[quote=Anonymous]Ok I know you said no series books, but these books can be read as singletons. I love the Maisie Dobbs series, about a private investigator/psychologist in England between WWI and WWII. It's easy, slow, patient, and in every book, the author explores an area (e.g. mapmaking, gypsies) so you learn something. It's interesting and calming at the same time. If you do decide to read the series, it's also interesting to see how Maisie evolves over time, and the country evolves, moving away from WWI into a lull and slowly marching forward to the precipice of WWII. But no gore, no--nothing to upset you, OP. It's a murder mystery series but the dead is dead when you start out, nothing horrible.[/quote]
