I did get to stay home- yeah for me!<br /><br />Eva, glad to hear you liked the Rayne book! I'm not even sure where I heard of it, so it's good to have positive feedback.<br /><br />Staci, I know!<br /><br />Karen, we LOVED the film. So very British and excellent, loved the setting, story and everything. We were surprised that it was humorous, as the preview made it look Quite Serious. <br /><br />Chris, I enjoyed Daphne quite a lot myself! Did you enjoy Princess and the Frog? We saw it recently, and I thought it was good.<br /><br />Lesley, I liked The Ghost Writer as well...hopefully I'll like this one too!<br /><br />avisannschild, hmm, too creepy. I'll have to see what I think. The movie was excellent and I hope you had a great holiday too.<br /><br />Les, I'm sorry you had to miss your trip, how disapointing. Farewell to the East End looks good, and the format seems to be a return to The Midwife.<br /><br />Danielle, sure that counts!! And I think you will like Daphne. I see that you were stuck at home as well - I'll be venturing out tomorrow, a little hesitant, the roads in my neighborhood are still lousy.<br /><br />Bonnie, I think so too! And we had a very nice Christmas at home, thank you!Tarahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07208766776468157501noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5040657217275018769.post-46665376985350034742009-12-25T07:36:21.710-06:002009-12-25T07:36:21.710-06:00What a stack of books...it's always fun to get...What a stack of books...it's always fun to get great books on sale!

I also have Daphne on my list of books to read next year. Such lovely piles of books. What a nice way to end the year. Nebraska is right in the middle of that same storm system that may keep you at home, so I can feel for you in terms of travel.

Plenty of books to read! <br /><br />Ooooh! I saw Best Food Writing 2009 when it came into the store. Looks like one I need to buy!! And Farewell to the East End sounds like a good follow-up to The Midwife. <br /><br />Have a Merry Christmas, wherever you wind up!Leshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08345657431432380804noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5040657217275018769.post-52285136633745057482009-12-23T17:57:46.572-06:002009-12-23T17:57:46.572-06:00Temptress!

I have resolved not to buy (too many) more books until I make more of a dent in my current TBR pile, but I really want to read both <i>Mrs. Woolf and the Servants</i> and <i>Daphne</i>. I'll be curious to hear what you think of <i>A Likeness in Stone</i>, which I read last year and found too creepy for my taste (though well written). I hope the movie was good and have a great Christmas!avisannschildhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12486477882148877317noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5040657217275018769.post-46283818922123963092009-12-22T16:24:58.139-06:002009-12-22T16:24:58.139-06:00Book porn, indeed!
