6 June 2012
It feels good to get back to some of my daily posts -- I haven't done them in ages! So, for this week's w.w.w. Wednesdays, here are my responses.
I am currently reading Below Stairs by Margaret Powell. It is the memoir of a classic kitchen maid whose story was the influence for "Upstairs/Downstairs" and "Downton Abbey".
Just prior to this book I read The House I Loved. It was the story of a woman who refused to give up her home during the renovation of Paris.
I am not sure what my next read will be. I have taken a break from my Aunt Dimity books and would sort of like to get into another mystery but I still have three birthday books to read and they all look wonderful so I am not sure which way I will go -- I might just have to close my eyes and grab one!

The House I Loved sounds interesting. I'll have to check it out.
Oh, I really have to read this. Chris's Nanna was a servant, my Grandma had servants.

My wife read Below Stairs recently and thought it was pretty good. Not sure yet if I'll read it or not. My WWW:
