Just thought I'd look in for 2 mins I like the idea of having three books on the go Dryad I'm going to give it a go. One of the books that I've had for Christmas is Testament of Youth by Vera Brittain. I recently watched the programme with Jo Brand talking about Vera's life and as she is local I'm really keen to read it but I think now after reading posts it might be quite nice to have one of the lighter novels on the go at the same time or possibly a thriller as well. Will let you know how I go on. Not read any of the three you've mentioned Dryad.
Ginnie - You'll be glad to know Little friend Susan never causes me any problems.
Catch you later girls Billie
PS Meant to tell you Dryad I recommended that my friend bought The Guernsey Literacy Society for her Mum as she was from Guernsey and was evacuated to England during the war, it was a huge success and is now being passed round the family.
