I love the Murder She Wrote series...and now I get to watch reruns on my Hallmark channel, new to my service provider.
ReplyDeleteEnjoy your books...and here are MY WEEKLY UPDATES
Harvee, you have many enticing books here. I hope each is an enjoyable read. We are still in the midst of hot, summery weather here (Southern CA tends to have long summers).
ReplyDeleteI loved to watch the Murder She Wrote TV Show. Another book coming up - I will have to add to my Goodreads
ReplyDeletePretty much all your books are tempting me! I love Murder She Wrote in TV show format and have been meaning to read some of the books. I haven't read Laura Childs or Carolyn Hart in far too long and I'm looking forward to catching up! Have a great week!
ReplyDeleteA Cup of Water Under My Bed looks really good to me.
ReplyDeleteOur nights have cooled off but our days are still plenty warm.
I really enjoyed Ordinary Grace. Sounds like we've had the same weather. We'll be back in the 70s this week.
ReplyDeleteUsually I welcome new seasons. This year I am a little sad that summer is over.
ReplyDeleteMy wife bought The Girl in the Spider Web. I am curious to how different it is from the original series.
