Sunday Salon: Reading about Provence, and Love in the Time of Cholera

Murder in Aix, 2013 publication, Kindle edition

I am now on #5 of the Maggie Newberry Mystery series 

Murder in Aix,

set in the south of France. Maggie's husband is a vineyard owner and a chef and she has become a writer in addition to being an amateur sleuth. I love the settings of the books, which includes her husband's house and vineyard in a small Provence village. There are 17 books in the series. I'm on the 5th. 

The only other mystery series I've followed and read faithfully are by Swedish writer, Viveca Sten, and British writer, Elly Griffiths.  And of course, North America's Louise Penney. Look them up!

These and other books should keep me occupied during my social distancing during the time of coronavirus. By the way, I'm also reading 

Love in the Time of Cholera by Gabriel Garcia Marquez,  published 2003, set in Colombia, South America at the turn of the 19thth century. 

A love story like no other, they say, made more poignant because of the dire circumstances.
