I must have started as a teenager.<BR/><BR/>geraniumcat - I read the fictional Pope Joan that came out in the past few years. It was very good, I love learning my history in those types of books.<BR/>Tuppence is really great, she doesn't take a backseat to anyone. And Tommy doesn't try to make her either, which is why he is great too.raidergirl3https://www.blogger.com/profile/03629915042716259349noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9088702729460953718.post-73514751677105679862008-02-28T19:00:00.000-04:002008-02-28T19:00:00.000-04:00Pope Joan was one of my heroines when I was young ...Pope Joan was one of my heroines when I was young - I read the Lawrence Durrell book but I think I've seen that there's a new one?<BR/><BR/>I've only read one Tommy and Tuppence book, but I thought she was a great character.Jodie Robsonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02442935205880334932noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9088702729460953718.post-74723083410992852162008-02-28T17:58:00.000-04:002008-02-28T17:58:00.000-04:00Anne's a great one, how could I have forgotten her...Anne's a great one, how could I have forgotten her?
