Sheriff Bet Rivers Mystery series by Elena Taylor @elenataylorauthor.bsky.social @crookedlanebooks.bsky.social @severnhouse.bsky.social @partnersincrimevbt.bsky.social  @elenataylorauthor

  The Sheriff Bet Rivers series is one I had been wanting to read.  I was delighted to have this opportunity. Elizabeth Rivers grew up in the small town of Collier, Washington.  Her father and his father were the sheriff here.  She left home to study law enforcement and work in Los Angeles.  She came […]

Cold Burn by AJ Landau @JonDLand @jeffayerswrites.bsky.social @minotaurbooks.bsky.social @MinotaurBooks

I loved Leave No Trace is a chilling story of terrorists employing methods and gathering insurrectionists in much as the attack on the Capital in 2021.  The leaders are demented narcissists, so really similar. We are introduced to Michael Walker who works for the national park system in their law enforcement. The other key player […]

A Fashionably French Murder by Colleen Cambridge @colleengleason.bsky.social @kensingtonbooks.bsky.social @sophiarose1816 @colleengleason @KensingtonBooks

A Fashionably French Murder by Colleen Cambridge @colleengleason.bsky.social @kensingtonbooks.bsky.social @sophiarose1816 @colleengleason @KensingtonBooks

  A fashion faux pas happens when Tabitha finds a body rather than a fabulous Haute Couture gown on her first visit to a Collection showing.  Colleen Cambridge continues to wow me with her fun blend of real life personage Julia Child, post-WWII Paris, and her entertaining fictional characters and mystery plot. A Fashionably French […]

Strangers in Time by David Baldacci @davidbaldacci.bsky.social  @grandcentralpub.bsky.social  @davidbaldacci ‏@GrandCentralPub

I have enjoyed many books by David Baldacci.  Most of them were in the mystery / thriller genre.  He has recently written a few standalones which are historical fiction.  Strangers in Time is set during World Ward II England and has three main characters who lose the people close to them. Mr. Oliver is a […]

The Dangerous Damsels series began this world with its witty, hilarious antics.  The Ornithologist’s Field Guide to Love continues the tradition in a new series in the same world, Love’s Academic. It isn’t necessary to have read the previous books as they are not mentioned at all.  Those books are so fun I wouldn’t miss […]

My current favorite genre is mysteries. I’ve always enjoyed this author and narrator so I was happy to try them in a new genre for them.   The start was a bit slow since some of the characters were over the top cliché which, honestly, I accept more easily in paranormal romance than I do in […]

Vera Wong’s Guide to Snooping on a Dead Man by Jesse Q. Sutanto @thewritinghippo @berkleypub.bsky.social  @sophiarose1816 @Berkley

San Francisco’s most adorable snoop is back and delving into the death of an online influencer who’s an off-line enigma.  Jesse Sutanto’s Vera Wong captured my heart and funny bone in the first book so I didn’t hesitate to reach for this latest. Vera Wong’s Guide to Snooping is the second book in a series.  […]
