First Scarpetta Collection (Dr Kay Scarpetta Mysteries) 1 review Patricia Cornwell
Little Brown Company, 1995
Patricia Cornwell's Scarpetta Series
I have all of the books in this series. They are all very worth reading. Cornwell has developed an exciting and indepth character in Kay Scarpetta. If you read them by starting with the first book it is much easier to follow the story. Happy Reading.

The Stand (Modern Classics) 927 reviews Stephen King
Gramercy, 2001
Flagship King
+ A classic- but better cut + A must-read
I had long avoided this book because of it's length. I just wasn't sure that even a great author like Stephen King could keep me captivated for that long with a stand alone novel. I was told by a co-worker that I was not a true Stephen King fan if I had not read "The Stand", and the gauntlet was ...

Mistress of the Art of Death 63 reviews Ariana Franklin
Berkley Trade, 2008
brutal and intense, but great characters and plot
+ "Bones" set in the 12th Century!
I love a good historical mystery, and this was terrific in so many ways, but first a caveat: this plot deals with a series of child torture-murders (oh, I DO wish people would find something ELSE to write about!), and a number of scenes are graphic and brutal and horrific. As much as I enjoyed ...

Bethany House, 2004
Great Books!
+ Yes! All Three books in one and worth the effort to read. + This may be the best book I have ever read...
These books are really great, and are even better all together, versus each one seperately, because they all complete each other. I highly recommend these books to any avid Christian reader; they're some of my favorites!

The Probable Future (Ballantine Reader's Circle) 28 reviews Alice Hoffman
Ballantine Books, 2004
So Good, Wish it was Longer!
+ Quality Hoffman + My First Hoffman Novel
I really loved the characters in this Alice Hoffman novel. She always brings such life and magic into her stories, they live in my mind for a long time after I put the book down. The three generation of Sparrow women and their history is rich and wonderful. This story has a side of mystery to it as ...

I had bought this book to keep my mind occupied during a flight layover. I typically stick to murder mysteries but decided to try something new. Needless to say even after the layover I still couldn't put it down! (much to my fiancees dislike.) The book is so vivid and descriptive that I could ...
