In fact, one Plum was all I wanted (the rest can remain in the icebox) and Cornwell wore out her welcome quickly, too. But Reginald Hill and Peter Robinson still fascinate!jenclairhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06046532245054911248noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8684061712648858453.post-34844412948849997732009-09-09T12:22:50.593-04:002009-09-09T12:22:50.593-04:00Bandit, that is a good question.

I am sure he would have been proud. <br /><br />I am always happy that I can put on my silly hat and make you and any of my readers smile.<br /><br />Personally, I have considered the possibility that Ms. Cornwell was taken over by aliens from Saturn and everyone knows that Saturians can not write a good thriller!

I just so enjoy reading them, and this made me smile throughout. I totally agree with you on Ms. Plum and the Scarpetta books -- enough is enough with both of them.<br /><br />And the idea of the Dummies books being a series -- that one would read all of -- is just so silly.<br /><br />Thanks for making me smile.Jennershttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08044537551139633301noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8684061712648858453.post-42879282401313434292009-09-08T14:53:35.935-04:002009-09-08T14:53:35.935-04:00kathy, he is a very hard working dog, as you can s...kathy, he is a very hard working dog, as you can see from the <a href="http://theworldfromdownhere.blogspot.com/2009/08/moms-first-day-of-school.html" rel="nofollow">post on his blog</a> about his cleaning the niece's desk. work, work, work...<br /><br />dawn, I agree that it helps if the characters grown and change. one thing I like about Tess Gerritsen's series for example. but even then, maybe there comes a time to end it and move on.<br /><br />Yes Louise, from your home page on LT, if you go to stats at the top and then look on the left, under Common Knowledge, you will see the series link. each book in a series will be listed, with the number in the series. If you then click on the series title, you can see the whole series, with the ones you own checked off. <br /><br />As to Patricia, I will have to look for that. I think I have had more than one, but generally, I wonder if someone else didn't start writing the books about 7 years ago or so. Either that or something went very wrong, because the books turned simply awful. Not just a bad plot, but very badly written.caitehttp://caitesdayatthebeach.blogspot.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8684061712648858453.post-20032804437891195422009-09-08T14:44:30.845-04:002009-09-08T14:44:30.845-04:00I forgot Anne of Green Gables!

I'm not so crazy about books that take the same characters and put them in timeless situations (all I can think of are more kids books, like Nancy Drew ... those girls never had a birthday, despite years of adventures)Dawn @ sheIsTooFondOfBookshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09285873722005594325noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8684061712648858453.post-65788801017190204852009-09-08T11:35:49.959-04:002009-09-08T11:35:49.959-04:00I had books from 61 series, but I haven't read...I had books from 61 series, but I haven't read a lot of them.
