I can also recommend Deanna Raybourn. I like her Lady Julia Gray series, especially the first three or four - I thought the quality dropped off a bit in the later books. And I've read the first of her new series - A Curious Beginning - which I liked, but not as much as the other series. And she has several set in the 1920s which are good, but not among my favorites.
Who among us can ignore the allure of really funny math puns?

Literary Buffistas 3: Don't Parse the Blurb, Dear.
There's more to life than watching Buffy the Vampire Slayer! No. Really, there is! Honestly! Here's a place for Buffistas to come and discuss what it is they're reading, their favorite authors and poets. "Geez. Crack a book sometime."

I just got curious beginning from the library after being on the hold list forever ...only to realize I somehow have already read it. Oops. I do like the Lady Grey series a lot

Well, the second one is out ... maybe you can get on that list (and read it before a third book comes out).

Would like to join the group, but not enough spoons. I have a good spoon supply, but my burn rate is very high.

Kat, did you just rate a bunch of Lisa Kleypas books on Goodreads, or have I friended the wrong Kat?
I am on a do nothing but read mindless trash. So yes. that's me. I've read about 10 of her books in the past two weeks.

Okay, someone convince me to not abandon Outlander.

Because books.
Where are you in it, Kat? It took me a little while to get into it, but once I did, I couldn't stop. And the next two books are even better.

Our wings are not tired.
It has been so long since I read the series that I can't remember the first book, but I know as I got into it I was anxious to start the next volume as soon I finished each one.

I had seen season 1 of the tv show before reading 1. I read it and #2 pretty fast, took me a while to get into #3 which I read over like 9 months, just finished.
