I like mysteries for two main reasons. I like a good puzzle and I like to figure out the bad guy. I also am fascinated with personalities, especially demented ones. Maybe if I understand them better, I can spot the psycho killers amongst us! I love to be scared, but I am a tough sell in that arena. You've gotta be really good to scare me!Sandy Nawrothttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00564390728106776030noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8684061712648858453.post-58794603507558850912009-09-13T14:38:07.682-04:002009-09-13T14:38:07.682-04:00double posting...ok, had to order a used copy of t...double posting...ok, had to order a used copy of the Page book.

It's a cozy but it's near water and it obviously has a lighthouse. Might be something you would read. Anything by William Martin is a good bet as you did tell us you liked books set in New England. Back Bay, Cape Cod, The Lost Constitution are all good choices. The protagonist is an antique book seller. Some historical mixed with a little adventure and mystery. Great stuff!Kayehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10282803815704229945noreply@blogger.com
