But we have two horrible weather days on Tuesday and Wednesday, and I hope to make another huge dent in Wolf Hall then. Extreme heat and humidity and all I'm able to do is READ.<br />JudithJudithhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06435116453270981662noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7543676375857581295.post-81064913851697123172014-07-20T19:19:31.978-04:002014-07-20T19:19:31.978-04:00JoAnn,

I think what made it a winner for me were the exquisite details of the family compound "estate" on the Vermont shores of Lake Champlain AND the heroine from a humble background who spends a summer there. Lots of action besides, but I found it a page-turner.Judithhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06435116453270981662noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7543676375857581295.post-87164774898761392772014-07-18T18:23:33.780-04:002014-07-18T18:23:33.780-04:00I know what you mean about needing your wits about...I know what you mean about needing your wits about you for Wolf Hall, it is written in a strange style which annoyed quite a lot of people but you get used to it quickly.

Leaving for Florida this afternoon... will see which is more appealing when I get home.<br /><br />Glad you're enjoying Wolf Hall. It took me a long time to read that one, but it was well worth the effort.JoAnnhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13691864361197071517noreply@blogger.com
