hello Mrs B! Nice to see your blog and thanks for linking to me. Rebecca is certainly popular on this list when people post it; I wish I had put I capture on mine though, and I'd forgotten about most of the Persephone titles that I have read! Anyway, look forward to seeing more posts from you.
ReplyDeleteHi, Mrs. B!
ReplyDeleteI think you're my "literary soulmate" notwithstanding Pride and Prejudice of course.
Oh wow Peter, have you read all these books? I'd love to see your 15 books!
