Northanger Abbey by Jane Austen
Proof that mean girls (and boys!) are nothing new.

The newest in one of my favorite series. Love them all:)
The Wilding Sisters by Eve Chase
A fifty-year-old mystery in a haunted English manor house?
Yes, please!
The Prisoner in the Castle by Susan Elia MacNeal
Shades of Agatha Christie's And Then There Were None all wrapped up
in a tale of WWII espionage. What more can one want?
The Chronicles of Narnia by C. S. Lewis
Read all seven, again.
Something in the Water by Catherine Steadman
Fantastic beach read. Or by-the-fire-in-the-fall read. Just read.
Sisters First by Jenna Bush Hager and Barbara Pierce Bush
Beautiful, funny and touching.
Little Women by Louisa M. Alcott
True confession: first time I've read the whole thing.
150 years old and still rings true.
A Discovery of Witches, Shadow of Night and The Book of Life
The All Souls Trilogy by Deborah Harkness
Harry Potter meets Vampire Diaries.
I bought the first book at the airport two weeks ago
and finished the third last night. Don't start reading if your calendar is full.
Murder in Venice and A Christmas Case
both by L. B. Hathaway
More from the world of Posie Parker, one of my favorite fictional detectives.
The Man Who Couldn't Miss by David Handler
Hollywood Ghostwriter Stewart Hoag is back with basset hound Lulu by his side.
The Word is Murder by Anthony Horowitz
A modern Sherlock Holmes story by one terrific author.
News of the World by Paulette Jiles
A beautifully told post-Civil War story of an elderly War Veteran and the ten-year-old girl he must return to her family in San Antonio after she was kidnapped by and then rescued from the Kiowas.
A National Book Award finalist.
A Simple Favor by Darcey Bell
Will make you think twice about saying "yes" to friends.
The Mystery of Three Quarters by Sophie Hannah
The new Hercule Poirot mystery written by Hannah but sanctioned by Agatha Christie Ltd.
Long live Hercule Poirot!!
Little Fires Everywhere by Celeste Ng
White picket fences do not the perfect family make.
Beneath a Scarlet Sky by Mark Sullivan
How one person can make a huge difference. Based on a true story of heroism in Italy during WWII. Fascinating, heartbreaking and humbling. Also, now I want to go to the Italian Alps.
About My Mother by Peggy Rowe
The mother of Mike Rowe, Peggy couldn't be anything but funny, and this book is a riot!! Self-published but promoted by Mike, the first run quickly sold out on Ebay, was picked up by a publisher and proceeded to "break" Amazon. I believe you can still pre-order copies on B & N.
Y is for Yesterday by Sue Grafton
Such a bittersweet treat to read Sue Grafton's final book. I couldn't put it off any longer, and I will miss her writing so much. I may have to start again at A...
Until next time...TBC
