Intrepid Reader Karen had a great summer reading.
How great? Well, it looks like she consumed the entire Outlander series and immersed herself in cozy mysteries.
Did you know "cozy mysteries" is a thing? I have been reading them for ages and just thought that was my author's pet name for her series.
"Cozy mysteries" apparently involve cats saving humans from their own foolishness. (Maybe it's just me....) Well, I know my cats are exhausted each night after they keep me out of danger every day, even when I am at work — thanks to the Cat Networks.
At any rate, here is what Karen read this summer:
As a reward for a summer well-spent, Karen received a copy of Mr. Penumbra's 24-Hour Bookstore — which you all might want to put on your holiday gift list. Just saying.
What did you read this summer? Did you discover a new author or genre? Let us know: comment below, or send me an email.
Have you plotted out your Winter Reads, or are you winging it and banking on a book bonanza for the holidays? Discuss!
And a special shout-out to the artist of this year's Summer Reading graphic: Beth Wilson and her DoodleCats!
