Tammy @ Books, Bones & Buffy featured this on one of her future fiction type posts and the concept appealed to me. It’s exactly the kind of themes I love – space scfi, murder mystery, detectives, and technology. Murder by Memory is also a very quick read I did in one go. We meet Dorothy […]
The Antonia Scott series is about Antonia and her partner, Jon. They are sort of government agency law enforcement but a special program called Red Queen. The setting is Europe and they are based in Spain. Jon is gay; he has had some issues with trying too hard to get the bad guys. Rather than […]
I love this Rockton series, now Haven’s Rock series which is a spin-off as well as a direct continuation of the previous series. I personally would start with the previous series because of the background and character development but also because it is amazing!  Haven’s Rock is a new town with Casey and Eric along […]
I LOVE the Orphan X series. I recommend reading from the beginning, in order, for the character and world developments.  Evan has grown and become more personable throughout the series. He grapples with his Orphan rules and the feelings for people. I worry for him in every book. Evan has some real issues with […]

When Dana Schwartz’s novel Anatomy ended with some unresolved story arcs, it was an easy decision, well, more like a necessity, to pick up Immortality: A Love Story, the second and final installment in The Anatomy Duology. I expected a continuation of Hazel’s journey towards being a surgeon mixed with a gothic mystery set in […]
I discovered this author earlier this year when I was looking for lawyer series. I LOVED his Robin Lockwood series and hope to continue reading it soon. When I saw this new standalone, I was thrilled to read it. The main character Charlie Webb is a regular, good guy. He’s not too smart or too […]
