I thought it looked familiar!

Uh oh - ok off to read those thoughts…

I’d say it’d be worth your time pushing through, been thinking a lot about those 2 unpredictable ladies since finishing it

I really like that Mavor had the balls to write this book, it’s so unexpected but i seem to remember you described the writing as ‘precious’, i agree with you, the writing was too stuffy for my taste and probably loads flew over my head but i’m glad for the experience reading it!

Thank you so much for your kind words and your contributions! So glad the month ended on a high note for you!

Just read 2 serious ladies and i would describe it that way too, or maybe it’s the characters who are not interested in making sense and the book does in some ways? Looking fwd to the discussion!

Surprisingly, Agatha Christie & her miss Marple were knocked off their thrown this year and Lolly Willowes left the limelight. Some other titles you liked: Miss Buncle’s Book, Rhine Journey, Cranford, Miss Pettigrew Lives for A Day and Drive your Plow over the Bones of the Dead. #spinsterseptember

A huge thank you to those of you who participated, you made this month so fun & enriching. Some #spinsterseptember stats if you’re interested. Most read book was Excellent Women (2nd one was Hampton Cradnet). Pym was the most popular (followed by Brookner, Hanff, EH Young & Muriel Spark)

Yay for Lolly Willowes and for Spinster Autumn! 🙌💕

Thank you for your wonderful contribution Steffen and for highlighting these books 🥰

Ooh yes! Thank you so much Jennifer, bookmarking this for later, sounds 👌💕
