No 2 in the Royal Spyness series..

Quite the same as No 1. Nice to read, enjoyable, but not exceptional ;-)

To make ends meet, slightly impoverished but well-connected Lady Georgiana Rannoch takes on house-cleaning jobs in disguise in Agatha-winner Bowen's enchanting second mystery set in 1930s England (after 2007's Her Royal Spyness). A tea invitation from the queen, however, sets her on a new mission. Georgiana must house and chaperone a young Bavarian princess the queen hopes to set up with the prince of Wales, thus diverting his attention from his current American love interest. The princess proves to be quite a handful, naïve and addicted to slang. Invitations to the palace, country house weekends and swinging parties are provided for her amusement. When a series of unfortunate deaths arouses Georgiana's suspicions, she launches an investigation that culminates in a startlingly bloody conclusion. Fans will welcome the return of this spunky heroine, 34th in line to the British throne. (amazon)

CONTROLLED RELEASE NOTES:

Off it went to Italy!

Happy Travelling....

Arrived today... thank you!

Something fun to read is always a good thing. :-)

CONTROLLED RELEASE NOTES:

Nice mystery romp (second in the series) with Lady Victoria Georgiana Charlotte Eugenie of Glen Garry and Rannoch, aka Georgie, who has been asked by the Queen to play host to Princess Hannelore of Bavaria, the Royal Pain of the title...

Several deaths later, to say nothing of a brush with the English communist party, and relations between England and Bavaria might become strained.

Nice cameo roles by Wallis Simpson and The Prince of Wales round out this fluffy fun thing.

Off to the Netherlands!!

Received it yesterday! Thank you very much Kiki66 for the ring and Hayes13 for sending it! I am really looking forward reading it and will start as soon as possible!

I really enjoyed this book! It was an easy read, perfect to relax after a hard day! Surely not something exceptional but it kept my attention. I am definitely interested in reading the rest of the series!

Now it is on its way to Tsjara!

The book arrived here safely today.
Thank you Kiki66 for organizing the ring, and Alienagr for sending it so quickly and for the intriguing card from M.C. Escher :)
I will probably start reading it tomorrow.

This second royal spyness mystery was also an easy and very enjoyable read, with some great characters.
And there were a few clues along the way so this one was easier to solve.. :)
I will definitely keep an eye out for the rest of the series.

I already have Rossella05's address, so I will try to send it out this week.

CONTROLLED RELEASE NOTES:

Mailed the book out today, and is now on its way to the UK :)

Happy reading!

sorry, just started reading :/ going away for christmas but will take it with me so should be able to pass it on after the holidays, hope you all enjoy yourselves, take care.

CONTROLLED RELEASE NOTES:

on its way to UlrikeW.

Arrived a few days ago - I'm looking forward to reading it...

20.04
Somehow, the Easter holidays got into the way of my reading the book - I'm sorry about taking so long.

It was another nice and funny read with some characters that made me want to jump down their throats (Chief Inspector Burnal - *grrr*) and some hints that have Darcy O'Meara sound still more interesting...

Her Royal Spyness arrived yesterday. However, she'll have to wait until I have completed two other books.

2010-05-17:
Her Royal Spyness did not have to wait too long, after all... :-) I enjoyed the book, it's an easy read, and much fun. Hope there's more to come...

CONTROLLED RELEASE NOTES:

The book is on its way to the next reader. Have fun! :-)

Book received today, many thanks for passing it on DA-Cameron! I really enjoyed "Her Royal Spyness" and can't wait to read this one, thanks for hosting kiki66! :)

What a fun read! This instalment of Lady Georgiana's adventures was quite similar to the first one but I enjoyed it very much nonetheless. I can't wait to read the next books in the series:)

Thanks again for sharing Kiki66!

I already have penelopewanders' address and will send her the book on Monday.

Book sent to penelopewanders today, enjoy! :-)
