So if you&#8217;re a recipient, keep an eye out.<\/p>\n<p>I still, however, have plenty of books in the basement, so if you want more, here&#8217;s what&#8217;s left:<br \/>\n<!--more--><br \/>\n<strong>Fantasy<\/strong><br \/>\n<a href=\"http:\/\/klishis.com\/Books\/fiction\/meyerla.php\">LA Meyer<\/a>: Bloody Jack. This is an interesting kids book that I liked&#8211;but not enough to read the rest of the series. There&#8217;s kissing (ew!) but nothing more.<br \/>\nDeborah Christian: Truthsayer&#8217;s Apprentice<br \/>\nN. Lee Wood: Bloodrights<br \/>\n<a href=\"http:\/\/klishis.com\/Books\/authors\/ruschk.php\">Kristen Kathryn Rusch<\/a>: The White Mists of Power. I enjoyed this book, but not enough to read again.<br \/>\nElizabeth Ann Scarborough: The Godmother<br \/>\n<a href=\"http:\/\/klishis.com\/Books\/authors\/towersd.php\">SD Tower<\/a>: The Assassins of Tamurin. I liked this book, but no interest in re-reading it.<br \/>\nDonna Gillespie: The Light Bearer<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/klishis.com\/Books\/authors\/lawheads.php\">Stephen R Lawhead<\/a>: Byzantium. I could not for the life of me get into this book.<br \/>\nKim Wilkins: Autumn Castle<br \/>\nLynn Abbey: The Wooden Sword<br \/>\nMary Gentle: A Secret History, The Book of Ash #1<br \/>\nGordon R Dickson: The Earthlords<br \/>\nStorm Constantine: The Crown of Silence<br \/>\nRobin Wayne Bailey: Shadowdance<br \/>\nSarah Monette: Melusine. Started this book and put it down because there are heavy sadism overtones. Not for me.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Fantasy series<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Diana Marcellas: Mother Ocean Daughter Sea, The Sea Lark&#8217;s Song<br \/>\nFiona Patton: The Stone Prince, Painter Knight<br \/>\nElizabeth Kerner: Song in the Silence, The Lesser Kindred<br \/>\nElizabeth Gilligan: Magic&#8217;s Silken Snare, The Silken Shroud<br \/>\nMindy L. Klasky: The Glasswrights series. Started the first book. Never got any further. Michael however enjoyed this series.<br \/>\nMercedes Lackey: various books in the Valdemar series. One hardback, the rest paperback.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Mystery series<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Anne Perry: Thomas and Charlotte Pitt series. I&#8217;m keeping the Monk series, but don&#8217;t have the desired to read this series again. All paperback.<br \/>\nCandace Robb: Owen Archer mysteries. I read and liked these. One paperback, three hardback.<br \/>\nLee Harris: Christine Bennett mysteries. I picked these up used for my grandmother, and she enjoyed them.<br \/>\nFaye Kellerman: Peter Drecker and Rina Lazarus mysteries. Bought these used for my grandmother, and she really liked them.<br \/>\nAlan Gordan: Jester series.  Grandmom read them, but never gave an opinion.<br \/>\nLyn Hamilton: Archeological Mysteries. Never read &#8217;em. Never got an opinion from my grandmother.<br \/>\nWilliam X. Kienzle: Father Koesler Mysteries. Picked these up as recommended for Grandmom, who really enjoyed them.<br \/>\nNancy Taylor Rosenberg: Mitigating Circumstances, Interest of Justice, First Offense, Trial by Fire. <\/p>\n<p><strong>Mystery<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/klishis.com\/Books\/mystery\/thompsonv.php\">Victoria Thompson<\/a>: Murder on Astor place. Good, but the heroine felt out of (her historical) time, so I never had the inclination to read more in this series.<br \/>\n<a href=\"http:\/\/klishis.com\/reading\/archives\/520\">Deanna Raybourn<\/a>: Silent in the Grave. Stupid heroine syndrome. And a heroine that clearly didn&#8217;t belong in the Victorian era.<br \/>\nEliot Pattison: Water Touching Stone.<br \/>\nEdna Buchanan: The Corpse Had a Familiar Face. This book actually moved more than once, and I never bothered to read it. Goodbye.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/klishis.com\/Books\/mystery\/mossek.php\">Kate Mosse<\/a>: Labyrinth. A New York Times Best Seller. No idea why. Trade paperback.<br \/>\n<a href=\"http:\/\/klishis.com\/Books\/mystery\/alexandert.php\">Tasha Alexander<\/a>: And Only to Deceive. Miscategorized as &#8220;A Novel of Suspense. Not suspenseful. This is a Victorian romance. Not my cup of tea, though my grandmother really liked it. Hardback.<br \/>\nNaked Came the Phoenix. I&#8217;d probably have read this if it wasn&#8217;t hardback.<br \/>\nMurder and Other Acts of Literature. Again, if this was paperback I&#8217;d probably have read it.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Books went out today. So if you&#8217;re a recipient, keep an eye out.
