A Body to Spare by Sue Ann Jaffarian, 312 pages

Odelia Grey has discovered yet another body. To clear her name, Odelia and her family must start investigating not only who placed the body in her car trunk, but who killed the young man. As always, it's a race to solve the crime before she finds herself dead as well.
These are always funny and fast-paced reads. I'll keep reading as long as the author keeps writing.

The Dead Duke , His Secret Wife, and the Missing Corpse by Piu Marie Eatwell, 338 pages

In 1898, the case that filled newspaper front pages and fascinated people across the English world, was the case of the Druce family. Some family members claimed that patriarch T.C. Druce had actually been the 5th Duke of Portland who ended his second life by faking the death of T.C. Druce. Millions of dollars and a title were at stake in this high-stakes case that took years to work its way through the courts and still left many questions unanswered.
This was an interesting case and kept me reading.

Torso by Brian Michael Bendis and Marc Andreyko, 280 pages

The pick for this month's Comics and Cocktails book club. Based on a series of murders in Cleveland in the 1930s. The artwork was very hard to read and follow. Not my favorite one so far.

The Elfstones of Shannara by Terry Brooks, 564 pages

The second in an truly outstanding fantasy series. MTV has turned this book into a tv show, The Shannara Chronicles.

Beastly Bones by William Ritter by 295 pages

I finished Jackaby and waited about 5 hours before starting the sequel. Just as fabulous as the first but now I have to wait until August for the third one.

The Life and Amours of the Beautiful, Gay & Dashing Kate Percival by "Kate Percival", 98 pages

Using Project Guttenberg, I've put a lot of old and obscure stuff on my e-reader for when I'm out and by some fluke, don't have a book to read. I picked this based on the title, just turned out to be a bad early edition of Fifty Shades without the bondage. I'm almost too ashamed to list it.

The Secret Chord by Geraldine Brooks, 525 pages

This has sat on my to-read list for months and I finally made myself pick it up. A truly outstanding look at the King David's life. I love historical Christian fiction, but only if it's well-done and not untrue to Biblical belief while not being preachy. The author did an amazing job of bringing this truly flawed but magnificent man. He is the perfect example of how God truly uses the imperfect for his perfect plan.
