  1. @LizB I think the author of that column ought not to use the term cliche so lazily & inaccurately. (No, I'm not feeling at all defensive!)
  2. Going out on a limb & guessing the mysterious means by which the thief/ghost enters Twin Elms in THE HIDDEN STAIRCASE is a hidden staircase.
  3. RT @roncharles Interesting piece from AbeBooks about what soldiers were reading during WWI: http://bit.ly/qkQqi.
  4. RT @npbooks New post: Reflections on the Canadian canon by Philip Marchand: http://bit.ly/42Mvxc.
  5. @ConMartin I'd already been thinking about Saxonberg in MIXED-UP FILES, but I've not read LIMNER'S DAUGHTER. Will add it to my list. Thanks!
  6. @sixboxes I was hoping that! I've got BAT IN BUNK 5 lined up to read next.
  7. @sixboxes Hee. Ms. Finney is incredibly annoying. I can't help but think I must have felt that as a kid too but I can't remember.
  8. Whatever magic THE CAT ATE MY GYMSUIT may have had for me as a kid is gone. I'm not relishing this reread. #shelfdiscovery challenge
  9. Looking forward to trying these recipes: RT @lucywaverman Indian cooking without the labour in Globe this weekend. http://bit.ly/GEXKO.
  10. V. thought-provoking post RT @sixboxes When can/should authors change something after publication? Who's done it? http://tinyurl.com/yhonx4f
  11. RT @HarperCollinsCa when harper authors collide: Stephen Fry on Craig Ferguson's Late Late Show http://bit.ly/3prb04.
  12. Sounds like an interesting lot, especially Indridason's latest HYPOTHERMIA: RT @guardianbooks Crime novels roundup: http://bit.ly/nEVef.
  13. @ConMartin My favourite was Flicka, Ricka, Dicka & the New Dotted Dresses. I wonder if my fondness for polka-dotted clothing began there?
  14. Picked up a Snipp, Snapp & Snurr book from library & am awash in nostalgia. Also Flicka, Ricka & Dicka. Anyone else love those as a kid?
  15. @fodden Thanks for the recommendations Simon. I look forward to checking out those authors.
  16. RT @Nymeth Lots of GREAT books on the Carnegie long list: http://bit.ly/RlVW2.
  17. Enjoyed my first foray into Dutch crime fiction. Will definitely be reading more of Baantjer's Inspector DeKok mysteries.
  18. Have begun Baantjer's DEKOK & THE MASK OF DEATH. Very puzzling mystery, very engaging detective. So far, so good!
  19. Can anyone recommend a reliable online retailer of Australian books? I'm after new title that isn't yet available for purchase in NA.
  20. Still relishing THE MOFFATS. Lots of lovely echoes of the early Betsy-Tacy books.
