I have loved everything I have read from Robert Dugoni. The series I’ve read are all mysteries of some sort: a police procedural, a spy thriller and now a legal thriller. Beyond Reasonable Doubt is the next in the Keera Duggan series. The setting is Seattle, as some of his other series and we have […]
I was happy to continue the Laurel Snow series. I like Laurel and Huck. Abigail and Zeke are wacky characters, a bit cliche in their evil as malignant narcissists. We learn more about Laurel and Huck personally. It was especially great to get more of Huck’s history. The murders and the capabilities of Jason Abbott […]
A mysterious woman, a ghostly house, and a serial killer in the past are the research subject for a present-day woman who discovers the deadly secrets from the past have reawakened. Jaime Jo Wright has a gift for dual-timeline suspense. This is only my second visit to her books, but the experience rivaled my first […]
I loved the first book, An Inheritance of Magic so I was excited to read more. Over the past year, Benedict Jacka has done a series of information on the aspects of the magic in this world from the element types, to the Houses, to the skill levels, etc. I read all these before starting […]
Storm of Ink and Blood is the third installment of the Nightfire Quartet, following Zarya on her journey from basically a captive in a small area growing up mostly alone with her adoptive father to the chosen one who will save them all. I want to thank Nasha J Tuli for the fun glossary introduction […]
I listened to the first book in the Wild Magic series immediately before starting Lightning in Her Hands which is the second one. The series is about three sisters with magical gifts. Witch of Wild Things is about Sage, the oldest, who is a plant whisperer. Now we have the story of Teal, who affects […]
Mattie has continued to develop her professional skills with Robo and widen her personal connections in the Timber Creek K-9 series. In Gathering Mist, the man who originally trained her and Robo asks her to go along to a search for a 9 year old boy in Washington state. The Olympic peninsula has dense forests, […]
Blood of the Old Kings is a Korean novel translated to English. As I’ve found with other writers from other countries there is a distinct type of storytelling/flow that wasn’t specifically what I’m used to in American novels but might be more prevalent in Korean ones. I don’t think if you didn’t know the original […]
I enjoyed continuing in the Mercy & Elvis Mysteries series. I know the world and the characters now. In The Night Woods, Mercy is very pregnant and goes walking around the property and its woods. She is skilled, mostly fit, and has Elvis with her but I felt it was a bit ridiculous. She […]
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. […]
