Yesterday I went to a author signing at Barnes and Noble. Both Ellery Adams and Maggie Sefton were there, and Kim and I got to spend quite a bit of time talking to them! Both writers are known for being cozy mystery authors, although Maggie Sefton's new book is a darker mystery called Deadly Politics- set in Washington, DC! It's a political thriller, and trust me, I much prefer reading about fictional dirty politics then real life politics any day! Plus I grew up in Northern Virginia, so I love, love, love reading books or watching tv shows set in that area.
Ellery has a new series out, and I picked up the first (and newest) one, Pies and Prejudice. Which is awesome, because I like both pies and Pride and Prejudice, so I can't see this not being a great read. I also chatted with Ellery about her elaborate plans to teach her son's class about Egyptian mummies, and I might ask her to do a guest post about it, because it is truly amazing.
So here's what I'm in bed with today:
Pies and Prejudice by Ellery Adams and Deadly Politics by Maggie Sefton!
Now it's your turn, what are you reading today? Add your link below!
That's so cool that you guys got to go to that signing! I've only been to 2 author events before, so I'm super excited about the Austin Teen Book Fest! Hopefully I'll come away with some swag as cool as what you got! Hope you have a great day!
ReplyDeleteI love the two column look! And thanks bunches for linking me, you rock! I have so many books that I want to read so bad right now and I definitely need to read one of Ellery Adams. Pies & Prejudice sounds so cute too! And I totally agree that politics are way better in books than in real life!
ReplyDeleteI will come back for the Carrie questions... sometimes this week cause I'm reading Chain Letter and I've been kind of side tracked by my new favorite channel (NFL Red Zone) so I probably won't get to it today.
WOOT WOOT! Pies and Prejudice---I had fun with that book. I want Deadly Politics but have made myself swear off buying books till I read my cozy shelf :)_
ReplyDeleteI may have to read the Dirty Politics because you know I love all things DC!!!
