There's a lull after lunch when the dog has been walked wen we're to full of food to be very active and then it's tv or books for an hour or two - or possibly a snooze. I do really like this part of the day after all the rushing beforehand.

Penhallow is an odd one - I've seen it suggested she wrote it in an attempt to break her contract with her publisher - and is not the one to start with, all the others run along the same lines and are good solid cosy stuff.

I think I will start with her detective novels. Do you have any favorites? I am enjoying the Furrowed Middlebrow books, and have read two this month. I see their blog on your sidebar, I will take a visit there.Terra https://www.blogger.com/profile/04396481049075747940noreply@blogger.com
