Is this a good book and is she a good author? Now that Mary Higgins Clark has passed away I need to find another good author. I have Stuart Woods and John Grisham but I need to replace MHC with another good one. Thanks!

You know how some people have a professional organizer come in and organize their closets? Well I need someone to organize my time. I vow to read for an hour a day, and then get sidetracked. I'll admit I don't deal with my biggest problem - a lady who calls and talks non-stop for hours. Once my DH retires, I know it can't go on. I like the author you've selected @joannecha . I listened to her books on CD when I worked.

@LuvmyLab Lisa Gardner is one of my favorite authors. I think,she has different series. I always read them in order.

She has different series, so I would recommend that you pop on her web site or Goodreads, or somewhere that you can read a description of those series. Or maybe just pick up one from the library to see if she's a good fit for you. Good luck in your search for a new favorite author. That's always a fun road to travel.

I just keep thinking about grease from the chips getting on the pages of a hardbound book.
