Booking Through Thursday
Almost everyone can name at least one author that you would love just ONE more book from. Either because they’re dead, not being published any more, not writing more, not producing new work for whatever reason . . . or they’ve aged and aren’t writing to their old standards any more . . . For whatever reason, there just hasn’t been anything new (or worth reading) of theirs and isn’t likely to be.
If you could have just ONE more book from an author you love . . . a book that would be as good any of their best (while we’re dreaming) . . . something that would round out a series, or finish their last work, or just be something NEW . . . Who would the author be, and why? Jane Austen? Shakespeare? Laurie Colwin? Kurt Vonnegut?

The first one that comes to mind is another book from Jean M Auel in the Earth's Children series, but I already know that is supposed to be in the pipeline. There was a number of years between books four and five in the series, so it could be a while. This series, for those who haven't read it, is set in the ice age and follows the life of Ayla and Jondalar. Brilliant series!

But I know she is not dead and a 6th book is promised, so that does not really fit the bill.

I love all the books by Louisa May Alcott, especially Little Women, so something else by her would be good. The same goes for Jane Austen. I have always loved her books.

Lastly, and returning completely selfishly to my childhood, I would absolutely love to have another book in the Magic Faraway Tree series written by Enid Blyton. The stories of Moon Face, Silky the elf, Saucepan Man and the children and the worlds they visit at the top of the tree!! I grew up reading and re-reading these books and now as an adult own all of them and, shame free, have re-read them again!

Well goodnight all, have a fantastic weekend.

Blessings to all
