Summer Reads—Mystery Monday


Here are a couple books to start your week off right. Especially if you like mystery and intrigue.

Everywhere that Mary Went by Lisa Scottoline. This book is an Edgar Award nominee (a big deal in the mystery genre), and the first of a successful legal thriller series.  

And Then There Were None by Agatha Christie. 10 strangers lured by a mysterious host, none able to leave.

The Da Vinci Code by Dan Brown. I still love this book about a Harvard symbologist pulled into an international thriller. It’s well written, and the researched theories and pace make it hard to put down.

SYOAS-See you online again soon!

Summer Reads - Monday Mysteries (even though it's Tuesday already)

The Summer Reads Series is back. You can check out the first of this year's entries here. If you're in the mood for more, I plan to bring you plenty of suggestions, and maybe even a guest post or two. So, check back for updates.

And the Mountains Echoed by Khaled Hosseini - Overview excerpt from Barnes and Noble: An unforgettable novel about finding a lost piece of yourself in someone else. Following its characters and the ramifications of their lives and choices and loves around the globe—from Kabul to Paris to San Francisco to the Greek island of Tinos—the story expands gradually outward, becoming more emotionally complex and powerful with each turning page.

Her Last Breath by Linda Castillo - Overview excerpt from Barnes and Noble: 
An extraordinarily beautiful Amish woman, a dangerous femme fatale, is the central figure in a story that reveals a dark side of Painters Mill and its seemingly perfect Amish world.
