Let the Reading Begin

May 24, 2009 By: Patricia

If you read yesterday’s post, you know I’m taking a great big break and intend to read for fun most of today and tomorrow. Four books have clawed their way to the top of my stacks of books:

Horseradish: Bitter Truths You Can’t Avoid — Lemony Snicket
The Cold Spot — Tom Piccirilli (mystery — Colorado author)
Wild Inferno — Sandi Ault (mystery — Colorado author)
Flesh and Sprit — Carol Berg (fantasy — Colorado author)

It appears the weather will be dreary and rainy. I may have cups of hot herbal tea in the afternoon instead of the iced tea I imagined. And instead of the lounger on the patio, I may be curled in a comfy chair in the living room. It doesn’t matter.

The usual Monday Colorado Author feature will return on June 1st. Tomorrow and Tuesday I’ll discuss the books I read during this great weekend.

    Tea – hot or cold – soothes the spirit. Hope you enjoyed your reads.

    Comfy chair in the living room — that’s my place to read. Go for it!

    Wow — That’s a lot of reading! I’m always interested to hear what friends have on their reading lists. Thanks for sharing! (At the moment, I’m reading Papillion, book that was popular in France in the ’70s.)

Meet Patricia

I read, I write, I blog, and sometimes I do the laundry and cook. My 2014 novel, Dead Wrong, was a finalist in the thriller category of the 2015 Colorado Book Awards. Wishing Caswell Dead (Five Star/Cengage, December 20, 2017) is a historical mystery set in 1830s Illinois in the fictitious Village of Sangamon. The novel was a finalist for the 2018 Colorado Book Awards for General Fiction. My most recent release, In Defense of Delia (Five Star/Cengage, November 2022), is available in hardcover and will soon be available in ebook and trade paperback. Read More…
