I'll likely reread them all over the next year. They are so much fun. I also just noticed that there are two series available on DVD, so I might rent them.<br /><br />Paperback Frenzy went down just this week. Lee (the person who ran it) had other responsibilities and taking care of the site was becoming a burden. Time constraints and overcommitment were the only reasons the site was disbanded.Beth Fhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08627666337961326265noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3291822984443127930.post-70983898994466871642009-04-15T04:26:00.000-04:002009-04-15T04:26:00.000-04:00I really must read this!

Even over some 80 yearts and an ocean away, people change so little, if at all. I'm also especially pleased that there's another vermouth reference to add to our growing collection.
