Here is one of my current favorite authors:
Single dad raising his emotionally disturbed daughter after his wife passed away in a car crash.
(Ok....I admit, I DON'T have much in common with this guy-except I have a daughter-no, wait, I have two, & a son........& well, I guess I give up on trying to find parallels between his life & mine, but it's still a great series!)
What do you read for pleasure?

I too have gotten back into mysteries. I started the Alphabet Mysteries a couple of weeks ago and am thoroughly enjoying them.
Tell me about that series, Tina. I need more good reading fodder!!
Steve and I have been collecting Nancy Dreww and Hardy Boys at book sales this last year.
We are having fun reading through them, LOL!
And our nephews and niece, who prefer reeading to playing, are quite thankful to us as well.
I need to start finding Bobbsey Twins books as well.
Have you ever read Brian Jacques books, The Redwall series?
If you liked Watership Down, you will !LOVE! these books.
I am certain Dave would really dig them as well.
