I always enjoy Allison Brennan and was excited to start this new Angelhart Investigation series. I wasn’t able to read the prequel before this first book, but the author’s newsletter assured me that would be fine. I will read it if it ever comes up in my library hold. You’ll Never Find Me has the […]
I LOVE the Frankie Elkin series. Lisa Gardner has long been an author I have enjoyed and I am thrilled with this new series. Here’s what I had to say in earlier reviews which gives you a foundation about Frankie: … Frankie is a recovering alcoholic with no special skills beyond tenacity and the fortitude to […]

Read It, Rate It and Record A short review to update challenges Jonetta brought this one to my attention and I was happy to get it at the library. The set up is a bit like And Then There Were None by Agatha Christie but the story itself goes its own way. A cast […]

I have read all three series by J.A. Jance for a long time. This Joanna Brady series, is now to 18 books. Field of Bones was a complete joy. There is a wealth of plot layers here with Joanna’s reelection campaign, the birth of her third child, Butch’s book tour, her maternity leave, and a […]
Some of my reading this year is authors who will be at Nola Storycon and some series catch up. Lara Adrian will be at the con and I’ve barely read into her series. I read the previous book but don’t really remember it at all. This feels like a very typical paranormal romance. […]
