Hello my lovely, lovely friends. No, I have not been drinking, I'm just in a good mood! I have successfully gotten rid of about five garbage bags full of crap from my apartment. I have thrown out a bunch of old clothes, cleaned out the cabinets and refrigerator, and gotten rid of all the old magazines, etc., just laying around. Now I just need to find more space for my books - the collection just keeps growing, even though I am a frequent flyer at the library. How do I keep accumulating so many books? Pretty soon I will have to get rid of all of the furniture in my itty bitty apartment to add more bookcases to give my lovely books a home! Speaking of...
I just purchased two new books I cannot wait to read this weekend - I couldn't wait the three months it would take the library to get them! I plan to read one tonight and one tomorrow.
One is Crime Seen by Victoria Laurie. The fourth book in the psychic detective series by Ms. Laurie. I've enjoyed the first three, so I am greatly anticipating this one.
The second book is Undercover in High Heels by Gemma Halliday. This is Ms. Halliday's third book in the High Heels series about a shoe designer named Maddie who for various reasons ends up embroiled in mysteries. The first book, Spying in Heels is in development for a series on USA. In Spying in High Heels, Maddie's boyfriend goes missing just as she figures out that she is late and may be pregnant. Refusing to take the pregnancy test until the boyfriend is found, Maddie sets out to solve his disappearance herself. The second book, Killer in High Heels is hilarious as Maddie teams up with a few cross-dressers to solve a mystery surrounding her long lost father. I thoroughly enjoyed both books. Gemma Halliday is hilarious. You can check out her blog at www.killerfictionwriters.blogspot.com or her website at www.gemmahalliday.com.
Well, that's it for now.
Until next time -
