Ashamed to admit that I am reading an 'Agatha Raisin' mystery (m c beaton)
They are not good writing, but enjoyable and popular and they pass the time on the bus and in waiting rooms. My other book on the go is a Bill Bryson - on his return to USA (before he baled out and came back to UK) and he is a a literate gent and a very genuine bloke (met him many times when he was collecting eldest son from athletics training sessions).
Daughter and I visited in New Hampshire when we did a brave pre-uni trip -
I can't believe that I drove in and out of New York and all that way up to and through Vermont. Managed to find and visit Robert Frost's 2 homes.
