RELEASE NOTES:

2008 BookCrossing RABCK Release Challenge
The Ultimate Challenge 2008

Deepswamp, you are such a darling! Not just one RABCK,
but two Maisie Dobbs books together.

Thank you so much.
:-D

And thanks for the postcard and the
cute cat bookstring too.

PLW read and enjoyed this a few months ago.

Thought I'd already read this one as I've read a number of the series following it, but apparently not. That explains the long delay then! And then after reading it, I forgot to journal it . . . duh!

Anyway, it's another good read in the series. Builds on the first book and develops the characters. The plot is a bit unbelievable in places, but I guess we all forgive that with Masie. After all, the plot is probably not the main reason why we read them.

Now reserved for the OZ VBB.

Been sitting in the donations list in the OZ VBB for a very long time . . . but finally freed by amberC. Hope you enjoy it.

Arrived today. Thankyou

This is my first Maisie Dobbs book and I was entertained and engaged and would happily read more in the series.
