REVIEW: A Fortunate Term

A Fortunate Term: Angela Brazil, Blackie

I hadn’t read a new Angela Brazil this year, so I had to get this one in. Set in the 1920s, I think, when cars needed help to start and war memorials had been built, it’s the story of two sisters.

Gosh, ages since I read this or indeed any Brazil. I like her books more than most people do. I think she had a holiday home in Cornwall? Explains why she liked writing abiut the west country.

Happy New Year's reading!

Happy New Year to you!

I have a soft spot for Brazil because I still remember how much I loved the first book by her that I came across, but there's no doubt that I have issues with her writing now.

Her having a holiday home nearby explains the strong sense of place in this book.
