I’ve enjoyed every book in the Duncan Kincaid & Gemma James series. I’ve read all 19 books and love the development of the characters including their families, friends and co-workers. The mysteries, usually murder, are also a bit complex. It’s just such a pleasure and comfort I feel as I read. The Kincaid family is […]

This is a collection of short stories by Joe Hill. I’ve read him before, but this is my first collection of shorts by him. I will admit I did pick this after seeing a trailer for The Black Phone. I didn’t know much about this collection, but I’ve read Joe Hill in the […]
I wanted Marple: Twelve New Mysteries as soon as I heard of this anthology of short stories about Jane Marple. It’s kind of like Jane Marple fanfiction by some well-known authors in the genre. I was happy to read stories by some favorite authors and also to try some authors, some of them I’ve wanted […]

Jane is definitely in the first camp, having experienced […]

I love this Will Trent series and I’m so happy I was able to listen to many of the previous books with the new audio recordings, all narrated by Kathleen Early. Even though I read The Silent Wife, I heard her voice. In any format, it is an excellent story. Now on the 10th book […]
As this was an Olympic year, I was eager to pick up a historical fiction centered around the Summer Olympics. I knew nothing about any of the women whose stories were told which I thought made Fast Girls a real gem of a find. The book starts out in 1928, when women’s track and field […]
