So we’re on the cusp of Valentine’s Day. Hurrah! Boo hiss! While we don’t have a theme week dedicated to the art of lurve, we do indeed have a few topical items, some more conventional than others.
Monday: Jackie tries to find why Andrei Makine’s The Woman Who Waited did so for 30 years.
Tuesday: Michelle promises to be only slightly tipsy on Tuesday while she reviews Gerald Durrell’s The Drunken Forest.
Wednesday: Rosy Barnes interviews fellow novelist, Rosy Thornton.
Thursday: Hilary is seduced by Stewart Maconie’s love letter to the North of England – Pies and Prejudice.
Friday: Moira reviews Rosy Thornton’s latest book – Crossed Wires – a refreshingly different love story with no schmaltz, brooding heroes or icky bits.
Saturday: Rosy will present her long-anticipated review of The Guide to Getting it On.
Many thanks to Floridapfe of Flickr for the wonderful photo, Kissing Fennec Fox.
Just to say that the draw has taken place for Sadomasochism for Accountants. As there were so many entrants, it was decided to give away two copies rather than one and the winners were Christina Brunetti and Caroline Rance.
Thanks so much to everyone who commented and entered the draw.
That is such a cute photo. Those little fennecs are so well camouflaged, look how their fur matches the rocks.
A Crossed Wires review?! Ah no! I’ve only just got hold of Hearts and Minds! I’m so behind!
Oh good grief woman … DO keep up …
