@BCPLibraries Q5. I just found this old piece of art I did inspired by Jane Austen's Sense and Sensibility. It was my interpretation of Marianne. #BCPBookChat #MyBookLife

@BCPLibraries #BCPBookChat #MyBookLIfe Main character or characters with a bit of naivety, who don't always make the right choices.

@BCPLibraries Miss Silver by Patricia Wentworth. Has all of Miss Marple's good qualities (all-seeing eye, kindness and knitting) without the nosiness which I wouldn't like to encounter irl. Miss Marple is runner up #MyBookLife #BCPBookChat

I definitely prefer cosy crime! Love Agatha Christie, Dorothy Sayers, Georgette Heyer, and John Bude. For more modern authors Carola Dunn - very Golden Age inspired and Anna Dean (Miss Marple meets Jane Austen). #MyBookLife #BCPBookchat

@BCPLibraries The Lion, the Witch and the Wardrobe. This is definitely the best book to start with in the Narnia Chronicles. I listened to a podcast called The Lampost Listener, where two readers who have never read LWW before read a chapter each time and analyse it. #BCPBookChat #MyBookLife

@BCPLibraries In general I never like adaptations of books but I admit that the earlier David Suchet Poirot films and Joan Hickson's Miss Marple were pretty spot on. Whereas I had to stop watching the recent Agatha Christie adaptations in disgust. #MyBookLife #BCPBookChat

@BCPLibraries Q7. Yes, and there’s plenty to write about – stasis, isolation and futility, economic consequences, learning how to be a teacher…#BCPBookChat

Loving these questions today #BCPBookChat ! (Personally I was a big fan of Orlando the Marmalade Cat by Kathleen Hale - and I'm still always imagining what rascally things our cat gets up to when we're not around!)

Q 7 Journal of the plague year was written way after the event. Perhaps we need some time for the events to settle before we try to craft a classic. #BCPBookChat

Q1 Little women. Beth gets the fever from the Hummels but doesn't pass it on. Wish I were so brave and selfless but would she have been seen as reckless in covid times? #BCPBookChat

@BCPLibraries I generally prefer a traditional re-telling but I do love Jasper Fforde's Nursery Crime series which are a twist on original rhymes/fairy tales. #BCPBookChat #MyBookLife
