The Flying Shadow
John Llewelyn Rhys📚 Handheld PressInteresting thought. John Llewelyn Rhys, author of The Flying Shadow (and others), Welsh RAF bomber pilot killed in 1940 aged 29, looks a lot like @TheRealLukevans https://t.co/bSfT7YoZaT https://t.co/YijZx8eYOl

Dreaming of Rose: A Biographer's Journal
Sarah Lefanu📚 Handheld Press@JaneGalt7 @DunnettCentral It's odd, ToT mentions all these authors RM's narrator keeps running into, doing their Turkey books. Am sure some have been identified, possibly by Sarah LeFanu in her 2003 RM biog? Or in Dreaming of Rose? https://t.co/wGIiLhtqMY

That Close
Suggs Suggs📚 Handheld PressKate is THAT CLOSE to beginning the book she was given by @CorshamBookshop on 21 Oct. Because she makes every book join the queue, no favouritism. (Except library books, they can jump the queue, they're needed by others.) #bookish #bookpile #toberead https://t.co/oNJM1icXq7
