 What's Good That You've Read Lately?...
Taking a little trip to visit cousins and have a relaxing week.  Would love to take a good book along for the plane ride and suntime. I loved Twilight series, but not up for much gorey stuff otherwise.  Enjoy a good mystery, romance.... Ideas anyone?.....

I liked Twilight too and would also recommend the Divergent series and the Maze Runner series. I'm a fan of young adult fiction even though I'm an "old lady" according to my teensagers!

No 1 ladies detective agency. There are about 10 books. While I cannot read anything else that Alexander McCall Smith writes, this series enchants me.
I have not read it yet but Dorthea Benton Frank has a new book out. I love everything else she has written.

Googled her--these books appear to be kind of along the lines I'm looking for.

I was reading Carl Hiaasen's Bad Monkey, but I had to stop to get back to writing my own book, which is due today and not done yet. So...why am I here?
I'm waiting to read Revenge Wears Prada, the sequel to Devil. And also loving the Phillipa Gregory Tudor historicals now.

I've been reading the Wicked Years books by Gregory Maguire (Wicked, Son of a Witch, A Lion Among Men, and Out of Oz.) Wicked is the book that the musical is based off of. I've just started the 3rd one. They're interesting and something completely different.

Reason: Spelling and remembered the name of the last book in the series

I love all of Phillipa Gregory's novels. If you enjoy historical dramas/romances you'll like her books. She's easy ready.
Jodi Picoult is always a safe bet too.

Alright, I've seen over and over that you're a writer, or that you're attending conventions for the like. I must ask, what genre do you write? What titles have you written? You have my interest piqued.

I'm working on my seventh novel now, which is going to be a historical romance, a three book series set in Edwardian England (like Downton Abbey). I've written women's fiction, historical romance, paranormal romance, and horror/comedy/sci-fi. That last combination comes in because booksellers seem to disagree on where to place my last two books on shelves. They were my most successful, sometimes called "classic mash-ups." Jane Slayre, for instance, was Jane Eyre reimagined with Jane as a vampire slayer. Not for everyone, but it was a fun project for me.
You can find me on Amazon, Barnes and Noble, any online bookseller, or my own website has a link on my profile here. I publish under Sherri Browning, Sherri Erwin, or Sherri Browning Erwin. And don't forget you can use the Amazon link through Intercot to buy books (which helps this site). I'm not the only writer around here, but I won't out anyone. I guess I tend to offer personal info more than I realized.

If you enjoyed the Twilight series you might like the Hunger Games series. I read both and liked Hunger Games much more.

These sound interesting to me. We are getting ready to take a looong road trip and I will have some reading time in the next 2-3 weeks. A trip to the bookstore might be in order!

Has anyone read Life After Life by Kate Atkinson yet? It has been getting some good buzz and looks interesting. A woman keeps reliving her life until she gets it right.

Haven't read it but (and apologies for this  )
it's a horror story, right?
Just a bit of a joke; some days are hard enough going through once.
Can't help with any book titles - I'm in a Richard Stark/Sam Eastland rut currently. With some Anne Perry (Monk series) thrown in occasionally.
Btw, love Hiaasen.

Not sure if my response is too late for your trip or not, but check out "On the Island" by Tracy Garvis-Graves. Good story line and very fast read. Anyone I have recommended it to has loved it!

Thanks! Glad to see these are still rolling in even after my trip! Thanks to my Disney pals here I've discovered Dorothea Benton Frank, finished my first book of hers, and have already checked out two more! Right on it, Disney Obsessed! Thanks so much~I love her style! I am grateful for all these suggestions and enjoying checking them all out! Will bring some on my upcoming Disney trip for pool time!
