Before we turn our backs on 2021, it only makes sense that we reflect back on those books that lingered with us as we hunkered down and rode the waves of "Pandemic Year #2" (ugh! whatta year!).
In no particular order (well, okay, in the order in which they were received), here are the BRP bloggers and their stated favorites from the-year-that-will-not-be-named-again (at least in this post):
Diana HurwitzDani Greer
Ann Parker
- Barbara Hambly's Benjamin January historical mystery series (Hambly also writes a LOT of fantasy)
- Silverview by John le Carré
- Middle-grade book The House at the Edge of Magic by Amy Sparkes, featuring an adorable troll housekeeper called Eric who should never be parted from his pink feather duster
Polly Iyer
Maryann Miller
What about you? If there's a book or series you read last year that stuck with you (in a good way!), please share in the comments below.
Wishing you all a good year ahead, with many good books to read and the time to read them! |
Ann Parker authors the award-winning Silver Rush historical mystery series published by Poisoned Pen Press, an imprint of Sourcebooks. During the day, she wrangles words for a living as a science editor/writer and marketing communications specialist (which is basically a fancy term for "editor/writer"). Her midnight hours are devoted to scribbling fiction. Visit AnnParker.net for more information. |
Ooooh, some new reading!
