It is only recently my wages and the internet have made it possible for me to import more books from abroad.Dorte Hhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14535044092722418173noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3725252734697392575.post-44251740656275880952009-10-04T03:44:37.974+01:002009-10-04T03:44:37.974+01:00I don't think I ever read of this series, but ...I don't think I ever read of this series, but I do remember BucketNut - the beginning of the Eva Wylie series (vaguely)Kerriehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13581470363339796352noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3725252734697392575.post-42996009566764572232009-10-03T12:02:02.133+01:002009-10-03T12:02:02.133+01:00Belle, I also think you would enjoy it.Belle, I also think you would enjoy it.Dorte Hhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14535044092722418173noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3725252734697392575.post-65767004162534032812009-10-03T03:49:22.679+01:002009-10-03T03:49:22.679+01:00I like Grafton's series.

Perhaps this is just my view, but I think Loretta Lawson's almost-militant feminism (and that of her friend, Bridget) is a little dated. I find Lawson interesting in other ways, but not on that point.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3725252734697392575.post-82562518755276221872009-10-02T19:28:57.293+01:002009-10-02T19:28:57.293+01:00Margot: yes, isn´t it funny with so many books out...Margot: yes, isn´t it funny with so many books out there. <br />I think Kinsey and Anna are both fun, cool and independent women, and though the first book in both series is around 30 years old, they don´t strike me as dated. I have read two written by Joan Smith, but her feminism does not appeal to me in the same way today.Dorte Hhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14535044092722418173noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3725252734697392575.post-44732721694046293252009-10-02T17:38:38.372+01:002009-10-02T17:38:38.372+01:00Dorte,
