Ann I have found all the ones that are set in more than one period quite difficult to follow I liked the look of Labyrinth, the period interests me, I won't give up ;-)) |

Joy Of course anyone is welcome to join. If you look at the list and want to vote you can vote for two of the nominated novels and one of the classics. You don't have to read them all if you don't want to. We will be reviewing them around the end ofthe month. When the vote is complete I will put up another thread with the results and date for review. Ann glos |
