The trouble is, there're quite a few excellent authors and it's quite difficult to get to them all. <br /><br />This 'time going so fast' thing gets a bit scary as you get older.<br /><br />Margaret: 21st. Century Yokel is one of those really lovely books.<br /><br />So hard to keep up with blogging at the moment. It's summer so we're in gardening and grandchidren mode right now. Everything else has to take second place. Ah yes... the Kindle black hole. I know it so well.

But I am reading lots right now - 9 for me as well in July. I also have a copy of Black Roses, but it's still deep within my Kindle! And a paperback copy of The Winter Garden also by her sitting on my bookshelves, waiting to be read for the last four years.Margaret @ BooksPleasehttp://www.booksplease.orgnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3958492963483272678.post-78441131900004750642019-08-05T00:09:11.453+01:002019-08-05T00:09:11.453+01:00Cath, I enjoyed looking through your list, and it...Cath, I enjoyed looking through your list, and it reminded me to add some authors to my list. <br />Betty Webb for one, and A. J. Mackenzie. <br /><br />I am having the same issue, the months are going so fast, reading-wise at least.TracyKhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08303342674824383688noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3958492963483272678.post-61348417708723177332019-08-04T10:26:00.297+01:002019-08-04T10:26:00.297+01:00Pat: It's a lot for me, but I did it in June t...Pat: It's a lot for me, but I did it in June too so I don't know what's going on.

Possibly a lot of its appeal for me was the Devon aspect because I live there and know some of the places he mentions. But the people in it are wonderful too. I'm so pleased you have such fond memories of your time here.

We often had to ride the train back to London with cold, wet feet but I wouldn't trade those walks for anything. It's amazing what you can see from that pace.Sam https://www.blogger.com/profile/17448913705757509608noreply@blogger.com
