First, you should probably go read Scootsa1000’s review here…because her review made me want to read the book–and what if I don’t do as good of a job? Then you’ll be missing out on a great book recommended by Rainbow Rowel AND Scootsa1000! I don’t want that on my conscience. Ok. I’ll start here. I loved this book. If that were enough, that’s all I would say. But I’ll say a little more. Have you ever read the Ice Storm where you know everything is […]
Now You See Him….
I can honestly say I am surprised that I loved this book. I thought the last two Rhyme books were seriously off and I didn’t even know if I could continue with this one, but I did. Glad I bought it. We have Rhyme and Sachs investigating a case in which a murderer has someone escaped from what appears to be a locked room. The more they investigate, the more they find themselves embroiled in the world of magic and illusion. I got a kick […]
The Incident at the Barbeque
Six responsible adults. Three cute kids. One small dog. It’s just a normal weekend. What could possibly go wrong? Once again, Liane Moriarty weaves a tale of suburban couples and what goes on below a seemingly serene surface. In this book, there was an incident at a barbeque that has three couples dealing with the fall out. The tale is told the same way as in Big Little Lies in that the we see events from different perspectives and it jumps back and forth between […]
Should Have Been a Short Story
Eh. This was not my favorite Bosch. After a couple of home-runs with this series, this was definitely a disappointment. About half the length of his usual books, Connelly uses this to just show readers excerpts from his other books. I hit the finish line with this book at 74 percent I think. The remaining was just excerpts. This felt and reads more like a short story. We have so many plot holes I don’t even know which to begin with in “The Overlook.” It’s […]
Reckoning for Bosch
What can I say about Bosch at this point? This book gives you a great mystery, politics, and finally someone just calling out Harry for the crap he keeps pulling when it comes to always doing things his way and his whole damn the consequences thing. “Echo Park” is the 12th book in the Harry Bosch universe. With Harry now back working Open/Unsolved cases with his partner Kiz, he feels better than he has in a while. However, one of Harry’s past cases which has […]
“Philosophically speaking, truth is a slippery concept and one should always be alive to nuance.”
This is Book 6 in the Rivers of London/Peter Grant series. It is SO much better than the last outing, and I’m so very happy. I would put it right up there with Midnight Riot and Broken Homes (my two favorites so far). These are not individual mysteries. I highly recommend reading this series in order because there is an ongoing story that builds with each one. There are apparently graphic novels that take place in between some of the novels, and I think those […]
