“I love Michael Connelly’s books. ...It’s important, and fun, to read them in order.”

He is REALLY GOOD. But I did screw up, and I have NOT read them in order.

That hasn’t really bothered me too much, one thing I like about “murder books” as I call them, is that I don’t remember them so I can read them over and over.

I guess I need to hunt down a list of his Harry Bosch books at least, and fill in the gaps.

I also long for the day where I can take all the many, many Nero Wolfe books and read them in order. It will be amazing to watch life changing before my eyes.

Wow, I’ve found a soul mate!

Nero and Archie have been pals of mine for decades. I have a shelf of tattered paperbacks — not all of the novels, but many.

And I share with you the rather delightful ability to forget and enjoy all over again, probably one of the few benefits of advancing age!

If you like Connelly, you’ll probably also love Ian Rankin’s novels featuring Edinburgh detective John Rebus, a Scottish clone of Harry Bosch. Again, an excellent writer, but do read them in order.
