I'd quite like to hear about a strange little book by a well-known author -- sounds intriguing.

Like you, I wanted to jump into the computer and tell them all how wonderful Cold Comfort Farm is - they must all read it! And what a lovely idea about Claire and me doing a podcast - definitely something we should consider, although I don't want to step into Simon and Gav's territory... hmm...<br /><br /><b>Susan</b> - very true! This one is even more obscure than usual, although I have done a scout around and there are secondhand copies available. More in the US than the UK, actually, despite it being a British book.<br /><br /><b>Mystica</b> - of course! Although I do doubt there will be any copies in Sri Lanka...<br /><br /><b>BookClub</b> - thank you :) And thank you for the link, I shall check out your podcasts later - I think I've been converted to the merits of audible blogging!<br /><br /><b>Peter</b> - hmm, good question. I think I enjoyed the obscure one more, but the well-known title is better.StuckInABookhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10017836017530130716noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-446727280609751914.post-70318958829680535942011-11-29T05:33:54.697+00:002011-11-29T05:33:54.697+00:00Give us the book you enjoyed most!Give us the book you enjoyed most!dark pusshttp://morganas-cat.tumblr.com/noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-446727280609751914.post-67715511395919943702011-11-29T05:27:05.004+00:002011-11-29T05:27:05.004+00:00Do the obscure one!

I'm looking at stacks of books right now that I must go through and cull. I was very heartened to hear that a 450 TBR list is quite reasonable.<br /><br />I also loved the idea of having a "fire shelf." It would be a good exercise to see what books really matter to me -- I'll have to put one together.<br /><br />I just about jumped out of my chair at, "have you read Cold Comfort Farm? no, have you read it? have you read it? I wanted to jump in the conversation and say "good grief, read it, it is hilarious."<br /><br />So many other thoughts about the podcast...but I'll close with this idea... You and Claire would make a great team to do this sort of conversation. I liked the email exchange you posted a few days ago. How 'bout making future conversations a podcast??Margaret Wnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-446727280609751914.post-26656800181915148132011-11-29T01:22:54.345+00:002011-11-29T01:22:54.345+00:00utterly obscure of courseutterly obscure of courseRuthhttp://www.craftypeople.wordpress.comnoreply@blogger.com
