So I'm hoping for good things for The Long Song. <br><br>My biggest hurdle is getting all of these books in place so I don't have to wait for them to get here. Most of them I had to buy from Book Depository, but since they offer free shipping, it wasn't bad at all. I wish we could get books just as quickly in the US!NancyOhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/12027036137062767840noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1008954639175647714.post-65331457578457818902010-08-02T13:09:34.834-04:002010-08-02T13:09:34.834-04:00Wow -- good luck!I've only read The Long Song,...Wow -- good luck!<br><br>I've only read The Long Song, which was ok but I prefer Andrea Levy's other novels. The Slap is on my to-read list, the rest currently are not but I'm sure they will be soon....Suzannehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/17027628103746160956noreply@blogger.com
