It’s a good thing that I love to read because I have added more books to my list…On May 1, the Mystery Writers of America announced their 2008 Edgar Allan Poe Award Winners. Wow! These books look great and I can’t wait to read them!
Best Novel
Down River by John Hart
(Reviewed in our Reading Room)
Best First Novel by An American Author
In the Woods by Tana French
(Reviewed in our Reading Room)
Best Paperback Original
Queenpin by Megan Abbott
Best Fact Crime
Reclaiming History: The Assassination of President John F. Kennedy by Vincent Bugliosi
Best Critical/Biographical
Arthur Conan Doyle: A Life in Letters edited by Jon Lellenberg, Daniel Stashower and Charles Foley
I also finished reading The Sugar Queen by Sarah Addison Allen and I loved it! It was just as magical, tender yet bittersweet as her first book. Look for my review in our Reading Room Database.
Reading is a basic tool in the living of a good life.

Happy Reading!
