Yes, I would put the Otto Penzler books in parentheses next to the title since
it is that way on Amazon. It may or may not be the start of a new series, so I
wouldn't put a number. The synopses, short and long, will tell people what it's
about,i.e., what age group.
Are you the one who adds the age group to the book? It's so helpful to me. As
you know, I've been doing that, and when a lot of books are added, like today,
it's time consuming. Fortunately, I'm familiar with children's and juvenile
and young adult authors, and sort of sense from titles what might be in one of
those categories, though I have been wrong on occasion--but looking them up
takes time. I've finally gotten smart, though, and made a list of the various
series so now all I have to do is look at my list. If you are the one who has
been adding that info, as I say, it certainly has been helpful.
A Dish Taken Cold sounds very interesting, and I'm going to request it soon. I
love her Pitt series; I haven't read the Monk books because I hear they're
darker and deal with a different social class. I love reading about the upper
classes. smile. I also haven't read her WWI series--or is it WWII--I didn't
realize until someone told me recently that they are mysteries; I thought they
were just stories. But I prefer books set further back in time, and A Dish
Taken Cold, set during the French Revolutionary period, sounds interesting to
me. And she is such a good writer.
