As January is racing by, it felt like time for our latest reading roundup.

Given that December was spent either sick in bed with Corona (first half of the month) or visiting with family (second half), I’m stunned that I read as much as I did. Part of the reason there are so many books this time around is that a whopping four are rereads, given that was as much as my corona brain could handle. Those four are a complete series, so I’ll group them as one.

Here’s the December to mid-January list:

• A Study in Charlotte, The Last of August, The Case for Jamie, A Question of Holmes, Brittany Cavallaro

• Counterfeit, Kirstin Chen

• A Restless Truth, Freya Marske

• The House in the Pines, Ana Reyes (discussed with the author on the OM podcast)

• The Hunter, Jennifer Herrera (interview on the OM podcast coming soon)
