They are less about literature and more about religion, and Jacobs has a decided view on his subject matter. <br /><br />:) I love the new Sherlock series, too.jenclairhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06046532245054911248noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-22616974.post-83919355477535833812012-02-13T15:54:09.399-06:002012-02-13T15:54:09.399-06:00A Visit to Vanity Fair sounds interesting.

I like her depiction of Mycroft, too. Didn't get to watch the movie last night after all, but I will be watching it soon.<br /><br /><b>ChrisCross</b> - Stefanie (So Many Books) has been reading The Dyer's Hand and posting about it; she reminded me how much I'd enjoyed the essays years ago, so I searched for my copy. Auden is both erudite and down-to-earth--a pleasure to read.<br /><br /><b>Caroline</b> - Laurie King does a good job re-visiting Holmes, but instead of imitating Watson's style of story-telling, she lets Mary Russell recount the adventures of Holmes' later life. The adventures have a more feminine view point and are more expansive.

Thanks for the suggestions. <br />I enjoyed the BBC mini-series quite a bit. I thought it worked well in modern day London.Carolinehttp://beautyisasleepingcat.wordpress.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-22616974.post-4294132959179585332012-02-11T02:52:12.218-06:002012-02-11T02:52:12.218-06:00The Dyer's Hand has been on my TBR list for so...The Dyer's Hand has been on my TBR list for some time - just need some cash to buy it! People keep recommending Laurie King to me, so maybe I'll get one from the library when I take books back later today.Christine Hardinghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09814026435889782750noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-22616974.post-86891771338951778732012-02-10T19:22:01.588-06:002012-02-10T19:22:01.588-06:00Jenclair, I love the Laurie King books too!!!
