I was sifting through our bookcases the other day, and lo and behold I found the next 2 books in the Sue Grafton series, 'H' and 'I'!

That said, I am just a few pages shy of having finished 'H' this morning on the commute in, and I fully expect I'll be ( Read more... ) -
Books, 2008 meme update
So, I posted last week Saturday about how the Sue Grafton series were quick reads. Apparently, I wasn't kidding. When I posted that, I had just finished B is for Burglar, and was about halfway through C is for Corpse.
