Dear Cindy,

Your thoughts on Falcon were interesting. Funny, for that one book you recognized, you found two more you hadn't read, yet. hahahahah. I haven't read the two DeMaurier books in the collection, either but also added them to my list. It's frustrating, but I love it, too, that we aren't in danger of running out of new books to read! All of these books available for me to read make me feel so wealthy!

Always With Love,

Lissi

Side note--I read Flight of the Falcon some time ago
and really enjoyed it. It's quite different from
Rebecca, which I see isn't in the collection either.
That's a classic. I haven't read either of the Du
Maurier books that are in the collection, though I've
heard of My Cousin Rachel. I'll have to add that, and
The Parasites to my ever-growing list of books to
read.

Dear Volunteers,

I've just checked and as far as I can tell, none of
the following books are
in the collection.

If you are interested in scanning them, please
contact me off list.

If you aren't sure of who will validate them, I'll
enclose exact return
postage and a pre addressed mailing label so you can
mail the book back to
me for validation. Then, if you want the print book
back to keep, I'll
gladly mail it back to you after it's been approved.

1. Deadly Climate by Richard Barth, mystery, large
print hard back 308
pages, should be easy to scan. Barth writes kind of
easy reading, light,
mysteries. This one Margaret and 3 of her senior
citizen friends take a van
she's won to Florida to sell because she can't
afford the sales tax. They
discover many seniors live in dreary conditions.
They attempt to start a
luxury excursion business but encounter deadly
doings at a nursing home.

2. 2. Friends for Life by Carol Smith, I think this
is a mystery or suspense
novel set in England. It's hard cover, large print
and 708 pages long. In
the little intro blurb a woman making preserves is
struck twice by a brick
and then her caldron of boiling fruit is poured over
her.

3. Verdict Unsafe by Jill McGown - hard cover large
print british mystery-
465 pages - Detective Inspector Judy Hill watches a
wealthy man on trial for
4 rapes ...

4.The Flight of the Falcon by Daphne Du Maurier  -
hardbound large print,
553 pages,  novel A tour guide taking an anglo
American group from Genoa to
Rome notices a vagrant asleep in a church doorway
and the suspense begins.
There is a different book with this title in the
collection by a different
author.

5. Eight Keys to Eden by Mark Clifton, hardback
regular print, 187 pages,
science fiction - a colony of scientists isn't
answering anxious attempts to
contact them. copyright This may not be a good
choice because I can't find a
copyright. The book is a Doubleday Science fiction
publication.

I'll save the information about any of these books
which don't find scanners
and put them on the list again in 6 months, when we
might have new
volunteers who might be interested.

Always With Love,

Lissi
