I believe it would not be a lie to say I have read everything Michael Connelly has published. I even read a bunch of anthologies he was a part of with other crime / detective writers. Anyway, when I saw there was another Lincoln Lawyer novel out, I was pumped. I like Mickey Haller a lot as a character, and I like his proximity to my possibly favorite fictional character Harry Bosch (Mickey is Harry’s half-brother). While I’ve mowed through the Bosch books and then […]

Will probably go back to it at some point or maybe watch the show. Interior Chinatown*** I wish I liked this one more than I did. The satire is razor sharp, the story is deep and the pain is […]

Last year (literally the beginning of January 2021) I started reading the Detective Harry Bosch books. There are twenty something in total that are just Bosch books. There are also some offshoots that are considered part of the Harry Bosch Universe.
