I recently found a new online source for finding good books to read. I am always looking for new authors and titles.) The Best Books of website has authors listing favorite books with a topic or a theme that interests them. (When I first looked at this page, I looked at the fantasy page and found The Pyramids of London, which I really loved.)

Another topic that interested me was the lists of books on social topics – social issues – because the topic of my post was mysteries with a dash of social commentary.

The above are some of my favorite books. Several I reread regularly.
