Since I like to write it should come as no shock to you that I also love to read. I wish I could say that I only read high-brow best sellers but the truth is I enjoy romances, mysteries, police procedurals and medical mysteries.
One of the things I enjoy most is discovering a series of novels featuring the same characters. I first discovered this love with the "Little House" series when I was in elementary school. I loved that family so much that I dragged my family to many of the locations in the books on one of our trips west.
I enjoy the sense of revisiting old friends when I start each new book in a series. I think I've mentioned "The Royal Spyness" series by Rhys Bowen. I recommend starting with the first one "Her Royal Spyness." There are 19 in the series which takes place in 1930s England. Lots of history woven into these.
Another series I am happy to recommend is the "Mrs. Jeffries" series by Emily Brightwell. These are Victorian police procedural mysteries. I'm in the middle of one of these right now, so I am going to stop writing and get back to reading. Happy reading everyone.
