I am on the fourth book already and hear there are two more and a film is being made too!
Anyone else discovered this or any other printable delights during this snow?
I always have to brew loadsof rooibos when I read any ladies no. 1 detective agency. I got hooked when I heard part the first book dramatised on bbc 4 radio, when I was on a long drive. I did read some books, but hearing it on the radio with the accents and entonation was fantastic.I did rent an audio-book from the library but it was read in "straight" Queen's english. I don't know how to get hold of it, but try to find the dramatisation played on bbc4.
I've just read an Anita Shreeve book ( titled Eden Close) and enjoyed it quite alot. Maybe you would like her too?
