About this deal

Darrell is rather scornful,and though she’s not as outspoken or unkind as some of their classmates, she finds Mary-Lou a bit irritating. On the other hand, if you’re bothered by even minor bad language or hints of immorality, or if you’re a fundamentalist of any kind (including atheism) then you might find this book disturbing or worse.

I love all Marcia Willett books and have just been re reading The Christmas Angel for about the fourth time.But I’m glad I re-read these first two, which reminded me just why I liked them so much as a teenager, and I’d recommend them to anyone aged about eight or nine and up who likes this kind of book. Marcia’s writing career did not start until she was fifty years old, and since then, has been busy writing novels. And that is just the work she has published under her own name, she has even written some novels under the pen name Willa Marsh.

Her novels are published in many countries and have been translated into many languages as well; these books have made bestseller lists in other countries as well. So it’s no surprise when the young man turns up as a guest at the houseparty, claiming an old friendship with the host. However, would like to know if she is contemplating a sequel to The Summer House as clearly there is the potential for another novel ? Having re-read many of my Marcia Willett books over the past few years, I finally picked up the one I was given last Christmas, ‘The Garden House’, which I had not previously read.You become quite fond of them, irrationally so really, but like you, I really liked our brown fridge/freezer and I’ve never liked the stainless steel replacement half as much even though it’s more modern and has more freezer space. It’s being managed by a Colonel and his wife, and they want to see how it goes with a group of young guests. Books on my Kindle often stay there, unread, for many years until I happen to be travelling and scroll through to find something I want to read.

Their previous acquaintance Dan Start, a journalist, pops up and tries to flirt with Peter, but she really has no eyes for anyone except David. As winter is coming, and although we have global warming, that doesn’t mean the winter will be mild.I too am partial to Christmas romances, not least because ones set in England are lovely and wintery and are a nice respite from our hot and humid Christmases. Then there’s Daphne, who is very pretty and nicely spoken, who continually boasts about her wealthy parents with their huge mansion and yacht. In 2023 I’m going to go back to re-reading the Regency and other historical novels, so as it’s close to Christmas it made sense for my last chosen detective book of the year to be ‘Envious Casca’, which goes by the alternative (and far less erudite) title of ‘A Christmas Party’. These books have been reprinted many times, and I understand a TV series has recently been made to introduce a new generation to Malory Towers. They are warned of some of the dangers, but feel that a round-the-world tour should not miss out such a large country altogether.
