Book tastes

I love London, so anything connected to London is a hit with me — history, culture, mystery, modern or classic novels set in London, travel guides or memoirs, etc. I also enjoy cozy mysteries (cat-focused!), psychological mysteries and thrillers, and true crime.

Other notes

Any favorite book you love and recommend to others would be great!

tealadytoo: For cat-themed cozies, I'd recommend Leanne Sweeney's "Cats in Trouble" series, which starts with "The Cat, The Quilt and the Corpse". (nov 29, 2023, 10:46am)
