No Way to Kill a Lady by Nancy Martin
The 8th book in the Blackbird Sisters mystery series was a hoot to write. I hope everybody enjoys getting back to Nora's world as much as I did.

The Family Man by Elinor Lipman
I love Elinor Lipman. She's witty but poignant, clever but deep. Delightful writing. Fast-paced, but you don't know where the plot is going. The Family Man is one of my top faves of her books.
Nancy rated a book 5 of 5 stars
State of Wonder by Ann Patchett
Vibrant prose, a heroine with heartache, a compelling adventure in the Amazon. I was surprised and delighted on every page. I want to have the experience of reading it for the first time all over again.
