I’ve spent the last month focusing on WW2 fiction and drama in honor of D-day on June 6th. I’ve shed a lot of tears, stared vacantly at the wall at the end of a particularly brutal story, and sighed with satisfaction at an HEA I had prepared myself not to get. But one theme runs […]
I was very happy to continue the Kat Holloway mysteries. Each mystery is standalone though there is an ongoing series arc for Kat’s personal and relationship developments. I know and love many of the characters and I understand the world even if I don’t like some of it. Women of any class have few rights […]
I have read all three series by J.A. Jance for a long time. I always recommend to read series in order. This Ali Reynolds series is probably the least realistic of the three, and is not based on law enforcement personnel like the other series. I still love it. Ali was a news anchor who […]

I’ve enjoyed the mysteries and the development of many characters in this Ruth Galloway series. I like the main character Ruth. She’s smart and interesting; she’s done really well with Kate even though she has little support from family, friends or Nelson. I would read the series in order to understand many different characters. Cathbad […]
I nearly missed the next release in The Daughter of Sherlock Holmes Mysteries series. I really enjoy all these Sherlock Holmes style investigations and the setting in England. Plus the series is narrated by STEVE WEST. After many years, Jack the Ripper is active again in Whitechapel. A special young women, a talented and beautiful […]
I was excited to read Six Weeks to Live with its family drama and mystery. The mother, Jennifer, quickly finds some irregularities in her tests and realizes she may have been poisoned. She spends lots of time figuring out who it might have been and how they might have done it. It was easy to […]
First, the title caught my attention, then that eye-catching cover, and then the blurb sealed the deal. I was all set to have a good time with the start of a new cozy mystery series. Diversity, family, food, and murder- what more could I ask? Arsenic and Adobo introduces the main character, Lila Macapagal, a […]
