I discovered Carolyn Haines' mystery series when I decided to do my Themed Reading Challenge using books that had the word bone in the title. (That's how I stumbled across Kathy Reich's novels, too)
This series features Sarah Booth Delaney as a private investigator in the Mississippi Delta. There's a good mix of humor, friendship, forbidden love and a satisfying mystery. The characters are human and Southern. I can't say the characters are real, because one reappearing character is a figment of Sarah Booth's imagination.
I have enjoyed reading two from this series - neither one in the correct order. Someday I'm going to start at the beginning, but I don't think it's hindered my enjoyment that I've been hit-and-miss so far. I love the covers on the earlier books with the square in the middle.
I have an affinity for titles containing "bone/s." Also, the Mississippi Delta is a draw!
ReplyDeleteThe only "Bones" book I've read thus far is" "The Lovely Bones" but I am really interested in reading Kathy Reich's books (I love the tv show "Bones"). This series looks interesting too, thanks for sharing such good ideas!
ReplyDeleteI really like to the book cover. So, are you mooching this?
