A Fresh Year and All I Have Heard

I have gotten crazy behind on "All I have heard" so to go along with a fresh year I am going to have a fresh start on one my few running posts.

So I am going to start the year off with a few favorite series I have been listening to lately:

Janet Evanovich's Wicked Series

     

I have really enjoyed these two books they are fun, playful and I can always get into anything involving Diesel! 

I also enjoy the goofy supernatural antics.

Debbie Macomber's Ceder Cove Series

Debbie Macomber is another romance writer machine but I can't get enough of her. 

I have read and listened to a few of her stand alone novels but the Ceder Cove series has really grabbed me.

I love fellowing the multiple residences of the Ceder Cove and just slipping into their lives.

Alexander McCall Smith's No. 1 Ladies Detective Agency

 I love this series it features two interesting and strong women.  

It paints a beautiful pictures of their beloved Africa and enjoyable mysteries as well.

Jan Karon's Father Tim/ Mitford Series

My Mother introduced me to Father Tim on our road trip to Baltimore.  

This series was truly beautiful.  

This peak into the wonderful life of Father Tim's life is refreshing and heart warming.

  I have to admit I am glad that I have more to look forward to in the last three books of the series left.

Charlaine Harris 

Sookie Stackhouse Series 

I am addicted to this series and am sad that I am three books from the end.  

 I started these books to hold me over after the season finale of the TV series and the suggestion of my local librarian but have fallen in love with it even more!

*Team Eric!* 

 A Lily Bard Mystery Series 

I am still on the fence about this series I love it but Lily's extremely 

"I'm a victim, back off world or I will kick your ass" attitude was a turn off in the first two books.

The third book has began to redeem this as

 I see Lily begin to shed this hard protective outer shell  and I will keep listening on.

Jennifer Chiaverini's Elm Creek Quilters Series

I can always count on these books to get me in the quilting mood!

Another reason

 I think I love this series is the dream of having these women as my friends and mentor quilting wise. 

 I have found some friends who also enjoy quilting but not as strong of a connected as the

 Elm Creek Quilters.

Last One Promise!

Iris Johansen Eve Duncan Series

I have only read one of the books but I'm hooked!  

This was a random pickup at my local library.

I really am excited to start at the beginning of Eve's story (since I started with book 11).

Well more to come I hope to start doing these mini segments with more details at the start of each month.

Stay tuned!
