  1. I have Stella Gibbons on my 'must try' list for 2022 and The Woods in Winter is one of the possibilities. Any good?

    1. Oh, Cath, I loved it. I never really cared for Cold Comfort Farm. I have now read two of her books - the other being The Swiss Summer, and they are not comedy satires.

    2. Excellent, I've just grabbed that for my Kindle. Thanks, Nan!
