Recommendations

A friend asked me the other day what books I would recommend. I don't think she understood that I could go on forever talking about which books I have enjoyed reading. I made a Top Ten list for her and then noticed that I would not have found most of these books if I had not been a member of our book club. These are not in any particular order so the last one on the list is just as dear to me as the first one. My recommendation is to read them all.

The Guernsey Literary and Potato Peel Pie Society by Mary Ann Shaffer and Annie Barrows

The Rossetti Letter by Christi Phillips

Broken For You by Stephanie Kallos

The Thirteenth Tale by Diane Setterfield

The Girl With the Dragon Tattoo by Stieg Larsson (book 1 of the Millennium Trilogy)

At Risk by Stella Rimington (book 1 of 5 in the Liz Carlyle series)

The Sweetness at the Bottom of the Pie by Alan Bradley (book 1 of 3 in the Flavia de Luce series)

Olivia Joules and the Overactive Imagination by Helen Fielding

The Beekeeper’s Apprentice by Laurie R. King (book 1 of 10 in the Mary Russell series)

On Basilisk Station by David Weber (book 1 of 12 in the Honor Harrington series)

The Bone Collector by Jeffrey Deaver (book 1 of 9 in the Lincoln Rhyme series)

Murder on the Iditarod Trail by Sue Henry (book 1 of 13 in the Jessie Arnold series, and this one spins off into a second series)

Note: I can count just fine, I just can't limit myself when talking about books. Yes, when I recommend book 1 of a series I really mean that you should read the whole series.
