Dear Anne, I am writing to tell you how wonderful it is to have a blog full of book recommendations that never let me down. Keep up the good work. Sincerely, KC Maley While not as eloquent, I suppose that was inspired by Virginia Evans’ debut novel, The Correspondent; a masterfully executed, emotionally devastating, and […]
I needed to figure out a way to start reading series where I am not current or the series is finished but haven’t read them yet. So it’s a way to commit myself to read my backlist, particularly series. Another police procedural series is the Rizzoli & Isles I want to read. I […]

This is the fifth book in the D.D. Warren series and the first in a spinoff series about Tessa Leoni. With this book, I found on Goodreads there’s actually “the Gardner Universe” which consists of three series that all overlap a bit. It includes the D.D.

This is another Detective D.D. Warren story. So far, I would say that you can read each story without having read the previous books in the series. They all seem to stand on their own pretty well. Each story follows a case. This case is about the Harrington family. They are all found murdered, the […]
I’ve really been getting into these D.D. Warren books. I started off reading the books while on vacation this summer.

This is the second book that I’ve read from Chuck Wendig. I really enjoyed the first book, The Book of Accidents. And I saw a lot of talk about this book when it first came out. So, I decided I needed to give it a try. I’m really glad I did, because I had a […]
A True Story of Survival and Peril on the Edge of a Warming World I didn’t know this book was coming out until I saw it on the list of audiobooks for possible review. Since I live near Columbus and I’m a member of The Columbus Zoo and Aquarium, I’ve followed the story of polar […]
A dead body, an empty cabin, a mysterious girl, a lone rider, and a gang after a treasure make for a very exciting western adventure. I was looking forward to a tale told alternating between a sixteen year old boy with lots of grit and a hard man with cold gray eyes from two talented […]
I really loved this! It has typical fantasy world where women have almost no choices. Their primary worth is to bear an heir for men in the patriarchal society. Men control the magic. Men can also choose to send women to a whorehouse for the “unwanted.” This includes wives who can’t have children, or if […]
