"Gentlemen Prefer Succubi (Succubus Diaries, #1)" by Jill Myles

Mind candy, quick and quirky.

"The Anodyne Necklace (Richard Jury, #3)" by Martha Grimes

As always this was an intricate layering of mystery and social commentary. Grimes has invested a lot into her Jury and Plant and it comes through as you're reading these books. At times funny and at other times stark, these never get old. I have read several of these and still look forward to reading more of them. The stories are named after old English pubs but they are anything but old.

In this mystery find out what the tenacity of Evita in the Underground has to do with crayon scribbled poison letters in the English countryside.

"It's Not Me, It's You: Subjective Recollections from a Terminally Optimistic, Chronically Sarcastic and Occasionally Inebriated Woman" by Stefanie Wilder-Taylor

Collection of essays by the author revolving around certain episodes in her life. Her sense of humor is pretty decent and the stories related tend to leave you laughing while silently horrified. It was a quick read and left me thinking I might pick up another of her books if chance were to offer but I'm not running out the door for it. Having said that, I wouldn't mind popping a couple of beers with her.
