I started The Rebecca Notebooks a while back and really need to get back to them. And I also need to read All Quiet on the Western Front sometime as well-I'm envious--you have some good books going.Daniellehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06415242678720695754noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3958492963483272678.post-41048516240847004862008-11-08T11:44:00.000+00:002008-11-08T11:44:00.000+00:00How interesting.

My favs are Frenchman's Creek and A House on the Strand. I haven't read Rebecca but people who have love it to bits.<BR/><BR/>Hi Pat! You guessed I liked the book then? LOL!!! Seriously, it's nice that you understand how a book can really grab you sometimes. This one was so much of its time - the early part of the 20th. century. I saw My Cousin Rachel in the library yesterday and couldn't remember if I've read it or not. It does sound good though.<BR/><BR/>I must remember to look for that Laurel and Hardy book next time I'm in the library as I think I might like that too.<BR/><BR/>Nymeth... I know you've been reading some DdM short stories recently so I'm pretty sure you would enjoy this book too.<BR/><BR/>Booksplease: Look forward to hearing your views on All Quiet on the Western Front. It's a compelling read that's for certain.<BR/><BR/>My local libary has the Margaret Forster book but it's out on loan at the moment. Hopefully it'll be back soon.Cathhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06371069000185280668noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3958492963483272678.post-11206385307849918252008-11-06T13:19:00.000+00:002008-11-06T13:19:00.000+00:00forgot to mention ... i do have My Cousin Rachel i...forgot to mention ... i do have My Cousin Rachel in my tbr list, but have no idea when I will get to it!DesLilyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02582481597658080464noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3958492963483272678.post-17236566578624843892008-11-06T08:57:00.000+00:002008-11-06T08:57:00.000+00:00I just started to read All Quiet on the Western Fr...I just started to read All Quiet on the Western Front yesterday - so far so good.<BR/><BR/>I really must read Daphne Du Maurier's autobiography. If you get the chance do read Margaret Forster's biography - it is good.BooksPleasehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08721650104596705715noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3958492963483272678.post-82046627641336576112008-11-05T19:54:00.000+00:002008-11-05T19:54:00.000+00:00wow, I had no idea she had written an autobiograph...wow, I had no idea she had written an autobiography.

I think I had near the same sort of feeling when I read that old laurel and hardy book.. I was so ingrossed into it I didn't want it to end and it was a shock to me that I would enjoy it so much! I hear that in your voice too... a complete surprise and something you didn't want to end!! Oh how I wish more books did that to us!! But I am glad for the ones that do, and for all the other enjoyment they give usDesLilyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02582481597658080464noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3958492963483272678.post-37120505965962816162008-11-05T17:05:00.000+00:002008-11-05T17:05:00.000+00:00I've never read anything by this author, but it so...I've never read anything by this author, but it sounds like a good book.Jeanehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02270303640902731044noreply@blogger.com
