62. "Framed in Lace" by Monica Ferris 2 days ago

Second mystery in Monica Ferris’ Needlecraft Mystery series. I liked this one better than the first. Ferris does a good job developing her characters and they are quite likable. I’m happy to find another good series….it’s a long one!

Keeping You a Secret by Julie Anne Peters



October books. 5 days ago

Wow, another slow reading month. It felt like more than this, as there were a bunch of unfinished reference type books in there as well, they’ll fall in November as I was using them after October.

35. The Guernsey Literary and Potato Peel Pie Society by Mary Ann Schaffer (Book Club)
36. The Light Fantastic by Terry Pratchett (fun fiction)
37. Blink by Malcolm Gladwell (attention catcher)

13 books left in the next 2 months!! Luckily I already have 3 down for November.

I got the box set of “A Series of Unfortunate Events” for $30 from Borders. One down, twelve to go. I like the writing style in these books.
