desertvixenContempt by Catherine Crier is a good book dealing with the religious right and their moves towards the judicial system in this country. Some of the major points it deals with are Roy Moore (the Alabama judge who had the dispute over the display of the Ten Commandments) and the Terry Schiavo case.
Daughter of the Game by Tracy Grant was an interesting Regency, if a bit dark. The major plot twist is pretty well telegraphed by the title of the book, although there are some along the way that definitely come out of nowhere. I am going to read the second one.
Cooking Around The World 8-in-1 is one I've had my eye on, and found on a discount rack.
The Cater Street Hangman by Anne Perry, is the first of the Thomas and Charlotte Pitt novels. It's a pretty decent mystery (I had the killer narrowed down to two people) although the romance in it is very abbrieviated, although fittingly Victorian. I was not aware that she started this series the same year I was born. Other books in the series have been purchased.
There was also a scattering of Nancy Drew and Hardy Boys - I was trying to read through what I had purchased so far.
