And the Rankin video too, interesting!, from which I clicked to see the Aye Write video of Rankin in Glasgow, another good one for me. Also great reviews. The one of Mina's Field of Blood had some good words in it about what makes it stand above the others, a very good book for that reviewer, and that says it all, for me too "....It’s rich in context and characterization, but it’s not overwritten, pedantic, or [Bobbie took out other author mentioned] just one damned thing after another with intermittent pornography." Rohan Maitzen's review. Good words, for me!<br /><br />And some others I haven't read yet which are on my shelves, or which I need to find, thanks for those, also!<br /><br />Thanks, Donna, good Scots Friday post! :-) <br /><br />BobbieBobbiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12489240376198748579noreply@blogger.com
