Reading a series

Due to circumstances beyone my control, I find myself with more time to read than usual.  I have loved to read any book I could get my hands on  since I was a child. I remember my mother saying to me when I was a young teen "You can't read your life away."  Maybe not but I think I've come close.  I especially enjoy reading series of books about the same characters.  My first introduction to this possibility was when I finished reading "Little House in the Big Woods" and discovered that there was a second book "Little House on the Prairie" and, oh joy of joys, several more in the series.  On one of our family trips west, I dragged my family to visit the sites of some of those books and even the cemetery where several of the family were buried.  I felt like I was visiting members of my own family.  On my trip to the library last week (before it was closed) I was attracted to a book by the picture of a dachshund on the cover.  I soon discovered that this was one of a series and checked out three of them.  If you enjoy books about dogs, mysteries, courtroom drama and a touch of humor I highly recommend this series.  The author is David Rosenfelt and the books are the 'Andy Carpenter' series with titles like "Hounded" and "One Dog Night."  The library is closed now but, thanks to the miracles of technology you can probably download the whole series.   Happy reading!
