Sorry, it was Ottakers Lorraine. But not such a bargain as I have just realised that I had already bought the Island and it was in a pile of ready to read. I thought I ahd checked them all too. Anyone not got it yet as i now have two copies. Ann Glos

Went to the library today and only managed to get Lady C, and won't be starting that for a couple of days at least, so doubt I will get through more than that anyway. Maz. XX

Nudge this up as a reminder that 31 August (Thursday) is review day. Only just started Lady C so not sure I will get it finished as it is a bit wordy and I keep re-reading bits. Ann Glos
