ReplyDeleteI do enjoy a long train trip. Nice book haul for you. Happy Reading!
We were hoping to ride the train to Chicago next week, but it had too many stops. Reading on the train sounds ideal.
ReplyDeleteAnd Murder in Old Bombay....it looks fantastic.
How fun to read that one on the train! I bet San Francisco is lovely this time of year.
