I can't get enough of

Jilly Cooper. I mean, she well and truly rocks. I read Riders, Rivals and Polo when I was seriously young. Young enough that when I took it to school to read at break time, my teacher confiscated it and wrote a letter home. I'm not going to explain why, I'm just going to recommend that you read them. I bought her latest book on Sunday after having stopped every time I passed it in a book shop. It was almost like an orgasm. You know, wanting something, and not getting it, then wanting it more and then not getting it (repeat many times) and then suddenly getting it. I was so excited it took me about an hour to open the darn cover. Immense relief. Immense.

The woman is a legend. Go read her.
