i like these books and am trying to read them all. I just finished Alpine Zen and am wondering if there will be more now that she has completed the alphabet.

I read "the Egg and I" first and really enjoyed it. Anybody Can Do Anything" presented a different side of Betty and, of course, includes her whole family and lots of insights into living through the Great Depression. She has a subtle humor throughout.

I am now looking for "The Plague and I." I also learned that her sister Mary wrote a few books and want to read them.

The first version was good and the revision is even better. An interesting story first written when it seemed this sort of thing was going on for real.

Like Agatha Christie, you will love Ngaio Marsh. A contemporary-her characters seem more human than Agatha's somehow.

It was okay, but not great. I liked the first book in the series better. I have three more to read, but decided I will do some other reading first.
