OK, so some of this was work and some was just feeling exceedingly pissed off on a Saturday night combined with fond memories of ballet stories when I was ten or so. Also, I've not added anything and I wouldn't like to give the impression I wasn't busily reading away.

The list:

1. Haruki Murakami, A Wild Sheep Chase
2. Ulrich von Liechtenstein, The Service of Ladies
3. Philip Roth, The Plot Against America
4. The Lifted Veil, 19th Century Women's Stories
5. Bremner, Bird, Fortune, You Are Here

Polly Bird, How to Be an Effective School Governor
'Nuff said.

Jean Estoril, Ballet Twins
This shows its age--originally published in 1967--in its rather stilted prose. It's a nice story tho'. It's not mine: it was passed onto me for Looby Loo who will probably cope with it in a couple of years time when we've got through Ballet Shoes.
