16. Currrently reading "The Gator Did It" from the Southern Beach Mystery Series byKay Dewe Shostak

This is the 5th book in the series

Football is a whole other thing in the South, Midwestern transplant Jewel Mantelle discovers, and on Sophia Island, they love the Gators. Jewel would be fine with that if her friends only meant the University of Florida football team, but they also seem to love the critters skulking around in the ditches and creeks running through their tiny beach town. At her first ever football party she finds herself front and center for the spectacle of the eccentric Bell Jackson calling the gators behind his huge mansion—and it gives her the creeps.

But finding out those very same gators didn’t hesitate to take a bite of Mr. Jackson when he fell off his balcony and landed in their domain is even creepier.......

I missed 2 weeks but since the last time I posted here I have read:
The Sanhedrin Chronicles about a group of Jewish men with superpowers. Lots of paranormal stuff and also fun
College student and certified nerd Arthur Rose has issues: he's estranged from his Jewish faith, he needs a recommendation for grad school, and getting back with his ex, Lynn, is going to take more than an apology and chocolate. He's trying to balance it all when he starts seeing shapes in the dark. ...What follows is a tale ripped out of Arthur's wildest fantasies: to protect the world from evil, he must join a secret order of Jewish demon-hunters that have spanned millennia. He'll have to master Hebrew magic, uncover the secrets of his past, and embrace his heritage. In so doing, he won't just reclaim his faith, but becomes SANHEDRIN

Ruddy Gore another in the Miss Fischer series. I love these books!

Maybe You Should Talk to Someone : A Therapist, Her Therapist and our lives revealed Lori Gottlieb. This was a Book CLub choice and I really thought I was going to hate it; I thought it would be very dry and boring but it was written like a novel.

Primal Creatures by Eric WIlder. Another in his paranormal series set in New Orleans The French Quarter Mysteries
It features a mysterious "monastery", a hurricaine, Cajun werewolves , a little bit of voo doo and a lot of NewOrleans atmosphere. # 3 in the series.
