Well, Snowy (from Tristan fame) is also an option! lol I see you have a book review up, and I almost got it from the library this week! I'll come take a look, see if I regret not grabbing it when I had the chance....<br /><br />As for Eric Wright and LR Wright, don't worry! Even Canadians get them mixed up! lolSusanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09095246748581382752noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6145452263098688113.post-89534673497244230922010-03-21T11:16:21.769-04:002010-03-21T11:16:21.769-04:00Duh! I just saw the 'Wright' and Canadian,...Duh! I just saw the 'Wright' and Canadian, and thought immediately of Eric. Good thing I'm not a witness in a trial. :<) The Hamish books are quick and easy reads but they fill me with pleasure, even when the cases aren't so pleasant. I'm going to request The Red Fox from the library. Thanks again. Will you name him Wee Jock? :<)Nanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15547916206007733970noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6145452263098688113.post-64475650686205705672010-03-20T17:05:55.661-04:002010-03-20T17:05:55.661-04:00Nan: thank you! Eric Wright is another Canadian ...Nan: thank you! Eric Wright is another Canadian mystery writer that I haven't read yet, but have seen his books around for years. There are many more mystery writers than I would have expected! If he had a librarian as a character though, I couldn't say. <br /><br />I agree with what you say about The Red Fox. The more I think about it, the more I like that authentic feel. I hope you get to read it. When you get to the ending and the twist, let me know when you figured it out - I'd guessed about 3/4 of the way through the book. <br /><br />We're hoping to get a WEst Highland Terrier, all because of Hamish Macbeth! well, that and my husband's family had one too when he was growing up :-) I always wanted to move to the village where they filmed the tv series! I have some of the books, just have to get around to reading them one day.Susanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09095246748581382752noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6145452263098688113.post-64962996818703437592010-03-20T10:48:54.378-04:002010-03-20T10:48:54.378-04:00Those were really excellent reviews! Didn't Er...Those were really excellent reviews! Didn't Eric Wright have another series about a librarian?? The Red Fox sounds very appealing to me. Thank goodness there were books written then about the subject. It gives such authenticity. And Robert Carlyle was a perfect Hamish. I've been reading a little Hamish lately, and it is great to picture him as the character.Nanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15547916206007733970noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6145452263098688113.post-27074788852517970302010-03-20T09:21:29.029-04:002010-03-20T09:21:29.029-04:00Julia: thank you!
