Polly Great list idea! I love Fire and Hemlock


message 2: by Chris (new)

Chris Oh, wonderful! I’m very grateful for this – and I’m now sorely tempted to reread F&H for the umpteenth time. What a splendid reading list for new readers too – one to recommend. I may well link to this list in a blog post soon, with due acknowledgements of course!

You're welcome! Me too - even though I've already reread it once this the year :) Please do - I hope people find it useful.

Capn I haven't read my copy yet! How cool - thanks for this list, I'll be checking back. :)
