I have not always been a fan of time travel but this author has two series where it is an element and I love them.  A Rip Through Time  series is where a modern day police detective ends up 150 years earlier.  So the story is primarily set historically. I would read this story in order […]

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 […]

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 […]

Dez is an interesting character with a lot of education and skills.  He has worked for various governments as a gatekeeper.  He is educated in physics and electrical engineering, but also by life’s experiences in various spots around the world.  His irreverent attitude is tied up in his own moral code.  He sometimes has compassion. […]

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 […]

I really enjoyed the first book of this The Witch’s Compendium of Monsters series.  I seem to enjoy many Slavic mythology fantasy books.  I don’t want to repeat my review of the first book, so I’ll give you a very short recap of the world and characters. I would read these books in order. I […]

🎧 Red River Road by Anna Downes @whatannawrote @MaddyWithington @MinotaurBooks @MacmillanAudio #LoveAudiobooks

I started Red River Road on audio and just felt confused.  There are three main characters: Katy, Beth and Wyatt.  Wyatt is a child and seems a bit unconnected to the story for most of the book.  Katy and Beth seem like unreliable narrators of the story which is not one of my favorite things.  […]
