Hi ,
It looks like you're using an ad blocker.



The revenue generated from the adverts on the site is a critical part of our funding - and it's because of these ads that I can offer the site for free. But using the site for free AND blocking the ads doesn't feel like a great thing to do, which is why this box is so large and inconvenient. Some sites will completely block your access, but I'm not doing that - I'm appealing to your good nature instead. Did you know that you can allow ads for specific sites, whilst still blocking them on others?

Thanks,
Ian Williams aka Fetch
or for an ad-free Fetcheveryone experience!

I've read one, and listened to others on Book at Bedtime. I'll pass on this one as I only started reading Queenie last night!

I loved the Rabbit novels, although perhaps love is a difficult word, but Updike writes so beautifully.

Thank you Westmoors. Have not read any John Updike, so looking forward to this one.

My library has got 2 copies of the John Updike book. I could pick it up when I collect Queenie and try and catch up a bit.

Cheers Dio. That's the number one hit on Amazon when you neglect to put the 'Updike' in the search

I had to get up on a stool and lift up several other books to get to this. As it’s three books in one I’m expecting very small print.
