need new ebooks

ive recently finished all my ebooks, wondering if anyone can recommend a few that might be worth a read! i enjoy murder mysteries mostly, but am open to try others such as horrors or dramas.

Well, without knowing what you've read let me suggest a few series

Brother Cadfael series by Ellis Peters
Gideon Oliver series by Aaron Elkins
Almost all of Agatha Christie, but especially The Murder of Roger Ackroyd (but I can't believe you haven't already read it if you like murder mysteries)
The Lord Peter Whimsey series by Dorothy L. Sayers

If you've read all of those, I'll suggest some more.

I subscribe to Bookbub, which sends me a daily email telling me what books are discounted for the day. I also follow the various discount/bargain threads here on the MobileRead forums... even if you just go with the free ones, you'll find plenty to read (unless you are very picky).

There is a mystery series I really like about an 11-year-old girl. The first one is called The Sweetness at the Bottom of the Pie. Fun books.

Ah, Flavia de Luce. Excellent series -- and NOT a kid's book.

I like the Genevieve Lenard series by Estelle Ryan. It's up to 8 books now -- I've read the first 3. The first in the series, The Gauguin Connection is a free Kindle book at Amazon US and perhaps at other Amazon sites.
