But unless one of our friends can honestly say that the Parasol Protectorate series is the best thing since Victoria's Prince Albert died, I cannot read another book by her.<br /><br />Also, your review is much better thought out than my abortive attempt: <br /><br /><br />Dear J.K. Rowling,<br /><br />I’m sorry about all the times my friends and I said you weren’t a great writer. It took reading <i>Etiquette and Espionage</i> for me to realize just how much skill went into portraying Hogwarts in HP1. Please accept my apologies and enjoy your well-deserved royalties.<br /><br />Yours &c.Susanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02606258836702941761noreply@blogger.com
