Perhaps that’s why readers tend to hoard books. I have shelves of books that I shall never read again because I've outgrown them, but I have no intention of disposing of them. They have significance in my own personal history.

Someone on Tumblr decided that Harriet Vane, looking at people at a concert & judging if they're enjoying the music "correctly", is the worst sort of snob.
FFS, she's a writer. People-watching is what we do!

#JeanVanier 's *Becoming Human,* #LouisMarkos' *From Plato to Christ: How Platonic Thought Shaped the Christian Faith,* #DorothySayers' *Have His Carcass,* and #ClaudiaGray 's *The Rushworth Family Plot* (#4 in the best cozy mystery series I've found based on the Jane Austen novels).
Some great books for my crime collection arrived today. Vintage Dutch paperbacks from the Prisma Detective Series. Beautiful covers from the 50s & 60s and famous authors like #JosephineTey #DorothySayers #NgaioMarsh #AndrewGarve and more. Nice for the summer evenings now and my holiday next month 😎✈️
I never get tired of Sayers’s writing! In a book chock-full of untranslated Latin and French quotations, whose pages seem to exhale the very essence of academia, she retains her sense of humor and offers gems like this!

I love this line. It conjures up the mental picture of a deliciously rebellious, opinionated woman who is unapologetically Herself. That’s the kind of old woman I aspire to become!

Find myself with a not entirely unexpected pocket of time. Good chance to learn a bit from Dorothy Sayers.

Current read when my nose isn’t in another book for school: “The Queens of Crime” by Marie Benedict. I love that Dorothy Sayers, friend of C. S. Lewis, is the “voice” of the novel. Also enjoying the audio version while running errands. #BookSky #QueensOfCrime #MarieBenedict #DorothySayers #CSLewis

Need some recommendations for a good old school mystery series. Nothing too cutesy, not too scary, with a real good mystery riddle and a genuinely clever detective/s.

This is not an easy question. Jane Austen probably wouldn't say much, and Georgette Heyer doesn't look like she'd have suffered fools gladly. But based on quotes I've read, I think Dorothy L Sayers would be challenging and also amusing. #authoraugust24 #dorothysayers #authorslunch
