Bookfox (vulpes libris), a small bibliovorous mammal of overactive imagination and uncommonly large bookshop expenses. Bookfoxes live in a wide variety of habitats, and usually find something to read in the unlikeliest places. They tend to hunt alone but often gather in packs to discuss their prey.

On Vulpes this Week

NEWSFLASH Check out Leena and Moira being interviewed about Vulpes Libris over on The Book Depository
MONDAY: Jackie reviews a modern mystery with the misleadingly cute title of Nothing to Fear But Ferrets. 'Disappointed' doesn't quite cover her response.
TUESDAY: Kirsty's next installment in the popular Russian series.
WEDNESDAY: Lisa tackles the pentathlon of torture that is Stona Fitch's Senseless.
THURSDAY: A spirited Soapbox from author Caroline Rance, in which she defends unlovable heroines.
FRIDAY: Mary reviews The Woman Who Walked into Doors by Roddy Doyle, a disturbing novel about domestic abuse, written by a man from the point of view of a woman.
SATURDAY: Leena ponders Quicksands, Sybille Bedford's memoir of bohemian life as a German exile and late-blooming author.
SUNDAY: Leena reviews A Soprano on Her Head, in which Eloise Ristad tells about some unorthodox ways to get past the many anxieties that keep most of us from reaching our full potential.
As ever, please feel free to join in and give us your comments and views.
