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.

    You’ve gotten lots of good suggestions already! I’m a big fan of Louise Penny mysteries. For fun ones with recipes have you tried Joann Fluke or Diane Mott Davidson? Classic, well written ones by Michael Connelly. The magazine I’ve been loving lately is Vignette – such pretty embroidery on quilts!

    PS: thought of one more: Susan Witting Albert has a couple of mystery series. One stars China Bayles (sp?), who owns an herb shop, and my favorite is a series featuring Beatrix Potter. The first one of those is The Tale of Hilltop Farm. Fun!
