Lol. I've most recently read Lawhead's take on the King Arthur stories.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/good-book-for-a-bad-cold#post-1200055 Thu, 20 Mar 2014 16:47:03 +0000 L'Abeille 1200055@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>How are you enjoying Byzantium? I am a Lawhead fan from way back and that is my favourite of his, yet I could never persuade anyone else to try it. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/good-book-for-a-bad-cold#post-1199994 Thu, 20 Mar 2014 15:26:55 +0000 rachylou 1199994@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Gaylene - that sounds so interesting! Irritating sisters, pie and poison! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/good-book-for-a-bad-cold#post-1199987 Thu, 20 Mar 2014 15:16:06 +0000 MsMaven 1199987@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thanks for your replies. &nbsp;Last night I started a Lawhead book,&nbsp;<i>Byzantium,&nbsp;</i>about a 10th century monk sent to take a Book of Kells to Byzantium. &nbsp;Good reviews on writing and historical fiction. &nbsp;I also checked and see that since I last checked a new Elizabeth George mystery has been released, so that will be next. &nbsp;Then I'll check out some of the others you have suggested. &nbsp;</p> <p>I'm not familiar with Atkinson or Bradley, but they both sound great!</p> <p>I feel somewhat better today, but was up reading in the middle of the night. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/good-book-for-a-bad-cold#post-1199811 Thu, 20 Mar 2014 11:55:38 +0000 April 1199811@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Shameless plug for any mystery by SJ Rozan. &nbsp;I'm not a mystery reader but SJ is an&nbsp;acquaintance of mine and I always recommend her to anyone who loves the mystery genre. &nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/good-book-for-a-bad-cold#post-1199709 Thu, 20 Mar 2014 05:03:38 +0000 kellygirl 1199709@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>@Gaylene: Adding your author too. Sounds like a marvelous read. &nbsp;Thanks!&nbsp;</p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/good-book-for-a-bad-cold#post-1199703 Thu, 20 Mar 2014 04:46:39 +0000 Gaylene 1199703@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I'll second anything by Elizabeth George and Kate Atkinson, but, if you haven't met eleven-year-old Flavia de Luce yet, I'd recommend <i>The Sweetness at the Bottom of the Pie</i> by Alan Bradley. A totally enchanting sleuth and chemistry prodigy with a more than passing interest in poison. Throw in a couple of irritating older sisters and dying man in the cucumber patch and you'll have the perfect antidote for a cold. Plus there are sequels just in case you're not better in a day or so. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/good-book-for-a-bad-cold#post-1199694 Thu, 20 Mar 2014 04:17:22 +0000 kellygirl 1199694@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Ooh, must check out your author. I love mysteries. I love Elizabeth George mysteries and the Jackson Brody series by Kate Atkinson. I would read those when I'm under the weather. Hope that you are feeling better soon! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/good-book-for-a-bad-cold#post-1199680 Thu, 20 Mar 2014 03:55:34 +0000 columbine(erin) 1199680@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Hmm, have you read Brandon Sanderson's novels? Or Stephen Lawhead? They have lots on Kindle, I think. Suspenseful but not mystery, though.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/good-book-for-a-bad-cold#post-1199679 Thu, 20 Mar 2014 03:54:08 +0000 annagybe 1199679@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I absolutely adored Julia Child's My Life in France. I should warn you it'll make you hungry. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/good-book-for-a-bad-cold#post-1199677 Thu, 20 Mar 2014 03:52:26 +0000 MsMaven 1199677@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Arhgh--I caught a cold from my SIL--haven't had one in ages. &nbsp;I'm going to be recovered before the latest Peter Robinson mystery arrives on my doorstep. &nbsp;I need suggestions for a mystery or a suspense. &nbsp;Nothing heavy--I feel oh so heavy as it is. &nbsp;I think I have another day or two before I'll be out and about. &nbsp;</p> <p>I have some serious stuff I could read, but head is stuffed cotton. &nbsp;Any idea for a Kindle book? </p>
