The Sunday Post, Issue #274: From Summer Colds to Classic Novels


Happy Sunday, Everyone! 

I think we can all agree that this past week has been quite bleak, especially for anyone who’s been keeping up with world news. I've been battling a lingering summer cold, which has slowed down my reading. I'm still working my way through Mark Greaney's Sentinel, so I've decided to hold off on my review of Taylor Moore's Cold Trail until later this week—at least that will give me something new to post. 

I also stumbled upon some older books at my local thrift store: Foxfire by Anya Seton (Sears Club Edition, pub. in 1950), Annie Jordan by Mary Brinker Post (pub. in 1948), and Three Romance Novels of Cornwall by Daphne du Maurier—this collection includes Rebecca, Frenchman's Creek, and Jamaica Inn (pub. in 1961). I found Colorado Without Memories by Harold Hamil (pub. in 1976), Bright Feather by Robert Wilder (a reprint from 1972), and Mary Stewart: Four Complete Novels featuring Touch Not the Cat, The Rough Magic, The Gabriel Hounds, and My Brother Michael (pub. in 1988). 

Yesterday, I picked up quite a few Western novels at an antique flea market. I won't list the titles here, as I’ve already covered that on my other blog, Gunsmoke & Grit. If you’re curious about my haul, be sure to check it out there!
