Any interest in the Kinsey Millhone alphabet series by Sue Grafton?

January 2, 2019 1:28 PM

As stated in the 2017 MetaFilter post, Sue Grafton was "a prolific author of detective novels known for an alphabetically titled series that began in 1982 with ‘A Is for Alibi’…” Her Kinsey Millhone books are quick, delightful and great fun to read. Would anybody be interested in finishing the alphabet with me?

I started the series last year as part of my Goodreads push to read 24 books in 2018. I made it to N is for Noose and met my goal by supplementing with other reading. I'd like to get a jump on this years goal and finish the alphabet (at Y of course). Not sure how a post works for a series of books, but if there's interest, let's figure something out. Also happy to revisit A–M in some fashion.

I'm interested. How much interest is required to move forward? Are two people enough to read a series of twenty-plus novels, even fast-paced ones like these?

My likeliest method of reading would involve the Seattle Public Library and Metro commuting. It would likely take me a week or two to read any given letter-titled book.

I got a copy of Grafton's story collection Kinsey and Me.

Hi! Just noticed there were comments here, sorry! Yeah, I’d be happy to go at any pace, not fussed about it.
