Books We're Reading

Liz is looking for good fantasy writers, in addition to the usual mysteries & historical settings. Here are the findings so far: 

Robert Jordan, thanks to Julie & Chris
George R.R. Martin, thanks to Gail
Neal Stephenson, thanks to the Zimms
Christopher Moore, thanks to Stace
China Miéville, via my fave book club, QPBC (paperbacks!).

Don't miss Diana Gabaldon's Outlander books: Outlander, Dragonfly in Autumn, Voyager, and Drums of Autumn. Thanks to my 6th cousin Vicki for the recommendation. I couldn't put them down.

Other favorite authors that I wish would write faster:

Elizabeth George
Michael Connelly
Laurie R. King
Clive Barker

Suggestions & opinions welcome: email me!

Other chapter books we've enjoyed:
