New to Me Authors for January to March of 2015

The first quarter of 2015 has gone by swiftly. During the three months I read books by four new fiction authors and two non-fiction authors.

The books and authors of fiction are:

     1.) Last of the Independents by Sam Wiebe;

     2.) Or the Bull Kills You by Jason Webster;

     3.) The Hills is Lonely by Lillian Beckwith; and,

     4.) The Blackhouse and The Lewis Man by Peter May.

The non-fiction books and authors are:

     1.) Tough Crimes edited by C.D. Evans and Lorene Shyba; and,

     2.) 41 by George W. Bush.

As I looked at the books I found myself in a quandary. I greatly enjoyed reading all of the books. Thus I am going to indulge myself in a blogger's  prerogative and decline to pick a favourite from either the fiction or non-fiction books.

I recommend all of the above books.

I further recommend readers to go on over to Kerrie Smith's excellent blog, Mysteries in Paradise, where she hosts this meme.

  1. I'm so glad you had a good reading quarter, Bill; that's the best kind :-). And I do very much want to read Tough Crimes. It sounds like such an interesting read.

  2. Bill, I'm only familiar with Peter May and I have been meaning to read his books. I'm behind in my own reading of nonfiction books.

  3. Prashant: Thanks for the comment. I think you would find 41 an interesting book. It has a significant look at George Bush Sr.'s involvement with American foreign relations.
