Yes, definitely-"Clean", but also no gruesome gory details for me, and I will not read anything about abduction, abuse, or harm to a child, and that is the plot in too many mysteries, unfortunately. :[

Both and

were just ok mysteries, so next up an Amish mystery by one of my favorite authors of Amish-themed books Marta Perry.

You're very welcome.I hope you find some goodies.

I'm not sure about 'indie' novels, as I don't pay any attention to whether they are or not, only to the synopsis sounding interesting. However, you might like to check out my other recently created group~Clean Mystery/Suspense for the Squeamish

My mom was like your grandma and she usually had at least two books bookmarked and lying in different rooms of our house.

I never used to read more than one book at a time, but since getting my Kindle Paperwhite, I am now usually reading one book during the day[when I get a chance],and one book in the evening/night, on my Paperwite, as there is no light near my recliner where I read.

Haven't yet read them, thanks for the suggestion, Misty.

Welcome to the group, Carol and Misty. I hope you find many titles here for your reading pleasure.

Also be sure to check my bookshelves in my profile for even more[just click on my photo to get to my profile page].

Hope to see lots of posts from both of you. :D

I also check out Kindle books from my library, and every day or two I check for Kindle Feebies here~https://www.amazon.com/forum/kindle/r...

Plus I used the 30-day free trial at Amazon for Kindle Unlimited and now I subscribe for $9.99 per month, so I can select from so many books to read with instant download.

I loved these~

Didn't like and couldn't finish-The Joy Luck Club, so now thanks to winning the new book[my 4th win in the Goodreads Giveaway!] by John Grisham-"The Whistler" I am getting ready to start my first book by him.

Re: Autumn, so does that mean you are now enjoying "Indian Summer"? Where I live next to Lake Erie we haven't had a killing frost yet, but inland away from the lake has.

Re: Margaret, Wow you are already past peak color? It's just beginning here in northern Ohio!

Fall is my favorite season, and today will be a perfect 70 degree day to enjoy the trees changing color. Will be out and about today and tomorrow.

Since I love Gothic I think I would enjoy the Gad's Hall books more if there was more of a supernatural element to them than reviewers report.

I'm not really a fan of Victorian England books.

I love Amish-themed fiction, and have really enjoyed the mysteries by Marta Perry and Shelley Shepard Gray.
I am getting ready to read ~

Any other mystery lovers a fan of these?

I love cabbage, and this sounds delicious! :D

Hmmm, I don't know. I've never felt any desire to read any from the NOLDA series, set in Africa.

Good idea, Kristi. I also don't mind when a book has the recipes at the back of the book.

I have read several cozy mysteries that have recipes, some I have written down but haven't tried yet. I don't cook as much as I did when our family of five were all together.
