I think Murder Must Advertise is one her best books, myself -- and one of my favourites. She talks about so much in it, and the dialogue is wonderful, and Peter is absolutely beautiful in it! I really liked The Nine Tailors, but found parts of it hard to get through because of all the bell business but the end MORE than makes up for that. I just finished it at work on Sunday on ended up being devastated until closing! Gaudy Night IS so very very good, definitely one of my favourites as well -- interesting, as I wasn't so sure about Harriet when I was reading Have His Carcase. Her bitterness in Gaudy Night just seems to make more sense, and seem less annoying.

I still have to read The Five Red Herrings (it's always out at the library!) and Busman's Honeymoon, and then I shall be very sad because I think that THAT IS IT. Maybe we should take the BEGINNING of Thrones, Dominations, and then finish the rest ourselves.

Peter does have a damned habit of theorising wildly without data; it would have made Holmes absolutely mad.
