I know exactly what your MIL means, Shell, and found it odd in the
beginning, but I restarted it and then was off! I think it might be easier
to read rather than listen to, because I did sometimes lose the thread when
I wasn't sure who was speaking, but eventually managed to just accept that.
However, I would gladly accept a text version of Bring up the Bodies. Thank
you so much for your kind offer. I'm enjoying my kindle so much at the
moment. Am just about to start The Homemaker by Dorrothy Canfield Fisher,
and really looking forward to it.
Last month I also finished Anthony Horowitz's The House of Silk - another
Sherlock Holmes story. Horowitz rather brilliantly managed to capture the
style and mood of Conan Doyle, and for me he really pulled it off.

June, I hear conflicting reports of the book. A lot of people seemed to say
it was very hard going, so I didn't give it a try.
My MIL said something about it being written in a strange way, but I didn't
get round to asking her what she meant.
I have the second book as text if you're interested.
Shell.
