September reads

Craig Johnson, Death Without Company
#2 in the series about the sheriff in Wyoming. Very well done in terms of plot, characters, humor. A great series.

Craig Johnson, Kindness Goes Unpunished
#3 in the series, another great one

Marcia Muller, The Ever Running Man
Latest in the Sharon McCone series, one of my long-time favorites. In this one, Sharon has to investigate Hy and his partners in order to find out who is trying to destroy them and their firm.

Susan Isaacs, Past Perfect
Funny novel with a light mystery element. Isaacs makes me laugh out loud at least a few times per book. In this one, a woman who was fired from her low-level job at the CIA and still doesn't know why has the chance to find out what was going on. As she digs into the past, things get tricky and turn into a spy thriller (with that hint of farce).

Jodi Picoult, Plain Truth
Jodi Picoult, Second Glance
Jodi Picoult, The Pact
Jodi Picoult, The Tenth Circle

Had never gotten around to reading any of her work and for some reason finally tried one. Plain Truth was an excellent legal thriller, and I just gobbled up a bunch of hers. I loved all four of these, although Second Glance and The Tenth Circle were my favorites. I really admire the complexity of her plotting.
