I've added it into my post. I think you got on better with the book than I did.Kerriehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13581470363339796352noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8273911883856580200.post-30130063133057541232009-12-06T01:27:40.047+10:302009-12-06T01:27:40.047+10:30Kerrie, I found this one in our rented cottage in ...Kerrie, I found this one in our rented cottage in Scotland this summer so I have a review from July 17th if you are interested in linking to it.Dorte Hhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14535044092722418173noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8273911883856580200.post-57414375781396382072009-12-05T19:46:25.144+10:302009-12-05T19:46:25.144+10:30I read another of the Alan Grant mysteries a while...I read another of the Alan Grant mysteries a while ago and enjoyed it a lot, but it really was dated in many ways. <br /><br />Thanks for the review.Marghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13508430635744720721noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8273911883856580200.post-43599202913256479002009-12-05T15:27:38.837+10:302009-12-05T15:27:38.837+10:30Kerrie - Thanks for this review, as always.
