The Fifteen Streets and The Round Tower.

Have watched the 15 Streets countless times as it stars Owen Teale.

Haven’t read anything of hers for years, will revisit as she was a favourite a one time. Each book I used to love more than the next. If I recall correctly one I love was something like a Dinner of Herbs?

I’ve just got The Hatmaker’s Gift from the charity shop. Really looking forward to reading it.

Even though I have the box set I am watching them yet again on UKDrama. I love them all I think I know the scripts! I'm watching 2nd episode of Tilly Trotter this week.

I love The Dwelling Place! I was sorry for the miller who was so faithful and such a huge help to her. I believe the historical background is true.

I like The Dwelling Place which is about a 15 year old girl who raises her siblings in great poverty after her parents died of cholera.

Oh that was my favourite. So sad 😥
I wonder if I’d feel the same about it.
From the Library I took out Clan of the Cave Bear which I devoured when it came out but I just couldn’t get into it this time.
