It seems like several years have passed since the last time I chose to invest in any fictional works. I always try to find what I want at the local libraries, city and county. I have so often been disappointed in many of the new books I have bought and, as we all know, books are expensive these days.
This rule of thumb has been broached, however, just recently. All because I could not find this Emma M. Lion series at the library except as audio books. So I took a leap of faith and purchased Volumes One and Two, as a test. Well, they exceeded my expectations (!) and so I followed up with Volumes Three, Four and Five, which arrived Sunday. When these have been read, there are still Volumes Six, Seven and Eight to procure, with a Volume Nine reportedly nearing publication.
In addition, a friend highly recommended Theo of Golden by Allen Levi, which also arrived Sunday.
Looking forward to several days of happy escapism into other places and other times . . .
