I think Dan DeCarlo was one of my favorite cartoonists from Archie.

Archie meets Glee, 112 pages
I requested this one for Samantha because she's a huge Glee fan but decided to read it myself as well.
Lord Peter by Dorothy Sayers, 487 pages
I'd never read any of Dorothy Sayers' mysteries before. Her short stories collection was great. I'm planning on working my way through the rest of her books featuring Lord Peter Wimsey.

Discord's Apple by Carrie Vaughn, 358 pages
Characters and artifacts from the Trojan War mixed with today's world. I really appreciate the great job Carrie Vaughn does with taking a genre or idea and turning it on it's head. This was a fantastic read.
She-Wolves, The Women Who Ruled England Before Elizabeth by Helen Castor, 480 pages
A book for book club. I love anything that is English history and this was my cup of tea. I didn't know very much about the early women of England except for Eleanor of Aquitaine so it was nice to add to my knowledge. I do wish they would have used more names than Henry and Edward though, lol.
Blood and Circuses by Kerry Greenwood, 208 pages
This was one of the darkest Phryne Fisher mysteries I've read so far. I really like this series. The characters, dialogue, plots, descriptions, it just all hits the mark for me.

The Marriage Game by Alison Weir, 402 pages
This was a completely fascinating look at the Queen Elizabeth's dance to protect her country through her eligibility as a marriage prize while planning on never marrying. She came very close with Robert Dudley, probably the one man she truly loved, but stayed single to the day she died. Alison Weir always does a great job with historical fiction.
