10 NEW MYSTERY BOOKS YOU MIGHT’VE MISSED IN 2020
Community Jan 19, 2021

On that particular list, there is one book that I bought and one that I want to get when it comes out in paperback.

I think my daughter has a couple of the books on the list. I've got a pile of books I borrowed from her recently.

While we're on the subject of bookplates, this looks like a fun read - it's the third in a series:

I love that series, so I've read that book!

Suzanne Brockmann and Brenda Novak, who write romantic suspense, have both done book signings where they mailed autographs to fans. Those are just two who come to mind.

I know some authors are signing bookmarks and bookplates and mailing them to fans on request since so few of them are doing book signings during the pandemic.

I had received a bookplate from Archer Mayor and now Vicki Delany. Add in the sort of private signing I had with Edith Maxwell and at least I'm having some sort of contact with the people who write the books I love to read.

In author Vicki Delany's most recent newsletter, she mentioned sending bookplates and bookmarks to anyone who requested them. I sent off my request and just the other day I got an envelope in the mail with the signed bookplate and a few bookmarks to share with my fellow book fans and eventually some of the mystery book club members if we ever get back to having meetings.
