I read cozy and historical mysteries, a bit of Paranormal/UF, and to mix it up, I read science and gardening books on occasion.
This day is almost - just short of - impossible for me. I've read roughly 1300 mysteries over the years and I'm supposed to pick my favorite of all time?!?
Well, ok, once I went back to basics the answer was actually pretty easy: Sherlock Holmes. My favorite: The Hound of the Baskervilles
I just have to think about the damp, dank moors of Dartmouth and my hair starts to frizz and I'm reaching for a blanket. And the plot? Well, the plot is just diabolical.
