Book 14: "Cue the Easter Bunny" by Liz Evans

Gradually I became aware I was being watched. Looking down, I found a pair of brown eyes fixed intently on me.
'You're the bunny lady.'
'No, I'm not.'
Yes, you are. Look, it's the bunny lady.'
I was surrounded by a knee-high audience. All throwing questions at me. 'Why aren't you a bunny anymore?' ;Where are your eggs? Can I have one?' 'Can you paint my face like a bunny?' By this time, the parents had realised something was going on and were giving me half-curious smiles. 'Sorry,' I said. 'Mistaken identity. Must have been some other fluffy-tailed person. Excuse me.'

After a long dry spell with no cases, Grace is desperate enough to dress up as a Easter bunny and hand out leaflets for the council. But then she is asked by a woman to find out who is sending threatening letters to her actor son, without letting him or his soap-star wife know what is happening, and her friend O'Hara asks her to help him find out what happened to a teenage girl who went missing during her paper round fourteen years before. Grace is plagued by rabbits as she investigates these cases, with pictures of her in costume appearing on posters and t-shirts around town, and the soap-star's pet rabbit being rather too friendly. Enjoyable, but the first book in the series is still my favourite.

Book 15: "Heroes and Villains" by Angela Carter

During the war, the Professors were safe in the deep shelters, while everyone else had to survive as best they could on the surface. Centuries later, the Professors live in fortified villages with Workers to do the farming and housework. The villages are periodically raided by nomadic barbarian tribes, who take ammunition, cloth, food, and women, some of whom go willingly. And then there are the Out People, mutants who live in holes in the ground, use bows and arrows rather than guns, and attack both of the other groups when they can.

Marianne is a Professor's daughter who leaves the safety and boredom of life in a village to live with the tribe who has just attacked her village and finds that it is not like she expected. This was Angela Carter's fourth novel and I hadn’t even heard of it before finding it at a bookCrossing meet-up. It was very interesting but tailed off at the end.
