Still Life by Louise Penny

2017: #17 – Kane and Abel (Jeffrey Archer)

April 22, 2018 0 Comment

2006: #10 – K is for Killer (Sue Grafton)

February 6, 2006January 15, 2021

Book #10 was K is for Killer, the 11th book in Sue Grafton’s Alphabet/Kinsey Millhone series. I still think she spends too much time describing settings. If I keep this pace up, I’ll hit 100 books in no time! Book count: 10 Pages in book: 307 Page count: 4,479 Words in book: 96,644 Word count:1,098,023 1,000,000 words surpassed — 2/2/06
