Looks like I have some reading to do, especially those Russians. They're always so dark and ponderous, not exactly my cuppa tea (which would explain why I haven't read many of them, wouldn't it?)
Well I'm off to cook myself a bit of dinner, & then settle myself down with the next installment of Midsomer Murders courtesy of Netflix. I've hauled all my Caroline Graham books out with an eye to rereading them. I get these sorts of strange fancies when the weather is dark, damp & dreary -- the way it's been the last week or so. I'm finding out that I really need a light box, & possibly more medication. I can't afford either at the moment. 8-(
