A new author for me with the book set in medieval times and I just loved it. Thanks to Pete for recommending this author and series of books and I will certainly be reading more.
The Uncrowned Queen is a short book and more of a novella and is about Philippa of Hainault. I do enjoy Anne O Brien's books.
So I went on to read the next one which is the story of Alice Perrers, mistress to Edward III.
I enjoyed this crime thriller book featuring D I Andy Horton set on the Solent. I wasn't keen on this series initially but it seems to have improved the more books I have read.
This book was a Birthday/Christmas present and I thought it was superb. There is so much information written in a very readable style. If you enjoy church crawling I would recommend this book.
The Railway Murders by J R Ellis
Sorry forgot to take a photo of this book! It was nice easy reading but at times I find his writing, especially the conversations, a bit "stilted".
This was another Christmas present and I found it charming. Years ago I had a very tame robin in the garden who would always take meal worms from the hand. He was present for about 3 years and easily recognisable from a little white "eyebrow" he had and this book brought back so many memories of that little robin.
I was really lucky and managed to get the next kindle book on special offer for 99p! I love Elly Griffiths's books although I still miss Ruth Galloway! I am assuming The Frozen People is the start of a new series and I hope it is. It was totally different and brilliant!
Another Ladybird book on churches which I have wanted for ages and was given it as a Christmas present.
The second book in the Chronicles of Cadfael and just as good as the first!
In other news I've suffered yet another bout of cellulitis so yet more antibiotics. I still have no idea what happened to the referral I requested two visits ago as yet again I saw a different GP! I have another blood test scheduled for next Monday so I may ask the nurse.
At the moment we are back in Herefordshire having returned as soon as I finished the penicillin! So I'll do a few posts on the visit next week when we are back home.
