I think I have a "complete collection" of some kind on there, but I don't remember just now if only her children's books or if it includes her adult novels as well...DawnTreaderhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04533307672147117843noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1949425054295660529.post-60899287288314454752017-04-06T14:17:04.462+02:002017-04-06T14:17:04.462+02:00Goodness!!

That's a lot of books - imagine you had them all as physical books, you would need an extra room in your house just for them :-)<br />I used to have ca. 80 books on my kindle but often delete the ones I have read, knowing I will never read them a second time. But some I keep, and download new ones every now and then, so that there are currently around 70 books on it.Librarianhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05704656564078750607noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1949425054295660529.post-55856749698856541252017-04-06T07:26:41.392+02:002017-04-06T07:26:41.392+02:00I wanted to buy this book for my kindle, so I look...I wanted to buy this book for my kindle, so I looked it up on amazon. I laughed when I saw that I had purchased it (free) in May 2016 and looked at your blog for that month and saw that you had posted something about Nesbit on the 25th of May.I did not discover her books until I was in my 30s and then the books about the WouldBeGoods were the first ones. I love her books! She had a great talent and lovely sense of humor. I bought this book last May but have not read it yet and now it is at the top of my list. I find it incredible that I have over 1,500 books on my kindle!Thickethouse.wordpresshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17187303460677067276noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1949425054295660529.post-43253212122999101462017-04-06T07:06:11.340+02:002017-04-06T07:06:11.340+02:00They (and we) do indeed, Kay :-)

By 1916 the war had probably liberalised attitudes a lot. I've never heard of this book and I'll certainly read it - I loved her books as a child too.

Half of the novels I read are set in England and/or written by British authors, so the setting in England and the love story appeal to me. My post today is of another such book.Terra https://www.blogger.com/profile/04396481049075747940noreply@blogger.com
