Hi Cozy Community I am very excited to announce the launch of my new book “A White Rabbit’s Tale” book 6 in the Antique Hunters Mysteries series. For those of you who have followed Anne and CC on their many adventures hunting antiques and killers, this book contains a very big surprise, that’s all I […]

If I could, I would spend all day reading and talking about books. Nothing gives me more pleasure than to share my love of reading with others. I constantly loan books to friends and discuss them. So, a few years ago when I saw my first Little Free Library, I knew I wanted one. This […]

I haven’t written a post in quite a while.  2019 ended on a crazy note and time got away from me. Here’s how I spent my time I finished the edits and quietly released the sixth book in my Antique Hunters Mystery Series: A White Rabbit’s Tale. You can find it via this link: A […]

            I spent the weekend in good company with three girlfriends traveling from Greenville, South Carolina, to Atlanta, Georgia. Our quest: finding hidden treasures at the Scott Antique Market held monthly at the Atlanta Expo Center. Spanning two buildings with almost 500,000 square feet, the expo center is a shopper’s delight.             We spent the […]

            I have been a long-time fan of John Grisham. My introduction to his writing came with the Firm. I followed that one by reading A Time to Kill which is one of my all-time favorite suspense/legal novels. Since then I think I have read all of his books though I could say I haven’t […]

I’ve been on a reading roll lately, and the books I’ve been reading seem to center around the theme of female repression. This reading journey began in late September when I decided to reread Margaret Atwood’s now classic, The Handmaid’s Tale. I had read it years ago when it was first released but now with […]

Happy Halloween! I’ve been fascinated with paranormal and ghostly sightings since I was little. The area where I grew up was nearby a well-known urban myth. I grew up on Chicago’s southwest side near Resurrection Cemetery, home to Resurrection Mary. A spectral figure, Mary was said to walk along the road at night, asking strangers […]

It’s Halloween and time to list the books that send chills up my spine. I thought I’d share my favorite scariest reads with you. Salem’s Lot by Stephen King. I read this when I was in high school, and it scared me so much that I still have to sleep with my lights on. In […]

All right, I admit I have an addiction. I cannot stop buying books. And even though I have a Kindle fire, and the kindle app on my iPad and iPhone, I still buy paper books. Maybe it’s because I stare at computer screens all day that I can’t bring myself to read onscreen. I do […]
