November Reading

40: Hallowe'en Party Agatha Christie [Kindle]

A quick seasonal read. Good mystery and characters, nice twists. 

41: Police at the Funeral Margery Allingham

This month's read for the Shedunnit book group I have joined. I like this club as it is online so there is less pressure to finish the book as you can join the discussion at any time. 
I enjoyed this book very much - I had never read a Campion mystery before, and Iiked the plot and setting of this very much. The characters were very good, and there were some interesting hints about Campion's background. 

42: Zennor in Darkness Helen Dunmore

This month's regular book club choice. Quite enjoyable but I think it would have worked as well as a family saga without the added DH Lawrence - I didn't think he added that much to the story. I did like the other characters, and especially that the focus was on life despite the war , which is not a perspective you often get in stories set at this time. 

43: Revenger Rory Clements [Kindle]

Really good plot of twists and turns! I enjoyed the character development from the last book , and the way it plays into the political backdrop.

I really like the Campion books particularly the ones she wrote when she was young and light hearted- the later books not so much. The BBC did a series of adaptations that were very good starring Peter Davison and Brian Glover

Yes, someone on the forum mentioned the adaptations, must see if I can find them to watch somewhere :)
