Thanks for the update on the books, Richard.

They were mentioned a while back, when September seemed a long way off.

...and here we are!.. The first book's release is soooo close.

Anyone ordered anything yet?

The Sharon Davis book that is currently onsale in The Works has a different sleeve and title to the one online. Was it changed at the 11th hour I wonder?

When you check the various websites the book is titled A Girl Called Dusty but the edition published is just called "Dusty" and has a nice picture of Dusty in a lace dress, infact that is one of my all time favourite pics as Pat sent it to me when I joined the fan club in the 60's.

As a point of interest Amazon uk seems to be having trouble getting hold of the Laurence Cole volume. I had been advised it was going to be delivered this last week but then I had an e-mail to say they don't know when they will get it - gave me the option there and then to cancel. Anybody know whats up?

Also, whilst doing my usual Sunday trawl I noticed that the Annie Randall Book is soon to be out in the States (apologies to our American cousins but I had meant to comment on the date ages back and it slipped my menopausal mind ). Amazon.com shows it as the 19 November, although it says that if you order it today you will get it 21 October.....must have been released then . Only 2 left in stock QUICK.....Anybody ordered it yet? Would like a review please .

I preordered post mods several weeks ago from Amazon US, and have been holding my breath for the 21st. I will let you know.

Loving the front cover I have to say!

Thanks for the info on the release of the book dates, it's very appreciated! Also, thanks for link to the book review, Emma, it was a good review. Lol, I would've bought the book even if it had a bad review, but I can't see where our girl would get a bad review anyway.....XOXO
