    1. My plan is to read all of the Miss Marple books in order. This one is Number 3!

    2. I am a big believer in reading a series in order, even if the titles are stand-alones. I don't know if it is my OCD or what. I can't stand things out of order. I want to read all of her books, and I think I would love them quite a lot. But how can one top 'And Then There Were None', one of my top three fave books of ALL TIME???

    1. It really was! The Earps definitely had a different outlook on marriage, but it was the West after all, and life certainly was different. I knew they'd all been married or had common law wives many times, but I really loved learning as much about the women themselves as we can possibly hope to know.

  3. I love the Wild West books. I used to read nonfiction like that when I was a preteen and obsessed with adventure stories. I hope you enjoy these!

    1. My recent review of Tombstone sparked it. Clavin is a great writer.

  5. I'm still sad about the passing of Naya Rivera. Hope you get to enjoy her book.

    We watched Back to the Future III last night and it was all about the wild wild west! Your books would have fit perfectly.

    Hope you will have a good week. Here's my The Sunday Post

    1. I never watched Glee, but something about Naya's story struck me hard. I watched the coverage for days, and repeatedly watched her rendition of 'If I Die Young' for Finn/Cory. I could not stop bawling. She was incredibly talented and I have watched several clips of her from the show. I am not even sure what drew me in, but I enjoyed the book and wish I would have watched the show from the beginning and gotten to know Santana Lopez, she was a badass, much like Naya herself sounded.

      I recently reviewed a NetGalley ARC on Earp's Vendetta Ride and it sparked my love of the West once again. Clavin is a great writer!

      Thanks for coming by!

  6. I see you are on a Wild West kick.
    Only two books in for me this week:
    Nobody Knows My Name by James Baldwin (I finished the biography last night!)
    This Is the Night Our House Will Catch Fire by Nick Flynn, from my Nervous Breakdown Book Club subscription.
    Happy Reading!

    1. I recently reviewed that NetGalley ARC about Wyatt Earp's Vendetta Ride to avenge Morgan's murder and the attempt on Virgil's life. It sparked my interest in the West again, and Clavin is a great writer!

      I will be getting some Baldwin when I get some of these other books read from my BLM reading list.

  7. Love that you went out West with your library picks. I'll have to check out the Paul Clavin books.

    1. I thought I was over the West for a while but then writing my ARC review of his book on Tombstone sparked the love in me again. I definitely recommend the his Tombstone book, about Wyatt Earp's Vendetta Ride. I am anxious to start the other two. Sometimes the West can be a tad on the boring side, depending who is doing the writing. Clavin so far has not disappointed!
