More About The Cloths of Heaven
I was sent a copy of 'Cloths of Heaven' from Bookrabbit, and although it's very different from the usual sort of books I choose, I enjoyed it very much and finished it in one day.The book is driven by the characters rather than the plot, and there are some fabulous characters in there - from the awful, snobbish, stereotypical ex-pat...
