Rating: Summary: A mystery fan's must-have resource Review: I have completely lost count of how many wonderful new authors I have discovered through this reference book. I love the fact that the authors don't give their opinions of each writer, instead leaving the reader to decide for themselves what themes and styles appeal to her. Very helpful, too, that they give the order of the first few of the authors works. A very worthwhile purchase!
Rating: Summary: Excellent Resource! Review: Very helpful reference if you want to branch out and try new mystery authors (women). Books are cross-indexed by locale of story, type of sleuth, etc. (E.G. if you like mysteries that take place, say, in the South, or if you like lawyer-sleuths, you can check the indexes in the back.)Also, the blurb on your favorite author gives suggestions as to similar authors you may not have read yet. Superb if you're not surrounded by friends who don't like mysteries who can recommend their faves.
