Yes!! Except I’ve just picked up A Children’s Story by A Byatt and I’m already under the spell of her magnificent writing also I studiously ignored the next two Mantel in the Wolf Hall trilogy yesterday due a rather jaw dropping price, much as I love and try hard to support small businesses sadly my BA has its limits!

One Wolf Hall at a time! Looks like I'll be picking up my recommendations from you from now on in!

Thank you Barrie, I fear you’d be bored very quickly since it is rare for me to pick up historical fiction, The Children’s Book... (book not story as above) ahhhh, such writing is hard to ignore.

It is rare for me to read historical fiction hence giving it a go with Simon's tutelage. Thrillers are my go to 'easy read' and I am trying to read more (what I call) 'learny' books to broaden my knowledge.
