Hurrah! I found you. Can you see me now? :-)

I was on a (fairly) recent trip to New York and just wandering around and suddenly, there was the statue of Atlas that Camilla compares her father to in A Live Coal in the Sea. So I know exactly what you mean.

Have you started to notice the crossovers between her books? Frank Rowan appears as an adult in A House Like a Lotus with Poly, who's Meg's daughter... I love these details. I'm not sure you've read enough of the books to have encountered characters in more than one context, though.

Yay, which two? I hope you enjoy them! I'm actually rereading Camilla right now because I lost my original copy and only recently tracked down another -- apparently it's out of print. :(

Haha -- your comment was actually the first I heard about winning a prize! And thanks. :)

Ooh. Not a very complete list -- I've got some that aren't on here -- but there are also some here I don't have. Thank you!

Most of mine seem to be children's books! Yes! x

Hello Hello! This is addictive one you get started!! And I second Dan on the exact edition/cover comment! xx

posted by lcsutherland at 8:15 pm (EST) on Jul 18, 2007

I'm finding that adding books is slowed down by my anal insistence on finding the exact edition and cover that I have (-:
