Professor Fitger was looking forward to a break when he learned he was 'selected' to chaperone eleven undergrads on the annual Payne Experience: Abroad to London. (Selected meaning that the prof originally scheduled is suddenly unavailable and everyone else has a good excuse (think family, holidays, etc.) and since he is single, well ....) He is a literature professor, so he expects each student to turn in a short (500 word) paragraph about everything they visit, with a longer essay at the end of the class. The students, as you will learn, are an eclectic bunch! This is not a mystery, but The English Experience, by Julie Schumacher was not a bad read. ;-)

Another book in the box from Wandering Reader was All She Wrote, a Mail Carrier Cozy Mystery, by Tonya Kappes. There is someone new in town, Courtney, who is the niece of Florence, who does many good things for the community, but is also, well, sort of a pain! Naturally Bernadette (the mail carrier) and the Front Porch Ladies (retired neighbors) are most curious. Especially after the 'wrong' person is awarded a scholarship, there is an unexpected wedding, and then Florence is found dead! What will Bernie and the Ladies discover? It looks to be the third in the series.
