Mary Higgins Clark is my favorite author, with a clarification. She is not the best author I have ever read books by, but she is the one I have read the most books by. They are the adult version of what "The Baby Sitter's Club" was to me in my teen years. Her books are all about the same, set in NY/NJ, and are all mysteries. They are not that predictable though and I usually can't put it down once I start. They are also quick reads for me, I'm usually done in about a day (with interruptions, obviously). Once a year, she teams up with her sister to write a Christmas mystery. I picked this one up from the library, it was from 2001 but I don't think I ever read it. I say think because sometimes I know I have read a book but can pick it up and feel like I am reading for the first time. Anyways, this was a good book. Sort of an "It's a Wonderful Life" story about a person who has been stuck in purgatory for 46 years and has to help someone on Earth in order to get into Heaven. It's a good seasonal read and I'd recommend this one or any of her others that she's written for Christmas.Next up on my list is one I said I never would read, due to its popularity among the teen set and their mothers. Yes, it's Twilight and I am honestly not sure I will get through it. But I got it from the library free of charge so I will give it a try. Stay posted :)
