I’ve been doing my best to get on the list for review copies for several of my favorite reprint presses. One is the British Library, and last week I just received two each of the latest books from British Library Crime Classics and British Library Women Writers. I am so excited!
The books from the Crime Classics series are two by women, one by an author I haven’t read before, Marie Belloc Lowndes, and one by E. C. R. Lorac, who is becoming one of my favorites.
The books from the Women Writers series are by two old favorites, Diana Tutton and E. M. Delafield.
Thank you, British Library!
Haha, be careful! You’ll soon find yourself addicted to BL books and unable to find time for anything else… 😉 Marie Belloc Lowndes wrote The Lodger, a great book that Hitchcock turned into an equally great silent film way back in 1927. So I’m very much looking forward to The Chianti Flask, and Lorac is always a safe bet.
Oh, I saw that movie!
Ooh lovely, I’ve read and reviewed both the Women Writers ones and they’re great!
My review of Mamma is scheduled for June, but I haven’t read the other one yet. Can’t wait!
