I'm trying to read as many books as I can without a 'squirrel' moment--so far so good. I'm back on an Agatha Christie--"Elephants Can Remember" Didn't know about this book. I am a member of an Agatha book club and every month, there is a different book featured--Many I haven't read--good thing. I found a free recording and you can access it as well. Listed below is the site. In fact, there are many, many free recordings on this site.
This is a short book; one can listen to the whole book within 5 hours.
I love listening to a book--a good reason to use your hands as your ears work too!
I just finished "A Girl Called Samson" setting is Civil War; went to Hollywood with "Severn Husbands of Evelyn Hugo"--Not one I enjoyed
Hit Paris with Ernest Hemingway in his "A Moveable Feast"--delicious reading; along came Great Gatsby author--Scott Fitzgerald--didn't know they were friends.
You can learn so much through reading
Now, I've moved into year 1377 with King Edward III--knew nothing about him at all!!
The descriptions in this book are outstanding--the leader through this year is Monk Athelstan and his assistant, the coroner of London Sir John Cranston, a drunk. This is a first historical mystery series--I read all of Ellis Peters books and loved them.
Not sure I would get into these characters but here I am on page 230 and wanting to finish so I can begin the second issue.
book is written by Paul Doherty, "The Nightingale Gallery"
Read on!!
