Whew! It has been a busy autumn, but now that I'm finally back home in Maine and the air is definitely too chilly to sit outside and enjoy the view, so I have no excuse to keep me from catching up on blogging, reviewing, and yes - more reading!
Since I last posted any reviews, I've finished 10 books, including the last three in the Duncan Kinkaid and Gemma James series by Deborah Crombie. I was motivated to fill in the blanks I hadn't read after reviewing To Dwell in Darkness for the TLC Blog tour. I've now completed that series, and can't wait for a new one to come out. I'm not writing reviews because when I read a series one after the other, the story blends (as well it should) and the enjoyment is ruined for me if I have to sort out what happened when.
Suffice it to say, all three of these were terrific reads. I especially like how Crombie blends specific facets of London's neighborhoods and/or history to fashion a story. Each book features the same characters, but the settings, and the criminals and their motivations are quite different. She's exceptional at blending cold cases with new ones.

Welcome, thanks for stopping by. Now that you've heard our two cents, perhaps you have a few pennies to throw into the discussion. Due to a bunch more anonymous spam getting through, I've had to disallow anonymous comments. I try to respond to all comments posing a question, but may not always get to you right away.
