The sadness of that event feels almost too familiar, especially with Spielberg's horses galloping around every media corner.<br /><br />However, reading what these H.G. reviewers write about "My Dear . . ." I really feel I must read - or even listen to - Louisa's book. <br /><br />(Hmmm. Honestly hadn't thought of audiobooks as a reason for regular walking before, especially in dull weather. Thanks, Caroline.)Penny Dolanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16386668303428008498noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5502671101756463249.post-21073944713749499752012-01-27T10:09:59.545+00:002012-01-27T10:09:59.545+00:00Just ordered it thirty seconds ago.

I suppose I've been (stupidly) avoiding it because it's too close to what I'm currently trying to write and knew that something as good as this would seriously undermine my confidence. However, I now know, it's time I put all that nonsense behind me.
