I am a horrible book blogger. The last review I wrote was in March 2018 and by now I should have 20+ posts up. I've hit upon a plan to overcome this slough by tackling four shelves of my book reading backlog. Actually, there are more than four, but baby steps. You see, I have been collecting books in series and waiting until I had the series complete up to the most recent before starting to read any. Years have passed. Thanks to Amazon, I have filled in a few gaps to ensure I can read the first five books in each of the selected series. I figure five books will be enough to tell me if I want to keep reading. Here, in author order, are the series I have chosen:
Himes, Chester —Harlem Detective Series
First book — A Rage in Harlem (1957
James, Bill — Harpur and Iles Series
First book — You'd Better Believe It (1985)
Kerr, Philip — Bernie Gunther Series
First book — March Violets (1989)
Lackberg, Camilla — Flack and Hedström Series
First book — The Ice Princess (2002)
Nesbo, Jo — Harry Hole Series
First book —The Bat (1997)
Pryce, Malcolm — Louie Knight, Aberystwyth Noir Series
First book — Aberystwyth Mon Amour (2001)
When I publish this post I will pick up A Rage in Harlem and launch my plan and hope to see at least ten posts published by the end of the year.
