Lily dale by Wicker I'm from the area where Lily Dale is located so it seemed interesting. Also Growing up Green, I can't remember who it's by and Hard Times by Charles Dickens. I keep books in various places so I don't have to haul them around but am never without something to read. lol

I finally found a new series that I am really enjoying: in fact I am almost obsessed! The Ian Rutledge series by Charles Todd (actually a mother/son writing team) . They are police procedurals that take place after WWI. The main character is from Scotland Yard and is badly shell shocked and gradually pulling his life and sanity back together as he works to solve his case. The attraction for me is the historical period and the likeability of the characters especially Rutledge but also his sister. The stories are very complex, maybe too complex but I like that too because I need to concentrate on them to get the whole picture.

I just got Jodi Picoult's newest book in the mail, so I know what I'm reading for the next few days.

the movie's great, too. some things make a lot more sense when the main story doesn't revolve around jack and rose.

anyway. moving on to shirley temple's autobiography.

I just finished Dewey by Vicki Myron. It was a good tale especially to a cat lover like me.
Don't know what is next yet.

French Pressed - Cleo Coyle

I am now obsessed with this "coffehouse mystery" series and have finished 5 of the books in the last few weeks. It's basically about a coffee house manager who solves murders. Very well written NYC cozy mystery books. Highly recommend.

Also

Don't Pee on my leg and Tell me it's Raining-Judge Judy

randomly found this at the library. I'm enjoying it. It's an insightful look at the family court problems of the US. Also offers pratical solutions. Plus its easy to read and offers Judy's straight talk and humor.
