Just finished "The Thirteenth Tale", which I highly recommend to all the
Jane Eyre fans out there.

Finished about an hour ago, Naameh's Kiss. Same world as her Kushiel's
series, but set several generations after. I suspect a few more books to
follow.

Any one got a few good suggestions? Reading the Thirteenth Tale made me
think about re-reading Jane Eyre or more likely Trollope.



Off to do my fund raising thing and then the grocery shopping and on to the
garden. Since it's supposed to rain most of tomorrow, I want to dig today.

I've been into really quick fast, light, fun reading and I'm right now in
the middle of something called Charley's Webb by Joy Fielding. It's not
bad and holding me. One of my friends has read each of her books and says
she liked most of them.

Jane Eyre sounds like an interesting re-read. I'm always a little
reluctant to do that with something I loved for fear it won't hold up and
I'll be disappointed.

I should be embarrassed to admit it, but I never did get all the fuss about
Jane Eyre. So maybe a re-read is in order. There were several references to
The Eustace Diamonds and The Lady in White, so I'm thinking I'll start
there.

I'm thinking that I read it as a kid. That makes a big difference in what
you believe is greatness.

Well, I read JE in my mid teens - at point were I didn't believe in romance.
Lust, desire yes, romantic love - hell no. I could see it was a great novel,
well written and all that, but that is about that.


DD is currently contemplating reading "Twilight" just to see what all the
fuss is about.
