Because my Kindle is an electronic device I have to have an actual book when I travel on a plane because of that span of time when you cannot use your electronic devices at take off and landing. (I personally think it is a dumb rule where the Kindle and Nook are concerned but I guess if they are out then others will take license too). "Death Threads" was my book. It lasted my whole trip to and from California and even after I got home - in other words it is not my most favorite book. I can't even put my finger on why. It could very possibly be someone else's favorite series of books. It had a glowing review by two of my favorite mystery writers so my suggestion is to try it. There is a pattern for a re-usable gift bag pattern at the end of the book.
"Death at Daisy Folly" by Robin Paige was a fun read. Robin Paige is really Susan Wittig Albert and her husband. They have a series of books that take place during the late Victorian era. This was a joy to read. I highly recommend it. I read this one on my way to California.
This was by far my favorite book of the week. I read it on my way to California. It is another in the China Bayles series but this one took place in a Kentucky and in a community that did re-enactments of Shaker Activities. To learn more about the Shaker life style was fascinating. The Shaker's were celibate and depended wholly on converts to keep the religion growing. There were other interesting facts as you read the book. They also prayed to 'Mother' because "Mother Anne" started the religion in the first place. I highly recommend this book as I always do my China Bayles books.
