The Perfect Marriage: Meh.

The Perfect Marriage by Jeneva Rose

August 17, 2021 by msvreadsbooks Leave a Comment

Meh. That’s about my whole review.  But in the interest of following CBR rules, here we go.  Adam and Sarah Morgan are a couple in crisis. They are growing apart thanks to Sarah’s demanding job as a lawyer and Adam’s failure to publish a quality follow-up novel to his first one. And Adam is having an affair. But when Adam’s lover is found dead in the Morgans’ beach house, he is the prime suspect.  Sarah runs herself ragged as she tries to both keep up […]

Not exactly Little Red Riding Hood

Big Bad Wolf by Suleikha Snyder

February 2, 2021 by Malin 4 Comments

Disclaimer! I got an ARC from NetGalley. That has in no way influenced my review.   In a dystopian alternate reality, where the 2016 election led to the USA becoming a tightly regulated surveillance state, pretty much at the same time as the existence of a number of supernatural beings were revealed, several big cities, including New York, are now a Sanctuary City for supernaturals. Joe Peluso, an ex-soldier turned werewolf through military experimentation, is in prison for murdering six bear shifters with ties to […]

Lawyering, fast and loose, like old times

The Rooster Bar by John Grisham

May 28, 2018 by ardaigle Leave a Comment

Back in the day I devoured John Grisham books like candy. The “classics” I remember fondly, aka, The Firm, The Client, The Pelican Brief, The Runaway Jury, and, a departure from the thes, A Time to Kill. For no real discernible reason, it’s been about a decade (whoa) since I have picked one up and a quick pass over the “hot and new” section at my local library grabbed my attention as unsurprisingly, John is still at it. A few of my book clubs are […]

All he wants is an innocent client…

An Innocent Client (Joe Dillard Series Book 1) by Scott Pratt

February 14, 2018 by kfishgirl Leave a Comment

I think I found this book in the Kindle Unlimited library randomly one day.  It looked good, so I downloaded it.  Who knows when that was.  Anyway, I finished it, and I liked it.  I’m already reading the second book in the series.  I ACTUALLY STARTED THIS SERIES ON THE FIRST BOOK!  That is truly an accomplishment for me.  Also, it looks like the entire series so far is on Kindle Unlimited.  This brings me joy. Onto the story!  Joe Dillard has been a defense […]

Sycamore Row by John Grisham

With Sycamore Row, John Grisham is back not only with his characters and location from A Time to Kill, but with his story telling.
