[quote=""Margaret""]The Crystal Cave is a favorite of mine - I've read and enjoyed it many times.[/quote]

I read a lot of the book late this afternoon-evening waiting in the doctor's office with Designing Women and Dharma and Greg (two shows I never ever watched) playing in the background. I just hope Merlin is not permanently connected to those shows in my mind!

Ew. Hope the book at least helped make the canned laughter less noticeable.

[quote=""Susan""]The Crystal Cave by Mary Stewart...I can't believe that this is my first Stewart book. I've known about her books for ages, but just never got around to reading them. Yesterday I purchased the four Arthurian books in one Kindle book for $6.99![/quote]

I've got loads of her books to read, both the Merlin books and her romance/adventures too. They all look good.

Thanks for mentioning that - for some reason it never occurred to me those books would be on Kindle! The collection of four is only £4.49 here in the UK, bargain!

A Swarming of Bees by Theresa Tomlinson. It's k so far.

Adrian McKinty it's not, but it has its own gentle charm.

Shades of Scarlett O'Hara!

Who could forget the scene from the movie of Mammy vigorously lacing Scarlett into her corset so she could squeeze into this fabulous dress which I lusted over as a teenager

Finished A Swarming of Bees and I'm not sure why I was a little bored. I think it shows that the author writes mainly YA. If you like Sister Fidelma (same year, same start point) you are prolly going to love it.

I should go back to McKinty but... **sidetracked again... reading now Deadly Valentine by Jenna Harte.

You're welcome! That's the same price as in the USA and it most certainly a bargain!

I finished D. L. Bogdan's The Forgotten Queen, which I really enjoyed, and started The Agincourt Bride by Joanna Hickson. I'm also finishing up David Loades' new biography of Jane Seymour.
