6. I love Hillerman! And I love to read all of an author's books in order!

I've read all of Tony Hillerman's books, although it's been awhile now. I can't remember which title I picked up first in a matter of random chance, but as soon as I read that one book I set out to read all the way through his entire oeuvre in order, starting with his first book.

Great plots, wonderful characters, and the incredible landscape of the Southwest woven in throughout. They are beautiful books!

I was very sad when Hillerman died, he seemed like a truly good soul. And I will miss never being able to follow Leaphorn or Chee through another new mystery again. I will always treasure the journeys those books took me on.
