New pretty things!
Yes, it's time for that good old post genre: 'What has come my way recently book & other -wise'
Two from Hereford Cathedral Library, but I can't seem to find them on Amazon, so I'll add them in a bit.
From Waterstones (Three for Two - great shopping!):
I read it when it was first published, and wanted my own copy for re-reading pleasure
Partly because it was simply there, and partly to lend to Bridget at a future date
You know when you leave a book somewhere halfway through reading it? My first copy of this was left on an Olympas Airlines flight from Athens. Along wit ha rather nice scarf as it happens. I also wanted to find out what happened to the Vikings in Greenland. It seems they died.
From Amazon itself:
Everyone needs a little bit of Trollope in their life. And it gives you a fine chance to say the word 'trollope' in real life. A simple pleasure, but a good one.
"What now for man raised by Puffins?" What now indeed.
