It's not even her own book - it's a novel (but Harriet has a bad hangover, so we'll let her off work for the day).
The failure to acknowledge the class element is one of the things that really annoys me about the Paton-Walsh continuations. You don't make it better by pretending it wasn't there. Surely the proof of being in love is that it makes Harriet able to face meeting Peter's mother on her own!
Peter's mother is lovely, but I don't suppose Harriet knows that yet. Are you going to write her? She's such rambly ditzy fun. It's his stuffy brother and snobby sister-in-law I'd be nervous of.
I'm not doing the DD on this occasion - the fic ends before H or P speaks to her.
The icon is a bit of an illustration from the Observer newspaper, which as I posted here (http://nineveh-uk.livejournal.com/98361.html?) managed to do a rather glorious inadvertent bit of Sayers fan-art.
