MY TWO CENTS: I read and reviewed (click to view) four of these titles on tour and they were truly highlights of the year. I thought Eliza Maxwell had knocked it out of the park on The Unremembered Girl, but then she blew me away with The Grave Tender! (And now I am anxiously awaiting The Widow's Watcher, coming on tour in May!) ALSO coming on tour, Alexia Gordon's next book in the Gethsemene Brown series, Killing in C Sharp. I absolutely loved the smart, quirky ghost-seeing, musically inclined, quirky Gethsemane when I met her in Death in D Minor! I need to go back and read book one. Hidden Sea was AMAZING, and the setting where I read it (on the beach!) didn't hurt either. I really enjoyed the leap from North Shore, the book before, to this one fifty years later and still following the same family. I've been gushing about Bonnie and Clyde: Resurrection Road pretty much every day of the Awards -- have you noticed the book keeps coming up? There's a reason! I haven't read Bombshell (yet), but I have read books 5-7 (Hell to Pay on tour) and cannot wait to keep going in the What Doesn't Kill You series! And yes, yes -- I have GOT to read DiAnn Mills since all the LSBBT bloggers highly recommend her books. NOT ENOUGH TIME IN THE DAY to read all these fab books.

MY TWO CENTS: I have gushed about Melissa Lenhardt's Sawbones Trilogy enough, but I was super excited to see Comfort Plans show up on this award. Kimberly Fish nailed the setting and characters in this book. I miss them both! Sadly, I didn't get to read any of these other books...you know where they are (the ever-toppling TBR pile).

MY TWO CENTS: Looks like I have identified a gap in my reading spectrum. Yes, I read B&C:RR (have I mentioned that I loved it? no?), but I missed all three of these others, all of which really had our bloggers talking. Yes, yes -- on the TBR list.
