The purpose of Thrifty Thursday is to read a book which was free (at some point). Audio freebie from Simon & Schuster on December 28, 2021 (special email from publisher to pick an audio of my choice ) Overall rating 3.84 with 4,943 ratings and 629 reviews It had been awhile since I […]
I wasn’t sure what to expect as to whether The Book of Cold Cases would be a bunch of short stories but it is all one cohesive read. A few different cases were connected together than was previously known. The detailed work was done by Shea, with the help of a detective Michael, who is […]
I’ve been reading the Alice Vega series from the beginning. I love the quirky Alice, who is resourceful and smart. Her work puts her up against some tough people and tends to be dangerous. You wouldn’t think this would be true with many of her cases being for missing persons. However, to solve the disappearances […]
I am really enjoying the Charles Jenkins series, which begins with The Eighth Sister, which was a heart-stopping fire hose of action and life-or-death danger. Charles Jenkins is unusual in that he is older, in his 60s, and left the CIA 40 years ago. He has a young son and a newborn daughter. I think […]
I was in the mood for a good suspense/thriller story and there are several Karin Slaughter stand alone stories I haven’t tackled yet, so I just grabbed one at random. I very rarely read the blurb on a book. I like going in blind. So it was a bit of a shock that this story […]
I have loved every one of the Rockton series. I would not try to read this as a standalone. The whole series is amazing and I highly recommend them. I listened to the whole series on audio, as I love Therese Plummer. Rockton is built on all kinds of secrets. The council has not shared […]
I really loved Deadly Silence from the Detective Jane Phillips series which I reviewed on audio. Somehow I lost track of the series and no others, sadly, have been released on audio. There are now 6 books. I caught up on Kindle Unlimited and have the latest here for review. We see things through Jane […]
I absolutely have loved this Orphan X series. I LOVE Evan and his growth throughout the series. He is a support for the people at Castle Heights, especially Mia and Peter, and a parental figure, at least a caretaker for Joey. I hoped once he got his informal presidential “pardon,” he could go into security […]
Wow. I really enjoyed Fool Her Once. All along, I thought I had ideas and knew what would happen and kind of kept waiting for it and then no, it was something else. These characters were all flawed and sometimes not very likeable. If you don’t like cheating, you won’t like it here. Jenna is […]
I have read another series by this author and somehow didn’t pay very much attention to the blurb, thinking this would be a police procedural. The Village is much more a psychological suspense. Naomi, as a crime journalist, wants to know what happened to a family and buys the home where they disappeared. Her new […]
