Shaunesay I've got everyone all linked at the top to make it easier to get to your post for updating if you like!

I've haven't read much today myself, but I'm working on The Shadowy Horses by Susanna Kearsley which is an Archaeology, Roman History themed mystery that may have a ghostie running about, and located in Scotland, so all kinds of my favorite ideas there!

I hope day one has gone great for everyone, and good luck tomorrow!
