Picture of the Day for 9/26/2011. I was browsing through the bookstore last Friday looking for a novel to read on my flight home from Florida the following day. I knew I had found my selection based on the opening line: "Finally, after almost two hundred years, my hometown had its first bona fide hooker." Call me sophomoric, but I was amused. The heroine is a 52-year-old smart-ass Mennonite woman (yes- that just happened; I used the word "smart-ass" and "Mennonite" in the same sentence) who has a 4-year-old son along with a Jewish husband and runs an family-owned inn in Pennsylvania Dutch country. I have to say it's one of the oddest premises for a mystery novel I've encountered, but I enjoyed the book.
