I’ve enjoyed every book I’ve read by Lynn Painter. They always seem to have very fun banter and humor.  So I always want to read her books. The setting for this seems to be Omaha Nebraska with a Warren Buffet type character. Maid for Each Other is a class difference book, not that they really […]

I always enjoy a Ruth Ware mystery thriller.  The Woman in Suite 11 is a follow up on the Lo Blacklock character 10 years after the time in The Woman in Cabin 10.  It’s better if you have read the first book but not absolutely necessary. In the interim, Lo has married Judah and they […]

🎧 The Undercutting of Rosie and Adam by Megan Bannen @MeganBannen #JimFrangione #KacieRogers ‪@orbitbooks.bsky.social‬ #LoveAudiobooks @orbitbooks @RobinBridgeFour

I believe this is the last book in the Hart and Mercy  series and it sticks the landing solidly.  The Undercutting of Rosie and Adam begins about ten years after the events of the prior books.  Duckers finally found a partner who will stick with him in Rosie, well at least most of the time when […]

Things continue to develop in the Midsolar Murders series.    The characters and world had a good foundation laid in the first book Station Eternity which is where Mallory and Xan and several aliens live. The station itself is sentient, bonded now with Mrs. Brown. In the next installment, we learn about the Sundry and […]

🎧 A Happy Marriage by AR Torre @alessandratorre4 #PaigeReisenfeld #CharlotteLobdell #JonathonDavis #BrillianceAudio #JIAM #LoveAudiobooks #KindleUnlimited🎧

A Happy Marriage sounded like an interesting setup with Dinah, a detective and her husband Joe, a psychiatrist. With the title, I thought it would have aspects of how they make their careers work and still keep a close relationship.  They do that and are successful in their careers but that’s not this story. We […]

Writing Mr. Wrong by Kelley Armstrong @kelleyarmstrong.bsky.social @grandcentralpub.bsky.social @KelleyArmstrong @readforeverpub

Writing Mr. Wrong by Kelley Armstrong @kelleyarmstrong.bsky.social  @grandcentralpub.bsky.social @KelleyArmstrong @readforeverpub

Romantic comedy may not be the normal genre for Kelley Armstrong but she does her usual amazing work. Writing Mr. Wrong is classed as a stand alone, but it does have connections to her other book in this genre Finding Mr. Write.  Chris from the first book has a sister Gemma who is the lead […]

🎧 The Love Fix by Jill Shalvis ‪@jillshalvis.bsky.social‬ @andi_arndt ‪‪@avonbooks.bsky.social ‬@HarperAudio #LOVEAUDIOBOOKS #JIAM @JillShalvis @avonbooks

The Love Fix is another tale of a dysfunctional immediate family  leading to closed off young adults who struggle to accept relationships until they build a found family. Jill Shalvis is my favorite when it comes to heart and humor. Topics which are uncomfortable and tragic are worked through with care and compassion. The characters […]
