karen.d Posted December 3, 2018 Share Posted December 3, 2018 Today I finished 'The Virgin's Lover' by Philippa Gregory and I really enjoyed it. I love the double crossing and scheming that goes on in Philippa Gregory's historical novels! It brings historical textbooks to life. Now I'm going to read 'The House of Cold Hill' by Peter James. My friend lent me this book, because she knows that I liked watching 'The Haunting of Hill House' and this looks similar. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The only book I've read of his (a very long time ago) is The Moon and Sixpence, loosely based on the artist Paul Gaugin. I can remember very much enjoying it at the time and have always meant to read more of his books. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
poppy Posted December 4, 2018 Share Posted December 4, 2018 I'm reading Around the World With Aunty Mame by Patrick Dennis. Am enjoying his sense of humour and the antics of the eccentric Aunty Mame. A very funny book. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It’s magical, opening something new by your favourite author, isn’t it? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
