So, on the plus side, despite serious RL interventions progress on my card is well under way, with four squares (including the centre / free / raven square) marked "called and read"; three of these in a row -- plus reading for the remaining two squares of that row also in progress -- and several mor...
I was pleasantly surprised to discover this series was still going. I had heard book #12 was suppose to have been the last. Not only was a thirteenth novel released last year but book #14 is due to be published at some point this year. I wasn't feeling as excited for book #14 by the time I reached...

Example: Apparently there is this letter received by Prioress Eleanor from her aunt Sister Beatrice that exposes Brother Thomas as a spy. The reader is never told when this letter arrived or reall...
