Again, it's been awhile since I've posted. Here's what I've been reading:
BOOK 107 Aunt Dimity and the Duke by Nancy Atherton
This is the second in the Aunt Dimity mystery series and I enjoyed well enough to continue on to the third book eventually.
3 Stars
BOOK 108 Messenger of Truth ... The King's Stilts by Dr. Seuss
The Princess Academy by Shannon Hale
Dragon Prince by Melanie Rawn
Aunt Dimity and the Duke by Nancy Atherton
The Emperor's Winding Sheet by Jill Paton Walsh ... the Aunt Dimity series by Nancy Atherton and have having a wonderful time! I've read Aunt Dimity's Death and Aunt Dimity and the Duke. Next up is Aunt Dimity's Good Deed. Then I need to hit the bookstore for the rest of the series. Yeah - I'm really glad I discovered these. They're just right for reading between "have to" books.
20. Aunt Dimity and the Duke by Nancy Atherton - I found it interesting that this one takes place BEFORE Aunt Dimity's Death, and enjoyed learning how Derek and Emma got together.
Back ... ... put out by a library in Wisconsin. Here are some of what they suggested:
A Long Fatal Love Chase by Louisa May Alcott
Aunt Dimity and the Duke by Nancy Atherton
Jonathan Livingston Seagull by Richard Bach
The Copper Beech by Maeve Binchy
My Antonia by Willa Cather
The Princess Br ... #155 Aunt Dimity and the Duke by Nancy Atherton A light little mystery to read in the evenings in the motels. Actually read this all in one evening at Deming NM. Enjoyable fluff.
Merry Christmas, Susan! And to all of you, Merry Christmas, Happy Hannakuh, and Happy Holidays to all! ... the hole-in-the wall my Mom used to live in. Now she lives here!
48. Where God Meets Man by Gerhard O. Forde
49. Aunt Dimity and the Duke by Nancy Atherton
50. Aunt Dimity Beats the Devil by Nancy Atherton
I have about 40 pages left in O'Hara's Choice by Leon Uris, and I don' ... I am reading through my stack of Aunt Dimity novels. I finished Aunt Dimity and the Duke, Aunt Dimity's Good Deed and will finish Aunt Dimity Digs In today. They are sweet cozies, perfect for lazy summertime reading. ... series. Some of the later ones are very good, some are only pretty good. They all start with Aunt Dimity (the first one is Aunt Dimity and the Duke, the second (with Lori) is Aunt Dimity's Death), by Nancy Atherton. ... Sensibility by Carrie Bebris
4. North by Northanger by Carrie Bebris
5. Aunt Dimity's Death by Nancy Atherton
6. Aunt Dimity and the Duke by Nancy Atherton
7. Aunt Dimity Beats the Devil by Nancy Atherton
8. Aunt Dimity Digs In by Nancy Atherton
8 Historical Fiction
1. Last ... Nancy Atherton's Aunt Dimity series is delightful.
And if you liked the Monica Ferris needlework books, try the quilt-related books by Earlene Fowler. Very fun. ... poster who mentioned that L.M. Montgomery's books made her want to visit Nova Scotia and PEI in particular...
The Aunt Dimity mystery series by Nancy Atherton and anything by Elizabeth Goudge always fuel my desire to visit England/Wales, though I've basically always wanted to ... ... I have to agree that she probably does fall into your category of Cozy-British-Paranormal-Horticultural given the plot of Aunt Dimity and the Duke. I hadnt realized it until just now!
