Sidetracked

Eric and Wanda have been left to their own devices for a bit in their small place in Italy. But it won't be for long, as my own European plans proceed!! Ka-ching, we spent the money on plane tickets, train tickets from London to Paris and back, and the London hostel. The Paris lodgings are yet undecided.

I have picked up The Women Who Wrote the War, - female war correspondents, primarily World War II. Wonderful, gutsy, women all so different in their styles and approaches.
(Aside: I rarely use the word 'unique' - one of the most abused words in the English language - I find if I do, I am being lazy, not willing to find more appropriate modifiers bah!)

I found three great additions to the library- the second Thursday Next, the latest Michael Jecks, and The Granny, which completes Brendan O'Carroll's trilogy. Happy dance for brain candy! And Robert loaned me another highly recommended cyber-punk sci-fi piece in exchange for One Hundred Years of Solitude.
