gladgirl, I read as much Taylor Caldwell as I could as a teen! My favorite was The Glory and the Lightning, which I still remember vividly some thirty years later. I even bought it on Kindle to read again (on sale for $2.99) since my paper copy is falling apart - it's so old, it doesn't even have a UPC code.
Just finished: Petty: The Biography (Warren Zanes) The Birchbark House (Birchbark House #1, Louise Erdrich) - a Little House on the Prairie-type book focused on a Native American family Just started: Sleeping Bear (Connor Sullivan) The Good Sister (Sally Hepworth) |

I love the Mary Stewart suspense books and collected as many of the original paperbacks as I could find.
Currently reading Uprooted by Naomi Novik and thoroughly enjoying it. I didn't realize until I happened to glance at the acknowledgements that she is married to a man I used to work with, Charles Ardai, who started the Hard Case imprint for hardboiled crime fiction. He is also a terrific writer and a lovely person.

I finished Koontz's 2nd Jane Hawk book, The Whispering Room, yesterday. It was okay, but her exploits are pretty unbelievable. I started the next one I was due for in Jonathan Kellerman's Dr. Alex Delaware series, Museum of Desire.

I finished another T. Kingfisher book--The Twisted Ones. It was recommended by Rivercat (I think). I like her writing style. I also just finished You Can Run by Rebecca Zanetti. It was a quick read. I did have to suspend a lot of disbelief for this one, but overall, I enjoyed it. I so enjoyed reading Agatha Christie, that I decided to look at some other more classic mystery writers. I just started Hag's Nook by John Dickson Carr. He's noted as one of the great "locked room mystery" writers. I've never read anything by him, so this is new to me. |
