A list of books I've read recently with some occasional gibberish thrown in.

DON'T TELL ALFRED - Nancy Mitford
This is the third book in the Fanny Logan "series" following "Love in a Cold Climate" and "The Pursuit of Love" and its one book too far.
Where the first two were full of quirky characters and poked fun at the UK upper classes this one has none of this.
Fanny is still married and her husband out of the blue is posted to Paris as the British Ambassador. The book revolves around events during this ambassadorship. There's smiles but no belly laughs, characters appear from the previous books but it is all a bit lame.
This was very hard work and not recommended especially if you loved the first two novels like I did.
