Thanks Susan with numbers. I will (try to ) remember this if there is ever a book I just can't get.

Had another email from the library today. Picture Perfect is back from its wandering and is ready for me to collect.!!!!

If I am okay tomorrow, I will try again.

Keep your fingers crossed for me please, that I don't have another wasted journey.

Maybe you should phone them to make sure before you go. I bet the first assistant didn't look in the right place and it was there all the time.

Ann, I waited around for a while, so that they could search all the shelves (in the back office) were the reserved books are kept.
Two of the assistants claim that they did a thorough search.

I probably will phone first though, just to be on the safe side,

Went to Central Library on Saturday and got Pic. Per.

So now have both books.
Am reading Red Queen at the moment, keep wanting to cross ref. with White Queen, to compare what each was doing at certain times (but far too lazy!).

Well I've read (and reviewed) Picture Perfect but no sign of the Red Queen yet. So I went into the library today (to return Picture Perfect) and asked about my reservation----- to be told that I am 97th on a list of 156!!! The librarian said that there are lots of copies so it won't take as long as you might think.... :(((

Just need patience then Helen. That is why I decided to buy it, reservations of new books are horrendous.

Just a little note to people in the UK

"The Little House" which was a book we read a few months ago, has now been dramatised.
It is being shown in two parts, the first is tomorrow evening at 9.pm on ITV 1

Beware though, according to the Radio Times they will we showing a trailer at the end of part one, which gives the game away, so spoils part two.

Hi Ann, I don't know if it was good or not as I didn't watch it!

Just wanted to bring it to the attention of the other Greaders in the UK.

Will have to ask around (friends and family) to see if anyone else watched it.
