the lastest books read

"Eye of the Witch; Detective Marcella Witch's Series, book 2" by Dana E. Donovan
An interesting murder mystery with paranormal underpinnings. lots of references to the first book and the story took a while to get going, but overall a good read. I would like to read the rest of the series.

"Louisiana Lament" by Julie Smith (Talba Wallis Mystery #3)
This is the third book in the fun mystery series. I love that the heroine is a poet and that her poems are in the book. However, poetry does not pay the bills and so, Talba's day job is a PI.

Side note, I'm watching the season finale of "The Following" and just realized that one of the major characters is named "Debra Parker". My third sister is named "Deborah Parker"

and yet another book

I not quite ready to have constant triple digit weather yet, so I'm glad to hear that we are going to have a bit of a cool down. My garden will be happy about it too.

The latest read is "Shadows in the Night: An Aurelia Marcella Roman Mystery" by Jane Finnis.
It's a murder mystery set in Roman Britain in the tenth year of Domitian Caesar.Written as a long letter, it has the feel of a cozy. The author did keep me guessing and second guessing who the villain was. I liked it and would read more in this series.
