And at the end of theday it's also really well written. I felt shock to learn at the book's end of the author's death at such a young age.<br />Have you read any Sara Waters? I suspect you'd like 'Fingersmith' very much.<br /><br /><br />hope the fur family coped Ok without you today.<br />lilySailor Lilyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04001263373577461764noreply@blogger.com
