As you can see I have come to the end of the Dr Thorndyke novels and am now making my way through R. Austin Freeman's other offerings in this seemingly never-ending collection 😳  I must confess that I'm not enjoying these as much as I did the Dr Thorndyke books.  There are only three more left in the collection, nevertheless I think I may put them to one side for the time being and read something different!  I've recently bought a few new books, including the latest novels in two series that I really enjoy, so I'm very tempted to abandon poor old Mr Austin Freeman for pastures new ~ plus I still have a humungous pile of magazines to work my way through!
