If you like Earlene Fowler, look for series by these authors: Monica Ferris, Clare O'Donohue, Marie Bostwick, Jennifer Chiaverini and my latest passion...."Southern Sewing Circle"

Mysteries that take place in Italy
Donna Leon-wonderful characters in Venice
Michael Dibdin-the Areulio Zen series
Madelyn Nabb-Florence

Robert Parker and Paterson are favorites and most of the before mentioned

Jennifer Chevarini, Earlene Fowler, Diane Mott Davidson, Fern Michals (The Sisterhood), and Braum (The Cat Who series). All good series.

Like Earlene Fowler also but Debbie Macomber is my favorite

Charles Martin, Hank Bragg
Both are enlightening.
My favorite by Charles Martin " When Crickets Cry".
My favorite by Hank Bragg " All over but the Shouting"

I love a good spy story so my #1 is Vince Flynn. I got hooked on the very first page of his first book and now can't wait until a new one comes out. If you like this type of story start with his first book as they are pretty sequential. You can read them in any order though. They are very "current affairs" with lots of terrorism insights.

I read everything that comes down the pike with Stephen King topping my list of favorite authors. That man has the most bizarre talent going and is totally twisted ............. makes for books that one cannot put down.

Just finished reading "The Help" and must say I just couldn't put it down until it was finished. Love the Mitch Rapp series by Vince Flynn and John Grisham is another of my favorite authors.

Diana Gabaldon is my absolute favorite. It's the only series I've ever reread. I've read them all. reread them all and even listened to all on audio multiple times. I cannot wait to see more on book #8. I see it has a title now
