I've come across Rhys Bowen's name over the past few years and am familiar with the fact that she writes three different popular mystery series. Rhys Bowen has also written a stand-alone historical novel titled, In Farleigh Field, which is set in England during World War II.
I have yet to read any of her novels, but that will soon be remedied in the near future as I discovered in August 2017 that Rhys Bowen would be coming to a branch of our public library.
Last night, I attended Rhys Bowen's author presentation at our local public library. I am so thrilled that I attended this event as Rhys Bowen is a delightful speaker with a lovely English accent. Rhys Bowen gave a lively talk about her novels, her writing, and various characters she has created throughout the years. Rhys Bowen was also humorous. I felt like she was one of the more entertaining and engaging author speakers I've heard speak before an audience.
Quite a nice sized group of readers attended the Rhys Bowen author presentation and book signing. Many of them asked a lot of interesting questions during the Q & A segment.
This was the first time I've attended an author event and signing at a public library, which made for a fun time. I came away with two signed books by Rhys Bowen - Murphy's Law: The First Molly Murphy Mystery and In Farleigh Field.
Until my next post, happy reading!
What a cool looking library you have! I look forward to reading reviews of the books you got. I have not read anything by Rhys Bowen either.
ReplyDeleteYes, our local public library is beautiful. Our public library had a grand reopening on April 15, 2017. It had been closed for remodeling for 20 months, which seemed like forever!! Apparently, $6.48 million dollars was spent on renovating our public library, so I am beyond thrilled that it has a more modern and updated look to it.
