This week, I read and enjoyed:

Stone Cold Blooded by Catherine Dilts

Mrs. Pollifax Unveiled by Dorothy Gilman

[MaryAnn (EmilyD1037)]

I just finished Chocolate Chip Cookie Murder #1 in the Hannah Swensen series by Joanne Fluke. I gave it 3.5 stars. I liked it fine and thought it was a good first book.

I am going to start #2 a little later in the month. I have several groups going and want to try to keep up. I am glad that I was
gifted with this choice this month. I have been adding her books
to my TBR shelves for a long time.

I really liked the first one, so I'm glad to see you liked the second book.

Loved seeing the reason behind "Carstairs". I loved the Mrs. Pollifax series and wished it could go on forever. Your review makes me want to go back and re-read them.

[BLynne]

I finally finished the book "Let the Right One In," by John Ajvide Lindqvist. Now starting the cozy mystery book "The Trouble with Magic" by Madelyn Alt.

[Mark]

Jax,

I'm so with you on Mrs. Pollifax. Such a fun series, and I wish she were still going on adventures today. I like to imagine she is still taking assignments for Carstairs and doing the impossible under overwhelming odds.

This week, I read and enjoyed:

Get Me to the Grave on Time by D. E. Ireland

Rhythm and Clues by Sue Ann Jaffarian

[Nell]

Read Caught Read-Handed by Terrie Farley Moran and Body on the Bayou by Ellen Byron this week. Enjoyed them both.

[Gary]

I am nearing the end of Murder in the Mystery Suite by Ellery Adams

Yes, she's still going all over the world having great adventures. There's something about her that makes you wish you were travelling with her. It's wonderful to have a character who isn't flighty, and a series where the focus is on the murder, not romance or fashion.

I've got to try the Doolittle and Higgins series. I'd like to see if I could picture Audrey Hepburn and Rex Harrison as the characters.

[Mark]

The Doolittle and Higgins series is absolutely fabulous. I've only seen the play, so I don't picture the actors as the characters, but I don't feel it hurts me at all.

In the last week and a half, I've enjoyed:

Paint the Town Dead by Sybil Johnson

One Foot in the Grove by Kelly Lane

Forget Hepburn, Eliza is either Wendy Hiller in the movie version of Pygmalion or Julie Andrews. Hepburn's singing voice was the late, great Marni Nixon

[Gary]

Currently reading the first of this month's serial reads, Bun for Your Life by Karoline Barrett

[Mark]

So far this month, I've enjoyed:

Dying for a Taste by Leslie Karst
