I only wish I had saved those paperbacks, but I took them all to the used bookstore one day in a fit of decluttering. I do have Brother Cadfael's Herb Garden, which is a beautiful book even for those not particularly interested in herbs. And I didn't know about Brother Cadfael's Book of Days, but I'm adding that one to my list.<Entangledhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07261805004615133289noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8488599.post-47531889918674273502007-10-01T01:52:00.000-04:002007-10-01T01:52:00.000-04:00Your review is interesting and has certainly made ...Your review is interesting and has certainly made me want to read this series of books as I love mystery books.<BR/>The book cliub is an excellent idea and I have thoroughly enjoyed reading everyone's reviews. sara from farmingfriendsAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8488599.post-36223077961176987532007-09-25T10:38:00.000-04:002007-09-25T10:38:00.000-04:00Hi Carol, I have written about A Hoe Lot of Troubl...Hi Carol, I have written about A Hoe Lot of Trouble on my blog www.gardenhistorian.blogspot.com<BR/>Please add me to the list of reviewers.<BR/><BR/>I love the book club, Thanks.kjohnsonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02344820709410403592noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8488599.post-66159580734779178552007-09-24T22:43:00.000-04:002007-09-24T22:43:00.000-04:00Mr. McGregor's Daughter...

Maybe now that I enjoy gardening I will find it more interesting.

I'm actually into midieval mysteries, which is how I found this series. (If you really want to stumble over names, try the Sister Fidelma ancient Ireland mysteries by Peter Tremayne.) This Winter I intend to try some of the garden mysteries that bloggers suggest.
