From my history/mystery shelves, I'd recommend the Jane Austen series by Stephanie Barron; The Blind Justice series (18th century London) by Bruce Alexander; the Steven Saylor books about Gordianus the Finder (ancient Rome) and Sharan Newman's Catherine LeVendeur mysteries (medieval France). I also like Laura Lippman's Tess Monaghan stories (set in present-day Baltimore). Not reading much fiction right now, but these are all old friends.dianehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11292813474160548707noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3665164814382738462.post-16680036072948320262009-03-15T22:58:00.000-04:002009-03-15T22:58:00.000-04:00I just looked at your profile and we have remarkab...I just looked at your profile and we have remarkably similar book tastes! Although I am a <I>Pride & Prejudice</I> fan, <I>Emma</I> is in my top three Austen - all three kind of tied for first - I LOVE all the Laurie R. King Mary Russell books and so enjoyed the Pullman. Don't you think the Lord Peter Wimsey books absolutely come alive with <I>Gaudy Night</I> and the addition of Harriet Vane? Who else do you read? April break is on the horizon and that means reading time!! I'm always looking for suggestions.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3665164814382738462.post-40766873412254748952009-03-15T16:33:00.000-04:002009-03-15T16:33:00.000-04:00You're welcome, Kate!

If I didn't believe in an eventual meet-up with my online friends, I'd feel as if I were spending my time with cartoons or caricatures.dianehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11292813474160548707noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3665164814382738462.post-58501455579349588732009-03-14T21:41:00.000-04:002009-03-14T21:41:00.000-04:00Thanks, Diane -These are tools of connection, and ...Thanks, Diane -<BR/><BR/>These are tools of connection, and they are both wonderful additions and extensions of the twitter experience.
