He's an amazing writer. He and Ruth Rendell are my favorites.<BR/><BR/>Thanks for the compliment, but I'll admit I've often thought I won the Agatha simply because I had so many friends attending Malice. That doesn't diminish the pleasure of winning, but I'm realistic about the way these things work. I'm glad my friends liked the Sandra Parshallhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17403144248962124138noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8056815460076050228.post-80258020801992109882009-02-04T16:41:00.000-05:002009-02-04T16:41:00.000-05:00Sandy, you earned your Agatha, but I'm not convinc...Sandy, you earned your Agatha, but I'm not convinced you would have trampled your grandma to get it. :)<BR/><BR/>I just read my first novel by Thomas H Cook and I actually blogged about it at Mysterious Musings because I thought it was so great. And I think Julia SF is a major talent, so I agree with your choices, but I know too how many great books are out there, waiting for me to read them .

King, TOUCHSTONE, which I thought was a tour de force. The Agatha Best First Novel is the easy one for me this year--DEATH WILL GET YOU SOBER, of course. I have NOT emailed around prodding my friends, because it's usually considered over the BSP Elizabeth Zelvinhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13944424094949207841noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8056815460076050228.post-42320178167080675692009-02-04T09:24:00.000-05:002009-02-04T09:24:00.000-05:00My own, of course.

But I would support anything of Julia Spencer-Fleming's, because she writes so beautifully on so many levels.<BR/><BR/>I think Vicki Lane is another terrific writer--her In a Dark Season came out in June 2008.<BR/><BR/>I would be happy to lose to either one of them.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
