Hi Gmaann, in reading through your list, you pretty much like what I do....A friend just gave me a couple of the "Miss Julia" books and I loved them, waiting for her to bring some more....
But, I just finished
Friction by Sandra Brown - good read
Rain Water by Sandra Brown - Very good
Exposed by Lisa Gardner - Excellent
Gone by Lisa Gardner - Very good
The Perfect Husband by Lisa Garner - Very good

Not sure what I'm going to start now but I did have a call from the Library....I had reserved, "Wonder" so I'm anxious to stop and pick it up......These chilly days are meant for a good cup of tea and a book.......

reading a 643 page large print novel by Nicolas sparks that should carry me through the xmas season.. The central library set me up with a vltr who takes my call in selection of books every mth to my door and brings back the other books.. I opted to try this system for this winter and see how much I like and in the coldest of days have grocery delivered to my home..

Go out only from the bus stop front of house to door destination and underground shopping visits to mail things.. So lots of TV, puzzle, reading, sewing, homemade baking, and finishing indoor things.

Maybe I'll see how much money saved..

I have yet to try the nancy drew series.. it is bit younger for my age reading but think it would be fun.. to do some lighter read.

Just finished Second Sister by Marie Bostwick. Quilters involved! May have to go back as I felt there were a couple of things left undone!

My favorite part was when they talked about SABLE - Stash Accumulated Beyond Life Expectancy! I'm pretty sure I've reached SABLE!

I have read tons of books since I last posted.....
Of course, anything by James Patterson is excellent
I, Michael Bennett....Patterson
16th Seduction........Patterson
Private, Vegas........Patterson
Lost Light......Michael Connelly
Hide............Lisa Gardner
To Die For......Linda Howard
Sting...........Sandra Brown
Before The Fall.Noah Hawley

And I started reading, Philip Craig, who writes about Martha's Vineyard and they have been very enjoyable.....

My list goes on and on, too many to post....Just picked up 2 Patterson, a Sandra Brown and another one by Hawley, so I'm set for a couple of days......

what would we do without our books.......

Due to quarantine, I have read most of Neil Gaiman's novels such as Neverwhere, Coraline, Good Omens (his collaboration with sir Terry Pratchett), American Gods and Stardust. I can highly recommend them to anyone who likes fantasy.
