    Earlene Fowler has written a number of mystery stories based on the various quilt blocks...EQ has the instructions and blocks to put into EQ7. Her lastest one is State Fair, still staring Benni Harper as her main charater.

    The Midwife's Confession, by Diane Chamberlain ... and
    Hurricanes in Paradise, by Denise Hildreth ... both very good!

    Now I have bookmarked this post so that I can make a list of all these recommendations.

    I am reading the Long Drive Home, really good book so far.

    I just finished reading She Walks in Beauty by Siri Mitchell, if you like Pride and Prejudice and that time period you will like this but I can never quite connect with Victorian era from this viewpoint, probably I would have been in those impoverished huddled masses and not high society.

    I am suggesting the book Scattered Life by Karen McQuestion, wonderful characthers you can really connect with some of them. Real twist near the end that left me crying.

    I second the Midwives Confession, great story and characters.

    I read two to three books a week so my list could go on and on.

    Just finished Fern Michaels "Southern Comfort". Have two paper backs to finish and then will start reading Eve by Irish Johanson.

    James Patterson for me too. This time is "I, Alex Cross" I think I'm addicted to him. I've also read up to 7 of the Women's Murder Club.
