I would really like to get a copy of Rose’s Blog, I went to search for it on Hilary McKay’s website, and only the most recent ones are there.

In reply to Lucy.

Hi, Lucy! I’m very jealous that you get to read Caddy’s World so soon — it’s not out in America yet! I hope you have a great time seeing Hilary McKay, as she sounds like a lovely person. Have you seen her website, where she keeps a blog for Rose?

If you can’t find the links to the old blog (it’s been going on since 2008), let me know and I will email the old blog to you. 🙂 Also, have you read A Little Princess, by Frances Hodgson Burnett? Hilary McKay wrote a very good sequel to it called Wishing for Tomorrow.

For other books, have you read anything by Diana Wynne Jones? She’s one of my favorite authors! Try Charmed Life and see what you think. 🙂

This is all completely news to me, but I am always prepared to like what you like. Oh and like Nymeth I hadn’t realised how old this post was, but it’s come up in my google reader too. Well, it’s always time to learn about the good stuff.

I have not read any of these books, but I am really starting to think that I am missing something great. Your review of this one and the wonderful lengths you went to to obtain it really speak to me, and I am going to be grabbing them when I can.

In reply to nymeth. Also, the reason why I'm commenting on this ancient post is because Google Reader decided to pretend it was new. But it turns out I'd missed it before, so it's okay, right? :P

I found this at a charity shop the other day, and I finished Caddy Ever After yesterday, so I’ll be reading it very very soon 😀 And then I’ll cry because there are no more Casson family books. I’ve just accidentally read the spoiler in the comment above, but I don’t much care 😛

In reply to shalini. I'm going to really tell you, so if you didn't actually want to know, stop reading! Yes, Caddy marries Michael; Saffy and Oscar are still quite young, but Oscar does stick around. Indigo and Sarah are together at the close of the book, and of course Rose is not even a teenager and doesn't marry anyone. :)
