We had a great group this morning for the discussion of Catherine Coulter's THE COVE. Opinions on the mystery(ies) were mixed but it gave us a lot to talk about.
.

We welcomed two new members today, Avis and Cathy! It was wonderful to have their observations and mystery-reading experience added to our usual group. We have a great group of women who enjoy the mystery genre and I am grateful for you all!

.

We also discussed our favorite Nancy Drew novel, mine being The Hidden Staircase. My copy is very old and weathered and was published prior to 1945. I compared it to a newer publication on B&N bookselves and found that, although the basic story was the same, it had been significantly rewritten. I have my theories as to why the changes but, if you know more specifics, please let me know.
.

Our selection for May is actually two books in one - Death on Demand and Design for Murder by Carolyn G. Hart.

.

Some of us have previous experience with Carolyn Hart, but for others she will be a new writer. We hope that you will pick up a copy of this dual read and join us for our discussion May 18th at 10:00 a.m.

.

Until I see you in May, happy reading,

.
