I know. I was just feeling rather lazy. I already had the book so I might as well just finish the book.

Viji | 228 comments Help needed for the task:
Lead Pipe: Read a book with any type of long, cylindrical object on the cover
Thanks.


Susanna - Censored by GoodReads (susannag) | 465 comments I think it would probably be easier for Lead Pipe to read a book with a metal in the title or author? For example, The Silver Pigs.

Viji | 228 comments Need book recommendations for the task:
Mrs. White - Read a book with a protagonist who is a healer of any kind (nurse, doctor, midwife, herbalist, "wise woman", etc.)

Thanks.


Susanna - Censored by GoodReads (susannag) | 465 comments Maisie Dobbs and any of its sequels.
The Murder of Roger Ackroyd
Any of the Brother Cadfael novels by Ellis Peters.
A Duty to the Dead and any of its sequels.
Medicus and sequels.

Thanks a lot, Microdcm. This thread is a real treasure trove.

Viji | 228 comments I found the Gas Light Mystery series of Victoria Thompson. The protagonist, Sarah Brandt, is a midwife.

I trust that this series would also fit the task:
Mrs. White - Read a book with a protagonist who is a healer of any kind (nurse, doctor, midwife, herbalist, "wise woman", etc.)
