What book are you reading now?
I am reading The Hangman's Daughter by Oliver Potzsch. It is a very good mystery set in the late 1600's.

The Oriental Casebook of Sherlock Holmes, Fools's Puzzle by Earlene Fowler, the Rodwell Files (a bridge book), You Believers by Jane Bradley, Swamplandia by Karen Russell. Quilt pattern books don't count as reading, do they?

Lindsey Davis - Nemesis (Falco series)
Just finished: Christopher Fowler - Off the rails (Bryant and May series) Bernard Knight - Crowner John Mysteries (excellent and highly recommended) M C Beaton - Hamish McBeth and Agatha Raisin Series Starting later in the week: C J Sansom - Shardlake Series Just to say I have had a Kindle since the summer. I put off buying one because I wasn't sure whether I would get on with it. What a mistake! I LOVE my kindle and wouldn't be without it now. |

Am reading Out of the Dark by David Weber...it's SF. Have four mysteries by G. M. Malliet to read - St. Just series and the first book in the Max Tudor series. Just downloaded an Elizabeth Chadwick historical book only to find out it's the 2nd in a trilogy...so gotta hunt down the first book. That's means a trip to Half-Price Books...and that ain't a bad thing! Kinda like going to the fabric store.... |
