Also, after enjoying Michael Koryta's SO COLD THE RIVER so much, I can't wait to read CYPRESS HOUSE. I think that Jen Forbus talked me into that one and my mystery group will be reading and discussing it in the spring.

It's good, written in a popular style.<br /><br />I was worried the subject would be hard to read about, but Lippman has done a very skillful job, raising many questions.<br /><br />The cover on the Blaize Clement book is adorable.

I generally don't like writers who take pen in hand after the original author has died, but she does a very competent job and retains the flavor of the originals.<br /><br />Susan Elizabeth Phillips has a new book in January titled, Call Me Irresistible. Her books always make me laugh and cry.<br /><br />P.L. Gaus's, A Prayer For The Night releases in January. Yes, Lesa, you got me hooked on this series!<br /><br />Last, but not least is Robyn Carr's, Promise Canyon. This is a continuation of her Virgin River series and I enjoy them immensely and count down the days until the next book is released.<br /><br />I'm sure after reading your book reviews, I'll have more January picks. I think you must be a superlibrarian!<br /><br />BevBev Stephansnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9995206.post-28522078342194597852010-12-02T04:48:02.269-06:002010-12-02T04:48:02.269-06:00Some great books here!
