merelybookish @vivastory I love Munro! I am hoping read and reread her books over the next year or so. I own most of them but this is one I don't have. 5mo

merelybookish @Texreader @Ruthiella I know! I was eyeing a few others and wondering if I should go back. 😬😆 5mo

vivastory “Something I've Been Meaning to Tell You“ was one of my favorite reads of '22. I'm eyeing “The Beggar Maid“ as my next read as it looks to be a collection of interconnected stories, which I love 5mo

TheBookHippie I‘m here to add more Alice love! What great find! 5mo

merelybookish @vivastory I haven't read Something yet but enjoyed The Beggar Maid last year. And yes, they are linked. So is her first collection

Lives of Girls and Women

5mo

merelybookish @LeahBergen Lol. I thought of you! 😄 I could have used your expertise. There were quite a few Stevenson books and I didn't know which ones to choose. So I did some googling. 5mo

This one was so good! Campion is beginning to be less of a fun but flimsy Wimsey pastiche and more of a character in his own right. The plot is fun, engaging and has a thriller-ish edge and a tense, action-packed denouement that marks Allingham out from her contemporaries. There's also a line of humour that makes it just irresistible.

Temptation!

Libby1 Sweet danger is right. 7y

charl08 For once I avoided a purchase. But it was a close run thing... 7y

LauraBrook I'd want to push the contents of both shelves into a cart and run straight to the checkout line! 7y

charl08 @laurabrook it's a lovely shop @ Liverpool Bluecoat. 7y

Ehh...sounds like an interesting sort of test, but how does it work, exactly?

Sweet Danger | Margery Allingham

Relistening to one of my favourite of the Albert Campion stories. If you've read Agatha Christie and Dorothy L Sayers and haven't tried Margery Allingham, you're missing out. Albert may have started as a bit of a Peter Wimsey send up, but he takes on a life of his own and becomes much, much more.
