    <about><![CDATA[I've been working in a public library since May 2001 and my &quot;to-read&quot; list has grown by leaps and bounds.  No one told me libraries were hazardous to my spare time!  I also have two blogs, <a rel="nofollow" target="_blank" href="http://www.druid3179.blogspot.com">my life blog</a> and <a rel="nofollow" target="_blank" href="http://www.druid3179reader.blogspot.com">my reading blog</a>.  The reading blog has many more posts than my life blog.  Slightly pathetic, isn't it?  :)<br/><br/>]]></about>

          <body><![CDATA[I found the final “drawing room scene” (where the detective calls all the suspects together and unmasks the culprit) a tad too heavy handed, like Tremayne was really milking it for all it was worth.  However, I’m not a big fan of those scenes in general, so I may be over reacting. ]]></body>
