And, yet, if I have to wait too long for the next one in a series to be published, it irritates me!! I think I'm getting in the mood, though, to finally read The Lymond Chronicles and all of the Penman books I have -- I've only read SUNNE IN SPLENDOUR (which makes my top-ten list!)Lynn Irwin Stewarthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11902088926070471878noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5552020989914140175.post-262476172046588142008-10-21T18:24:00.000-04:002008-10-21T18:24:00.000-04:00Oh my goodness - I forgot about the Babysitter's c...Oh my goodness - I forgot about the Babysitter's club, and Sweet Valley High books???

Have you ever tried Cynthia Harrod-Eagles' Morland series? She takes a Yorkshire family from the time of Richard III all the way to present day. Right now, she's finishing up WWI--about 30 volumes so far. In some volumes there are even floorplans to show how the manor house changes over the years. I dole the books in this series out slowly because I don't want to catch up completely and be pacing the floor for the next one.Cathyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01774383554326288663noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5552020989914140175.post-11548865136444419562008-10-21T14:53:00.000-04:002008-10-21T14:53:00.000-04:00Alyce - it took me a while to give in to all the h...Alyce - it took me a while to give in to all the hoopla about Outlander - the time travel didn't appeal to me.
