I enjoyed them all - Kate's backwards/forwards in time style annoys me at times and I am always on the list at the library for Tracy's newest release. The book about Harold's trek up and down the main roads of England really kept me interested from the first page to last <br />Take care<br />CathyAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3573997081449536840.post-52174527814858953762015-03-01T18:50:37.299+00:002015-03-01T18:50:37.299+00:00I've read most of them but on so many levels I...I've read most of them but on so many levels I really enjoyed Harold.<br /><br />I love to hear how you are making lemonade in the night time absence of your good man.<br /><br />XO<br />WWWWisewebwomanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15281689872840844191noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3573997081449536840.post-55458275502155146092015-03-01T18:21:30.942+00:002015-03-01T18:21:30.942+00:00I got stuck in the Kate Morton book.

I loved Kate Morton's books; I also read The House at Riverton, but didn't like it as much as the other two. The Unlikely Pilgrimage of Harold Fry was excellent, wasn't it? Besides my usual detective fiction, I read "All the Light We Cannot See" a couple of weeks ago. I highly recommend it, though it takes place during WWII, so naturally it's not all light and happiness. If you do enjoy mysteries or detective stories, I really, really like Deborah Crombie's Gemma James/Duncan Kincaid series.Rosehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01384059342847120951noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3573997081449536840.post-12610350598861224072015-02-28T00:59:06.653+00:002015-02-28T00:59:06.653+00:00Your list sounds like a good one to consult when l...Your list sounds like a good one to consult when looking for that next book to read.
