While I didn't like it as much as the other Wimsey books I read before, this made a nice change from the non-fiction book I'm still working my way through. There's a really beautiful scene where Harriet and Wimsey have a painfully honest conversation.
#BookMail Pt4 Number Seven In Sayers Lord Peter Wimsey series. I‘m slowly accumulating them all in these editions, they‘re so pretty. And colourful! #WeveOnlyJustBegun #MayMovieMagic
A couple of #purplebooks off the shelves.

Tumblr imploding slowly has people migrating or coming back to Dreamwidth. A really good thing is a conversation on Lord Peter's series on my friend list. Someone is reading it for the first time and just inhaled the first three books in a very short time. Much like I did 10 years ago. Sayers is kinda addictive. #mystery
Even if I said, I don't buy any more #folios until Christmas, I needed these two. ?? #foliofreaks
The right book is the tagged one, the left one is "the dairy of a provincial lady" ?
A delight, as ever, and now I keep writing my wife notes using the Playfair cipher.
The banter between Lord Peter Wimsey and Harriet Vane in this book is EVERYTHING. 😍😍😍
"The best remedy for a bruised heart is not, as so many people seem to think, repose upon a manly bosom. Much more efficacious are honest work, physical activity, and the sudden acquisition of wealth. [...] although Lord Peter Wimsey, with a touching faith in tradition, persisted day in and day out in presenting the bosom for her approval, she showed no inclination to recline upon it."
Another reread for pure self-indulgent delight. I should really type up the first paragraph as a quote, it's just so good.
My favorite mystery writer of all, Dorothy L. Sayers. A woman of intelligence, bold for her times in her faith and her personal life. Not a perfect woman, but one who never fails to teach me when I read her works, be they mysteries, Christian exposition or just letters to acquaintances.
Gorgeous new covers for Peter Wimsey (I am coveting madly) in the larger paperback size, and another reason to love Foyles - a handy list of the series in order with the books. 📚❤️ 👍🏽💜
Lord Peter Wimsey is adorable. So happy to have made his acquaintance. #currentlyreading
Sick days are made substantially better with the wit and spark of Lord Peter Whimsey respectfully inquiring after the body discovered by his unrequited love. The mystery is solid and the banter incredible. This isn't so much a sequel to STRONG POISON as a continuation of the best conversation ever.
