    Arlene, there is busy, and busy doing very little. That isn what I have done today, a bit of Sudoku, then we went out to see my nephew for an hour. That all changed and we stayed for much longer and I couldn't do anyrthing at all. Now I am catching up on email but going to get my meal shortly. Has gone very dark here, probably another bout of heavy rain when it was supposed to be nice today. Cannot win them all. Evelyn S

    Hello Arlene,

    I enjoy reading science fiction when I get the opportunity. I also enjoy reading fantasy, as long as its not too epic(which I define as stories that go longer than three books).

    So what interesting book(s) have you been reading lately?

    Well, thanks for the reply and I wish you a good day.

No time for more at tghe present as when I can manage it, some garden work is on the cards. Evelyn S

    Hello Arlene R, I have just come out of hospital today, for the 2nd time this year. Yes, I thoroughly loved Lick of Frost, I have loved all the series but this book gives you more infor to some of the characters and some of the workings of more than just the front stories Worth reading, have you read the other books, Evelyn S

I hardly get to read anymore because im busy writing but when i do read i want it dark and sexy and this fits the bill for now lol. I wont read 1st person point of view though. #ed person is my style so if u know of any 3ed person point of view that is like that and packed with jealousy then let me know ^_^

    Hi Arlene, it has been really cold here. Yesterday and the day before we had snow showers. Did not last but who wants it to? it is the end of March after all. I have started A lick of Frost yesterday and was reading a bit about an hour ago but too cold to go on. 70s sounds good to me, Evelyn S

    Hi Arlene, Have not been reading so much lately, too many others things going on. I just finished Dragonharper by Anne and Todd McCaffrey though and it is the best of this new partenrship so far, you can tell the 'mum' had a bigger hand inn the writing or son has learned to be more 'feminine ' in his writing of these books, because it read much better and more liek her old style.
