Should first put that I'm dead tired from driving for the last 6hrs after leaving Baton Rouge. I've been down there the last week helping out with the Red Cross. People are still homeless so don't let the news fool you saying everything is ok. Can't sleep so my thoughts on stuff that I've read.
1.Denise Swanson's Scrumble River series is great. The woman can't write fast enough for me. This last book Death of a Smart Cookie ended on a cliff hanger...oh the mystery was solved but other stuff came up. They have to be read in order to really see the hows and whys.
2.Tim Cockey's Hitchcock Sewell series is also very good. Well the one that I've read anyway. They all have Hearse used in the title as a play on words. I read the Hearse Case Scenario. Fast pace,and written in that real first person way. And the ending did surprise me.
3. Edmund Crispin. it was written in the 40s and I don't know what he's trying to do. Very stilted laugange and just bad. I must have picked these up at a garage sale I have two of his books. Not going to go looking for any more. the book I'm reading is Holy Disorder. I've put it down four times to read other books. Pg 112 of 238
4. Margaret Frazer. Here nun ones can get a bit heavy but her newest one with the actor joliffe is lighter and shows that she does have a sense of humour. The second of this books are The Play of Dux Moraud.
Oh it was hot,humid and smelled in Baton Rouge.
