Share your “reads” with me

Two of my favorite past-times:  Looking through magazines or reading a good book.  It’s what I do every evening to unwind from the day.  I’m getting desperate for more books to read so if you’ve read a good book share it!  Mysteries are my favorite but I’m open to any good book.  I love a series so I can read on when I’m done with one book.   I’m reading Lisa Gardener’s book called Catch Me.  I’ve read almost all of James Paterson and the whole Stephanie Plum series from Janet Evanovich.   I know there must be book lovers out there reading away and enjoy books I haven’t read.  Help! (Yes, I read The Help LOL.)

One of my favorite magazines, Jeanne d’ Arc Living  just arrived at our door!  It’s such an expensive magazine that I normally only order special issues, but this month Jeanne d’ Arc surprised us all and reduced the cost of the magazine in the US to $13.95 per issue.  This is about half of what it’s sold for in the past so I’ve added a few copies to our website .  Jeanne d’ Arc is published in Norway and it’s a treat to find it in the US.  Enjoy the photos (taken by the Jeanne d’Arc photographer…not me) as a sampling of what’s inside this beautiful magazine.

    As I’m new to reading I don’t have a long list but I will read anything by Sandra Dallas and you have got to read the Maise Dobbs mysteries. Love Love to you – got to go and cut out Baby Girl “Tate Michael” ‘s baby quilt out of Ooh La La.

    I just read a good mystery for my book club that is The Last Child by John Hart. It is one of those books that you can hardly put down. Another author that I really like is Lesley Kagan. Her first book Whistling in the Dark was so good. It is a mystery but the main charchter is so funny. I am reading the follow up to that book right now.

    I listen to audio tapes as I walk and also as I sew and quilt. I love series by the same author so when I find one I like I gobble up all the books in a series. By the way these are free in NH through our state library systerm.
    My favorites are 3 detective series. Andy Carpenter series by David Rosenfelt, much like Janet Evanovich but a humorous male hero. Barbara Holloway Series by Kate Wilhelm , a savvy lawyer. Masie Dobbs series by Jacquelin Winspear, a series starting in WW1 England with an intriguing female investigator. All are page turners or should I say MP3 rechargers!
