My post of a couple of weeks ago was concerned with new books, but some 'old' ones have given as much pleasure or more and have earned their Cornflower Blue too.
In no particular order then come Cynthia Harnett's The Wool-Pack (I read it here), Mary Stewart's The Crystal Cave
(it turns out I knew Lady Stewart's editor), The Silent Traveller in Oxford
by Chiang Yee (a man after my own heart), Rumer Godden's In this House of Brede
(which many of us enjoyed), and although I've yet to finish it, The Runaways
by Elizabeth Goudge. Each is special in its own way.
