Score by jilly cooper6/27/2023 ![]() ![]() ![]() But these are minor disappointments.In all other respects this is good enough to have restored my faith to go on and buy and read some more in the Rutshire Chronicles series. Taggie still seems unfortunately wetter than a haddock in bathing trunks and Helen has now been changed into a real harpie which is I think a real shame. This book is really different, and tho it's no PD James it's a good stab (excuse the pun) at something a little different and it does make a real and very refreshing change. It also has a lot of the characters from Apassionata and Man who made Husbands Jealous/Polo briefly, and in the case of Meredith, more extensively returning to liven the proceedings, along with the dreadful Hermione, Ranaldinni (who now definitely wont be back in any future ones !) and some new and enjoyable lively characters. If Apassionata was all about Marcus, then Score is all about Tabitha. I have never read this one, after the awful Apassionata I gave Ms Cooper a miss for quite a while, but I was pleasantly surprised how much I enjoyed it although it could have lost 10 chapters and not missed them towards the end. OTT AND ITS NOT PD JAMES BUT I THOROUGHLY ENJOYED ![]()
