Monday Recommendation List

Random list of 10 books Monday! I have read and enjoyed each of these enough to flag for a potential personal library purchase.

Be bold and just choose randomly, stick to your normal genre...or step outside of your normal
reading zone and try something you usually wouldn’t. You can look up the descriptions at Amazon.com, or search my blog for old posts by entering the title in the little search box in the top left-hand corner and clicking the magnifying glass.

Mistress of Mellyn

Victoria Holt secured a place on my author list with “Mistress of Mellyn.” This is a classic, gothic romance. It had all the ingredients of suspense, mystery and romance while staying classy. I fell for the characters and loved the twists and turns. This is a great book for the romance genre enthusiast. And gentle enough for a young adult audience.
