Susan P,

Looking at this list of favorites and the total list of 68 made me realize how many new authors you introduced me to. I really am very grateful to you for both the book group and your blog posts about your current reading.
The Go-Betweens by L.P. Hartley was one of my favorites, and caused me to go on and read more Hartley. There are few pleasures better than finding a new author to explore and enjoy.

That does it...I have to read All Passion Spent this winter!

I'm wondering how many people (including me) you introduced to Sue Gee ... I loved Mysteries of Glass and I've just bought Trio as a present for a friend.
Always loved seeing what you'd choose - and how you'd tie in the cake!

Alice C

I am quite impressed with myself that I have read 9 out 15!

A Month in the Country had a very profound effect on me when I read it shortly after it was published. I think now that a residual memory of that book informed my reading many years later of The Mysteries of Glass which I loved and think should be made into a film.

Cornflower

Indeed!

Cornflower

Yes, do, Darlene.

I am just so pleased that after every "you must read Sue Gee" post, lots of people have come back and told me they enjoyed her greatly. We must keep on spreading the word!

Cornflower

Oh, wouldn't that be good!

Anji

Wow! I am surprised by how many of the list I have read and enjoyed.
