hydrangea petals
dappled with October rust
moldering gently

I only really like hydrangeas at this time of year. I’ve been trying to find a way to describe them, and you’ve done it for me perfectly!
how are you getting on with Last Hours?

The hydrangeas in our neighbours’ garden are the most amazing dark rust – almost chocolate coloured. I think I’ll ask them for a cutting. 🙂
I’m not usually one for historical fiction but The Last Hours is fabulous. I can’t wait until tomorrow! How are you enjoying it, Sarah?
By the way, I went Waterstones in Norwich to see Laura Purcell, which was interesting, and I’m delighted that she is writing another Gothic novel. I loved The Silent Companions. The Pigeonhole has a great variety of fiction and so far I have only read one which I didn’t enjoy.

I didn’t really get on with the Silent Companions. I’m not a massive fan of that kind of Gothic thing. I managed to get the Ken Follett, and I loved that, and I am really enjoying the Last Hours. I like a bit of historical fiction, but I’m rather fussy about how it sounds. If the writer misjudges the language, it ruins it for me.
