19. "Consequences" by R.C. Bridgestock

Nov 2021

A local writing team. We had one of their books at our book group - and no-one liked it! But I'm giving them one more chance.

Earlier in the week I finished "Bats In The Belfry" by ECR Lorac - a reprint from the thirties. I find these novels from the "Golden Age" a bit hit & miss but this was a good one. I shall be looking out for more by this author.

I just finished "A Mind to Murder" the second Dalgleish mystery by PD James. Enjoyable. Some of the Dalgleish novels have been adapted for a new TV series - it's very good. I presume that at some time it will be available in the US.

A sort of literary adventure later in the week. We are visiting Grassington which stands in for "Darrowby" in the new TV adaptation of "All Creatures Great & Small". For those who follow the books or series, we shall be staying in "The Drovers".

Just over 3 weeks to my booster jab!

Keep reading one and all.
