It’s a big week for newly published books and I’ll post reviews of the first three books on the list over the next few days. The Frozen Lake I absolutely loved. In fact I missed a whole evening of fave TV programmes (the only evening, I should say), because I couldn’t stop reading it. Couldn’t put it down!
I was rather tired of reading new books for review and also rather low, so I hid away in the comforting world of Smockfarthing. I will never understand why Grace James’ charming, funny books are not more widely known. I know about three people who love John and Mary as much as I do, which is not many for a series of twenty lovely books.
