Just had Charles III - the inside story delivered (it was half price on Amazonia, that's my excuse  ) but I've got to finish The Princes in the Tower by Philippa Langley first, and that's a real whodunnit 
My bookcase is filling up quickly, since I stopped watching much on the box

Just read one of the Shetland novels that I picked up on a charity table the other day. Really enjoyed it, was called Blue Lightening by Ann Cleeves. Will go and search out more of them now. Not read any of hers before. I like the tv series so this was a bit of a puzzle to place it within what I’ve seen on screen

Hey Snows, that Shetland quartet looks superb!

I must have spent zillions with World of Books, and now they have another tenner!   

Thanks so much for the info - it's what we all do here with exploring new reading, as like Mum, our TV is only rarely peered at these days!

A gentle plea for help,  can anyone tell me how to download "The Bird of Dawning" by John Masefield as an audiobook?  I listened to it in serial form via the World Service many years ago.

Free would be nice!
Cheers,  Tony.

I finished the Strike novel  "The Silkworm".    I found lots of clues whilst reading, so I was fairly sure, who done it    Mrs B

Last week I read Let Sleeping Cats Lie, by Brian Bilston, funny pet poems,
and now I'm nearly finished Bruised Sole (that is the correct spelling  ) the book is heartbreaking in places, what this young man has gone through.

(He makes fascinating viewing on youtube if anybody is interested, https://www.youtube.com/c/TheHoofGP )

I love Brian Bilston's poems. I gave the Let Sleeping Cats lie book to a couple of people for presents this year.

His book of a poem every year is also worthwhile, both funny and thought-provoking.

If you have ever watched this delightful programme, you will know about "TED"

I have just read Ted's Pawtobiography.      Ted writes so well, and he says it as it is.  I couldn't stop laughing.
He does state that his writing is highly classified, and once you finish reading you must destroy immediately.
Either eat it or bury it.   Ted says he is not bothered.   I am going to read it again now.  His early start in life is amazing.    What a brave little fellow.   Love Him     Treat yourself, you will not be disappointed,  Mrs Bouquet

I just read...
My electricity bill came today, and I believe I've been charged for....
 sunlight, moonlight, all the street lights, and - the light at the end of the tunnel 

Seems about right nowadays, doesn't it?

"It is thought that Richard the Lionheart dictated journals when he was away from his wife, and had them sent to her, and that they were buried with her."
The book I've just started, 'Coeur de Lion' by Isla Tate, suggests that a few have remained in good shape, despite their age and have now been translated from Latin to modern English...
