I don&#8217;t think that I have written about the fact that my daughter is not a Cozy Mystery book enthusiast. She was an Aerospace Engineering student (until her graduation this past May) and most of her reading was very technical.

My daughter has been home for the summer and has had a lot of time for\u00a0reading. She started the series quite a bit later than I did.
