@ Tammi - i read the original Sherlock Holmes stories when i was a kid and got back to them after i streamed the Jeremy Brett series. I do not like the new 'Sherlock' at all as a Sherlock Holmes show. As a mystery series set in modern day London it is okay but when i watch it i just don't believe whoever wrote it ever read Sherlock Holmes stories.

So since this Sherlock TV series is on is anyone else going back to read the original stories? I just got an old copy of all the stories at a library sale and am reading through them again. I liked the older series from the 80s better than the modern one.

'And Then There Were None' is a classic sort of 'locked room' mystery. You have only 10 people on a remote island and they are getting killed off one by one so the suspense hikes as you have to figure out why they are being targeted and who the killer is. Some of the language may seem old fashioned but it is really a good read.

Just read "I Am Me" by Ram Sundaram. It's a two-way book, with twin narratives that start from either end to meet in the middle. So you get 10 stories on each half. The table of contents are identical on each half, because the stories have the same title, but are written in two totally different ways! One half is more fantastical and dreamscape-ish, the other is set in reality. It's very interesting and really makes you look at life from a different perspective. MUST READ!

Lawman by Virginia Llorca is a fastpaced, dialogue drivne, somewhat racy modern love story. It is for sale on Amazon and Smashwords for Kindle and Kindle apps and all electronic readers.

If you like fast paced, hair raising suspense, then read the ‘Blue Fate Series’ by Cass Tell. These are intense action thrillers that follow compelling characters across international settings.

June - I bet it was the third Jane Rubino book. I tried to refer to the title too but it was blocked. Sometimes I run across a book with a really rude title that I would be embarrassed to carry to the checkout at a book store but this title is not snarky or obscene so I dont get it. Maybe some kind of filter at work.

Is this board overly sensitive? I tried to post the title of the book and there is nothing profane or slang about the title but it would not put my post through until I just put that it was the third book by this author. How do you post about a book if it is not possible to put the books title in the post?
