It's Monday: Here's What I'm Reading

It's Monday, What Are You Reading? hosted by Book Date Also, visit Mailbox Monday.
Dead Cold Brew by Cleo Coyle, to be released January 10, 2017, Berkley.
Very enjoyable and complex plot, intriguing characters. Love the NYC setting of the coffee shop mystery series. 

I finished this book while I was recovering from surgery. It was a great comfort during that trying time!

I am reading a galley of When All the Girls Have Gone by Jayne Ann Krentz, November 29, 2016, Berkley 

A fairly suspenseful story of a woman trying to find her stepsister and solve the murder of her sister's best friend. 
Metaphors Be With You: An Z to Z dictionary of history's greatest metaphorical quotations by Dr. Mardy Grothe,  December 6, 2016, Harper

A book to open at random and savor a few pages at a time.

Here's a quote from the section on Poets:
To be a poet is a condition rather than a profession. - Robert Graves
And on Writing:
Writing is seduction. - Stephen King
On Committees:
A camel is a horse designed by a committee. - Author Unknown

Add a cozy to my reading list:
Pop Goes the Murder: A Popcorn Shop Mystery by Kristi Abbott, January 3, 2017; Berkley

First paragraph:
I knocked on the hotel room door. No  one answered. I glanced at my watch. Seven forty-five in the morning. I was right on time....

Building suspense from the start, this cozy mystery is next on my reading list.

How about your reading?

Sunday Salon: New Branch Library

I went on opening day to our newest branch library in Sylvania and found this book that in other branches must be on a very long waiting list. The new branch had almost all new books laid out for readers to pick up. My new library find and current read:

A Great Reckoning, the 12th in the Chief Inspector Armand Gamache mystery series, August 30, 2016, Minotaur. It's intriguing because of the main character and the police force, whose detecting techniques and thinking processes are fascinating to follow.

In my mailbox this week,

A galley of When All the Girls Have Gone by Jayne Ann Krentz, November 29, 2016, from Berkley
A modern day thriller about a woman searching for her step-sister and helped by a PI.
