I was reading my copy of 'HHC' this weekend to keep me sane and perk me up during breaks from writing. I think the Vane/Wimsey books are the only ones I have on my bookshelf that are not university required reading but still have pencil underlinings marking out all the bits I love (I have all the HHC quotes you have here underlined, and to now get icons of them make me happy).
PS- I'm only a Wimsey fan from about a month ago, but I think it's gonna be for life. :)

if you haven't read gaudy night and busman's honeymoon yet you have incredible books to look forward to. its definitely a life long love. once you're hooked that's it. i grew up watching the BBC versions so i was shanghai-ed quite early. as peter says "its drilled into one when one's too young to resist". luck on your essays!!

Oooh yes, I cannot wait to read them. I am trying to save 'Gaudy Night' for my long train journey home from university. I keep going past the bookshop and having to stop myself going in, buying it and devouring it. I consumed 'Strong Poison' and 'HHC' incredibly fast, I have never been so feverish to get the next book as I was after 'SP'. No other books I've read have ever made me smile that much. I had never heard of either the books or the tv adaptations. I got into them because since 2005 I've been a huge fan of Harriet Walter and now I'm becoming totally enamoured of the whole world of Wimsey, not just Harriet Vane (though her mostly).
Merci beaucoup for the luck!
