I almost bought Heresy in the supermarket yesterday but then thought I had it already. When I got home, I realised it was Rory Clements' Martyr that I already had.
Difficult to keep track of these Tudor mystery series...

Splurged on some NYRB Classics today during lunch:

Don't Look Now and Other Stories by Daphne Du Maurier
Tun-Huang, by Yasushi Inoue (which IS historical fiction, 11th c. China)
The Lonely Passion of Judith Hearne, by Brian Moore (I'm on a spinster-lit kick right now, "there but for the grace of God I go...")

I just bought "Legacy" which is the ebook/omnibus edition of all of Mary Stewart's Arthurian books.

I'm interested in what you think of this, I've read two of her books already and enjoyed them.

We are losing our Borders store too. Planning on making a trip there tomorrow. You never know what you might find!
