57. Got any suggestions?
I grew up reading science fiction--hunting down used paperbacks in dusty 2nd hand bookstores--before there were college courses in the stuff. So I'm not "hoity toity." Still read a bit of science fiction--plus any fantasy that is NOT a 3rd rate Tolkien ripoff.

I've just finished all paperbacks available in two mystery series: Jane Austen, Detective & Mary Russell (partner to her husband, Sherlock Holmes).

My reading includes a fair amount of serious non-fiction, but I need paperbacks to carry on the bus--lighter but not brain-dead. I bogged down half-way through the Gabaldon books but may try again.

Any ideas?
