(Another post I had prepared earlier. This has totally been my Blue Peter week.)

Part the Third and last:

( 10 recs in Chalion, Pushing Daisies, Sorcerer to the Crown, The Star of Kazan, Timeless, The Truman Show, Venetia & While You Were Sleeping )

I did manage to do some small things for

I feel as if I've hardly read anything yet, but I think that's in part because I read a couple of longer stories, which cut down the totals for that brief window where it works out. But that promises a lot of fun catching up to do over the next few weeks (provided the planets and stars align etc. etc ( Read more... )

Surfacing briefly to say that Yuletide went live this morning and I got two gifts! They are both great and well worth reading and I am a happy bunny:

I'm still not recovered from last week, although probably some part of that was my fault for trying to make use of that family history offer over the weekend, but there we go. I'll get there, I suppose.

In the meantime, here's a post.

What I've just finished readingI have read the next two in the Kate Shackleton mystery series by Frances Brody ( Read more... )

(My friends came, had a nice time, liked each other, and went. I am now vv tired and also have not yet watched DW, because vv tired so catching up must wait, but in the meantime, one of two posts I made earlier; in this case my final Yuletide recs post. <3)

Somewhat belated, but better late than never, as they say.

( 19 recs in Discworld, Georgette Heyer, Howl's Moving Castle, Hundred & One Dalmatians, Jonathan Strange & Mr Norrell, King Lear, The Librarians, North & South, Northanger Abbey, Owl Service, Poldark, Timeless & Victoria )

What I've Just Finished Reading

I finished Post-Captain by Patrick O'Brian, so I'm now committed to the series! I'm continuing to enjoy them, and this one was probably less technical than the first, or I'm getting to be less of a landlubber. Highlights being the bear escape mentioned last time and when Stephen decided a hive of bees are a ( Read more... )

Given that I only do it about once every three weeks, and I was due, I'm going to be a rebel and talk about reading on Saturday...

What I've Finished ReadingI mentioned elsewhere that I read my way through MC Beaton's Daughters of Mannerling series, but I think I have to mention the evil manor house one more time here, because that was the best ( Read more... )

What I've Finished ReadingMostly Regencies! I was taken to a different library by a friend and it was full of them, what could I do? They're reading candyfloss and I can't help it, even though I know I'm the wrong person to read them because whatever it is I'm after, they're not quite it. Still mostly fun, though. I just wish the latest one ( Read more... )

Terribly late for me - and about half of these at least were still anonymous when I read them. And I still haven't finished going through the collection again. (The penalties of getting to read actual books, I suppose!) This includes a few from Madness (although I haven't properly been through that yet.)
