of course it buys happiness

Snagged at the last minute on eBay.  It holds recipes now.



My copy of Claverhouse, by Gordon Daviot, finally came!  It took two months and four days to arrive.  This verifies my theory that the postal services of multiple countries hate me.  The book isn't in great shape, but it's fine.  It has a musty, used bookstore smell to it, which I like in musty, used bookstores.  Not so much in the kitchen when I'm eating my lunch.  But so far I'm enjoying the story very much.

I haven't read The Privateer, but I highly recommend THE DAUGHTER OF TIME and her other Alan Grant mysteries - A SHILLING FOR CANDLES, THE MAN IN THE QUEUE, THE SINGING SANDS, TO LOVE AND BE WISE. Also BRAT FARRAR. Also THE FRANCHISE AFFAIR and MISS PYM DISPOSES (though I'm not as fond of that one).

I have read and enjoyed all of those books, except for To love and be wise because it seems sad to read the last of her mysteries. But by coincidence I am just about to start it today!
