Cheryl,

Have you tried the Seven Waters Trilogy by Juliet Marillier.



I'll second that nomination as well. The books are
a retelling (with some liberties) of the Andersen fairy
tale "The Wild Swans." She does a really lovely job of it.

Best wishes,
Ericka

Have you read any of the "Alex Cross" mysteries by James Patterson. I just
can't get enough of all his books lately, but especially enjoy the Alex
Cross ones.

Just as above, a new author, a new direction

Too frozen to garden, plenty of stitching time, but need a new "bed time
story".

Mysteries, historicals, futuristic, fantasy...


The best of the most recent

The Sapphire Sea - Robinson
Fairy Godmother- Mercedes Lackey (looked good, is great)

with _Wordwright_)

Is he the one who wrote the series about the kid with the banged-up
knee? It's placed in Georgia, I think. I really enjoyed those; I'll
have to scrounge them out of the garage for a re-read.



Yep, those are the ones ;-)

Best wishes,
Ericka

"Sampler45" had some very interesting things
to say about OT - needed a good read or two:

If you haven't read it already, "The DaVinci Code" by Dan Brown is great!


I liked that one.

Sorry - had nightmares after one of the early ones - won't read him again.
Ditto King - wide awake screamers!

Liked? Oh, tell the truth. You ate it up and asked me for research materials
on several subjects therein.

I'd say that counts as "loved", "adored", or something far in excess of mere
"like".

I read "Deception Point" and "Digital Fortress" by Dan Brown recently. He
wrote those before "Angels and Demons" and "The DaVinci Code".

I agree with Karen, I've never read a bad Belva Plain book. I just finished
the latest Barbara Taylor Bradford and am waiting for the latest John
Grisham from the library.
