Snowfed Waters
I have been enjoying Snowfed Waters as bedtime reading while we have been going through the turmoil of moving house. Reading this novel has given welcome periods of tranquillity. The author is to be congratulated on writing such a good story. I think that writing dialogue is very difficult but she has mastered it. I am convinced this would also make a good play or it could even be the inspiration for a block-buster film in the style of The Best Marigold Hotel but aimed at a much younger audience who would identify with the adventure. I definitely think it is worth great acclaim.

50 Camels and She's Yours
A book well worth 50 camels. The launch at Heffers bookshop showcased the ability of each writer, who read excerpts from their chapters and had the audience by turns laughing and also slightly anxious – maybe that was just me – about the extreme situations they find themselves in, especially Jane, who describes being stuck in a very deep cave in Nepal.

A Glimpse of Eternal Snows
I picked up 'A Glimpse Of Eternal Snows' while in Pokhara, Nepal, this April. I have not cried and smiled through a book in a long time, but this one worked magic on my heart. Thank you for making David the centre of this book, he has brought me so much joy this past month. I often think of his chuckles and his love for chaos and smile to myself as I imagine him delighting in them, and I will continue to do so every time I experience chaos around me. What a legend he is !
It will soon be monsoon where I am, and I can't wait for David to 'wee on us' as Alexander said in the book.
