The Emotional House
Authors: Kathryn L. Robyn & Dawn Ritchie
How redesigning your home can change your life.
The bathroom must always be clean.
Dishes, countertops & stove must be wiped down every night before going to bed.
Sheets must be washed weekly in hot water.
Really? Maybe I justr need a good clutter control book.
The Bird Sisters
Author: Rebecca Rasmussen
The tale of Twiss & Milly, who at the end of their days wander in and out of memory. Well-told, with intriguing characters and some amazing moments.
Venetia
Author: Georgette Heyer
Such comfortable regency romances! Enjoyed this with a bath. Sheltered girl falls for supposed rake. Happy ending. No surprises.
Wild Ride
Author: Jennifer Crusie & Bob Mayer
Very funny, demon fighting romance/drama set in a theme park. Loved it. Utterly unexpected.
A Grave in the Cotswolds
Author: Rebecca Tope
Lovely British murder mystery told from the POV of an underdog undertaker who falls in with a lonely housesitter. Many others in this series, but I wonder what POV they are all told from?
Must investigate.

The Cloud Atlas
Author: David Mitchell
Albeit a bit heavy on the message, a spell binding sequence of stories that are barely linked, but tell of slavery, biogenics and people using people.
Hard to put down in spite of the weight of the content.
Love his writing. Looking for more titles.
The Exile
Author: Diana Gabaldon
Illustrator: Hoang Nguyen
Basically, Outlander from Jamie's point of view. Haven't read Outlander but this was OK, not spectacular.
