It's still Autumn, but the weather feels like Winter has arrived early. The cold weather provides the perfect opportunity to find a cozy spot and curl up with a good book and a cup of hot chocolate. I've been sharing a list of new mysteries that I am looking forward to read. They include meeting and catching up with some new and some old familiar characters.

    character: Scotland Yard Det. Chief Insp. Henry Johnstone
    setting: 1929 London

What are you reading this summer? For the past couple of years I've been sharing a list of new mysteries that I am looking forward to - and here is the latest batch. I've already started checking off some on my summer mysteries list. I've met some new and some old familiar characters and am looking forward to meeting and catching up with some more. To get your started, if you like historical mysteries then check the The Darwin Affair  by Tim Mason. I enjoyed It.

A couple of times a year I share a list of mysteries that I am looking forward to reading. Sometimes it's a whole new character that I'm wanting to meet and sometimes it's an old friend that I'm looking forward to reconnecting with. Here are some that have caught my eye this spring.
