Mysteries

My favorite type of story to read is mysteries. It all started when I was in fourth grade. I read so many Nancy Drew books. I have continued to read mysteries. I like to read one with an amateur detective figuring out the mystery. So, in that way it is like Nancy Drew solving a mystery. When I read that our newest Associate Supreme Court justice Sonia Sotomayor liked Nancy Drew mysteries, too. I have also learned that Sandra Day O’Connor, Ruth Bader Ginsberg, Hillary Clinton and Laura Bush also read Nancy Drew. It is great that women of many generations liked and read Nancy Drew mysteries. From reading these books and many others I became a librarian.

I have my favorite mystery and series. They are as followed:
Susan Wittig Albert
China Bayles Series
Set in the Texas Hill country China Bayle owns an herb shop and becomes involved in different mysteries. This well written series is superb.
Cottage Tales of Beatrix Potter

mysteries.

Earlene Fowler
