I'm reading The Sealed Letter this week and just zipping through it! Kinda bummed that Map of Ireland didn't get an award, although just getting listed is something I suppose.
ReplyDeleteI haven't the Donoghue yet. How is it?
ReplyDeleteI just finished the Donoghue. I raced through it in 4 or 5 days (that's quick for me) :D. I'd say it was gripping!
ReplyDeleteI really liked The Sealed Letter; really like Emma, too, so great news!
ReplyDeleteOkay, looks as though I'm going to have to get the Donoghue...
ReplyDeleteYou can have my copy, Nicola, if you want. Just let me know!
ReplyDeleteJill, that's a very kind offer--but we just ordered the book from the library, so keep it, or share it with someone else. And thanks for making me pay attention. I've spent entirely too much time lately reading about trees :)
ReplyDeleteOkay! I will pass along to someone else :D. Reading about trees doesn't sound so awful :p.
ReplyDeleteNow that you're on the board, maybe you can do something to keep the cost of the Lammie Award tickets down to something approaching reasonable. $75 to attend - especially in this economy - is a tad high.
ReplyDeleteNoted. Thanks for the input. (Don't quote me on this, because my memory could be at fault, but I think it was less than last year--which IIRC [and I do mean if]--was about $125.)
ReplyDeleteMy recollection is that it was $150, but maybe that was the last minute price - $125 early bird thing. Too rich for my budget at the time...
