The Detective Shona Oliver series does a nice job with its police procedural aspects. Shona Oliver is a Detective Inspector. I would read these books in order for the personal growth and relationships. I like the setting in Scotland, the mysteries and cases, the police procedures, and less, Shona’s personal situations. Shona struggles with her […]
I noticed Nobody’s Fool was the second in the Sami Kierce series so I decided to read Fool Me Once first. I found this very confusing since there was no character called Sami Kierce. There was a Roger Kierce and he was a minor, background sort of character. So I was surprised now to read […]
If there is anyone who can take a ridiculous idea like the moon turning to cheese and make it into a book that was funny, absurd, silly, heartwarming and thought provoking it is John Scalzi. When the Moon Hits Your Eye is a collections of stories set in a world where the moon has turned […]
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 […]
Back in the day, divorce was hard to come by and was very much frowned upon, but then Reno, Nevada shortened the residency requirement law to six weeks and a new niche Depression Era industry was born.

Queen of Shadow and Ruin is the conclusion to the Nightfire Quartet focused in Indian/Asian mythology. Zarya is prophesized to be the one to free them all. With her found family, she has defended against the dark and started a revolution. Now it is time to bring the story to a close and figure out […]
I love the Underwater Investigation Unit series, so I was thrilled to have this series with more of Sloan and her team. It didn’t quite work out that way. The Specialists is the combination of 3 series, the UIU series, the Theo Cray & Jessica Blackwood series, which is preceded by a Jessica Blackwood series, and […]
Installment Immortality is the fourteenth book in the Incryptid series which follows different members of the Price family as they try to protect the cryptid community from The Covenant of St George and others that might hurt it. This story focuses on Mary Dunlavy, part of the Price family, even though she is a former crossroads […]
I had always wanted to read this author and really enjoyed Killers of a Certain Age. I was thrilled the Killers of a Certain Age would continue as a series. The women seemed to be retired without being erased after the last adventure about two years ago. We have Helen, Natalie, Mary Alice and Billie. […]
