Book Suggestion:  Still Life by Louise Penny

 

When you discover a favorite author, it is fun to read all of the books by this writer. Still Life (2005) by Louise Penny was her first novel and this book served as the introduction of the now famous character Chief Inspector Armand Gamache. If you enjoy murder mysteries, this is a series you will enjoy.

There are many novels in the Chief Inspector Gamache series. The more recent book, How The Light Gets In, is outstanding!  Click on this link for a list of books by Louise Penny.

One of my personal goals is to read a minimum of one novel each week for pleasure.

Roy,

Like you, I love her writing and have read every book.  She really knows how to create the characters in a way that you would recognize them if they were alive. A
