I saw this Jimmy Vega Mystery series first in a review on Carole’s Random Life in Books blog and had to start it. I was thrilled to keep listening on my own motivation. I have been excited to get each book and could barely stop reading, finishing quickly. The main character, Jimmy Vega, is a […]
Juliet Marillier is a fable teller or what I like to think of as a modern-day Grimm. She weaves these very intricate stories that usually involve humans with hints of the fae and she does this very well. Shadowfell is the first book in the, already completed but new to audio, three book Shadowfell series. […]
I have enjoyed this Bishop Special Crime Unit series for a long time. Sometimes the stories feature long known members of the team and some are completely new characters. With well known characters, there is the advantage of already knowing them and having better developed characters who then further progress. With new ones, it makes […]
This is totally a women’s story. The Herd chronicles the difficulties women have in a world with men. Bright women went to Harvard, and started new companies. The Herd is an elite, co-working space for women only and to support each other. When Eleanor disappears, all her choices, past and present, start coming into focus. […]

There is also the goal of finding out who is hunting them to extinction, a mole in the covert ops family. The final book, Beautiful Vengeance is a […]

In this latest, Sebastian learns of a new murder he needs to investigate when a scared, young boy comes to tell his valet, Jules Calhoun, that his friend, Hayes, has been killed. As usual, Harris pulls me into the heart of a new story that is more than a mystery so I can hardly put […]
I wasn’t sure what to expect from this new Sunshine Vicram series from Darynda Jones. Sunshine is the new sheriff in the town where she grew up and her parents live. She has been away for about 14 years. She is an experienced law enforcement officer and I like that. Her caring and commitment to […]
May McGoldrick is a husband wife writing duo, I picked up the Highland Sword because there is another husband and wife writing duo I adore and wanted to see if they could do for me in Historical Romance, what Ilona Andrews does for me in Urban Fantasy. They fell a little short, not really their […]
I was happy to continue with the Mythos Academy Colorado series, which follows (and is a spoiler for) the related Mythos Academy series. Spartan Destiny is the final book in this trilogy. Rory provides the point of view for our story as she does for the rest of the series. Rory is a great character […]
