I'll finish up #9 of the Noodle Shop series...there is a #`0, but it just came out, so I don't have it yet. THEN I get to start the Bubba Snoddy series. I'm really ready to laugh. Chien's books are very good mysteries, and quite cozy, but almost humorless. There are moments here and there, but... I MISS BEING IN SINFUL! I may have to reread the whole thing again! Jana has broken her arm very badly, so it will be sometime next year before the next Miss Fortune book comes out. Darn it.
