My quibble is probably Miss Read, so very middle brow, and some of her work much deeper than appears on the surface. Rather than her "normal" school and village based titles, I might suggest No Holly for Miss Quinn, which addresses issues like family ties vs independence, career vs marriage, and more tied up in a Christmas feel good package.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5595702824833504762.post-87290282418177502742017-05-13T09:23:59.670-07:002017-05-13T09:23:59.670-07:00Oh, a quibble - no Patricia Wentworth?

I counted and I've read 35 of these, plus I have another 8 or 10 unread (this includes all the books I've ordered since you started posting the syllabus!). And I liked the article you linked to about lists -- that was another great list of books by women I must add to my TBR pile. It will never end.
