Arrived safely, thanks MissMarkey! It will be my next book after my current read.

On its way to ReetPetite.

Thanks Fifna. Happy New Year. Liked the postcard.

Together yet alone, the Misses Bede occupy the central crossroads of parish life. Harriet, plump, elegant and jolly, likes nothing better than to make a fuss of new curates, secure in the knowledge that elderly Italian Count Ricardo Bianco will propose to her yet again this year. Belinda, meanwhile has harboured sober feelings of devotion towards Archdeacon Hochleve for thirty years.
Then into their quiet, comfortable lives comes a famous librarian, Nathaniel Mold, and a bishop from Africa, Theodore Grote - who each take to calling on the sisters for rather more unsettling reasons.

Very much like a Jane Austen novel where nothing much happens apart from social events & marriage proposals.
Very enjoyable. Thanks MissMarkey.

Safely arrived. This was going to be my Oxford read but unfortunately want be able to attend so I shall enjoy the book and be there in spirit.

Being released as part of the downsizing chore that is hitting our household. My mountain range of books has to be trimmed down to a manageable peak

Taken away from Sunday's meetup. Had to have this book when I saw my friend MissMarkey had registered it and also after listening to the Barbara Pym Society talk at the Oxford Convention.

This has been TBR on my bedside table for months. I have had a dabble at it a couple of times but it has not engaged me, so time to move it on.
