Hope you find something that looks interesting to you or that makes you remember a favorite book you need to finish. Enjoy your reading this week!

On sale this week for Kindle: $1.99 (I spent zero with my digital points)

I have three books now by this author. The are hard to get for a good price in the States so when they go on sale I buy them. Apparently I need to get started reading them! This book is set in 1485 just as Richard III takes the throne. It follows the story of Grace Plantagenet, illegitimate daughter of Edward IV and therefore a half sister of the Princes in the Tower. She is caught up in the sordid events of the time along with the Perkin Warbeck scandal, the boy claiming to be one of her half brothers. It looks interesting and these covers are beautiful!

Borrowed from Libby: Free (with membership each year of $50)

I had no idea this author had written mysteries, much less a Christmas one. It looks like a crime fiction, Agatha Christie type story and I know Heyer is a wonderful writer so it should be good. I'm hoping to read it before Christmas but my TBR pile is enormous right now. If you've read it let me know if you liked it!

Amazon Kindle Purchase:  (Free with digital points)

I have several books by this author and this is book one in his Marius Quinn mystery series. There are so many cozy mysteries set during the 1920's with female leads and these books have a male one. So I want to read them for a change. He has at least two sets of series that I know of and it's just unusual for a male author with a male lead for these types of books. Getting book one on sale is always a plus too.
