I love David Rosenfelt's Andy Carpenter series. Dog Day Afternoon is the latest release.
I love everything about it--the main character's confident, humorous voice, the fun dog connection, and how, no matter what happens, we know that Andy Carpenter is going to come out on top somehow.
I recommend this book and all of the other Andy Carpenter books in the series.

I love Beaton's Hamish Macbeth series as well as her Agatha Raisin series. Both feature fun, original characters that I love spending time with as they tackle their problems and solve their mysteries.
M. C. Beaton passed away a few years ago, but before she passed she collaborated with and mentored R. W. Green who has taken over both series. He's done a great job. Whenever I run out of new reads, I often go back and reread some books in those series.
Great reads, all of them.

Nonsense! is about one of literature’s most creepily creative authors and illustrators who was the inspiration behind a generation of creators, including Lemony Snicket, Neil Gaiman, and Tim Burton.
Instead of following the crowd, Gorey did things his own way, writing strange stories with peculiar titles like The Abandoned Sock, The Galoshes of Remorse, and The Gashlycrumb Tinies.

Edward Gorey—mysterious, brilliant, a one-of-a-kind original. Will the curious stories of Edward Gorey ever end? Nonsense.
