They've got a bunch of her Sookie Stackhouse novels. Mayhaps I will try them next. Brought home “Three Bedrooms, One Corpse” Teagarden mystery from the library yesterday.

It is a YA book and it is actually a series. Have not found the other two books yet. This is not his only series--he has a couple of others. Easy read and very well done... my .02 worth Not to hi-jack this thread, but a well done book in the fantasy line is Sabriel by Garth Nix. It is a YA book and it is actually a series.

I agree, you look much better with your own nose. :-) Haven't read any Rhys Bowen, but will add her to the list. As Fall comes on, I'll want to be curled up with cozy little mysteries even more than I am now. Well done, you! I agree, you look much better with your own nose. :-)

Have you gotten ahold of any Rhys Bowen mysteries yet? I agree that "For Want of a Nail" looks ungainly. But who knows, maybe you will love it.

I took the last Teagarden book back to the library and picked up the next item I had on hold--and was a tad dismayed to find it was a much more serious book than I was expecting. It's "For Want of a Nail: If Burgoyne Had Won at Saratoga", and it's written like a serious history book; I was somehow expecting a historical novel. It comes highly recommended, so I'm giving it a fair chance...but it's SO not what I'm in the mood for! Oh, me too–I call them ‘popcorn books’, because I eat them by the handful.

They are well written and quite portable - perfect to read while riding the stationary bike at the Y. I've read some of the Aurora Teagarden's plus 'Shakespeare's Landlord' the first of the Lily Bard series. I wish my local library had the complete sets. I love these ‘little’ mystery series.
