I have a bunch of good books going (Nancy Mitford's biography of Madame de Pompadour, which I recommend, and Dorothy Sayers,_The Mind of the Maker_ which is brilliant. I just finished A.S. Byatt's _The Children's Book_ (very impressive) and P.D. James fragment of autobiography, _Time to be in Earnest_. I admired it and I'm guessing you will have read it and liked it to, mystery fan that you are. Of course we are also running regularly to iTunes and trying to get outside on the sunny days.
