LapReader I‘m reading Grey Wolf at the moment. 2d
Teresereading I‘m puzzled, I recall there was a November readalong of Louise Penny (any book) but now I can‘t find who posted 2d
Teresereading @lapreader are you part of that readalong? 2d
LapReader It was the Canada book club. I‘m in. 2d

She had been teaching at Stonesmere Primary School for twenty years - the headmaster had held a small, excruciating tea party in her honour - and though she would only admit it to Justin and Martha they were her favourite class yet.

Cats have always played a large part in my life, first as a boy in Glasgow, then as a practising veterinary surgeon and now in my retirement, they are still there, lightening my days.

Teresereading @jeg I probably read it a decade too late,uber gothic. But there are some storylines that don‘t hold up to modern sensibilities…. 1mo

City of the Mind was superb. London seen through an architect's life and the histoicalel layers and lives of the site he is working on.
Enthralling mix of past and present (1990s)
