The Last Widow by Karin Slaughter | Review

The Last Widow by Karin Slau..

REVIEW: Whoa, what a great, heart-pounding story!! Karin Slaughter is the best when it comes to thrillers! I didn’t read anything about this one at all before I started, so imagine my surprise when I found Sara Linton kidnapped by some very bad guys right in front of Will Trent. I was horrified and terrified […]

Cockroaches by Jo Nesbo | Review

Cockroaches by Jo Nesbo | Re..

Review: I loved The Bat by Jo Nesbo so I was excited to read Cockroaches. Cockroaches is the second book in the Harry Hole series, but I’ve seen many people say to skip directly to the third book because the first two aren’t as good as the rest of them. I genuinely hate skipping books in […]

Down the River Unto the Sea by Walter Mosley | Review

Down the River Unto the Sea ..

I received a copy of this book for free from the publisher in exchange for an honest review. I also purchased a copy of the audiobook from Audible using my own money. Receipt of a review copy from the publisher did not affect my opinion of this book nor did it affect the content of my […]

The Black Ice by Michael Connelly | Review

The Black Ice by Michael Con..

Review: One of the things that I love most about Harry Bosch is that he won’t stop on a case until he finds the answers. He has to be satisfied that he has found justice, even if he is in danger, even if he ends up breaking the rules to do so. That’s exactly what […]

The Black Echo by Michael Connelly | Review

The Black Echo by Michael Co..

Review: Starting a huge series like this one can be such an intimidating thing – the Harry Bosch Universe is so long! That’s both a great thing and an overwhelming thing because there are tons of books to catch up on, and I want to read them in order. So I read The Black Echo by Michael […]

Beyond Reach by Karin Slaughter Review

Beyond Reach by Karin Slaugh..

Review: I have no idea how to talk coherently about how much I love the Grant County Series. It hasn’t been the crimes and solving them as much as it has been the character and their relationships that have made me gravitate toward these books and love them like I do. I’ve both been excited about […]

Faithless by Karin Slaughter Review

Faithless by Karin Slaughter..

Review: I feel a little bit mixed up after Faithless. On the one hand, Faithless is not my favorite in the series in terms of crimes and police procedure. But it isn’t my least favorite either. On the other hand: THIS IS EXACTLY WHAT I WANTED FROM SARA AND JEFFREY AND EVEN LENA! So this […]

Indelible by Karin Slaughter Review

Indelible by Karin Slaughter..

Review: I’m fairly certain that I didn’t take a good, deep breath the entire time I was reading Indelible. This is the best book of the Grant County series so far. Indelible recaptures everything that I felt the last book was missing, and then some. This is the fourth book in the Grant County series, following Blindsighted and Kisscut and […]

Odd Child Out by Gilly Macmillan Review

Odd Child Out by Gilly Macmi..

Review: Odd Child Out is the second book in the DI Jim Clemo Series, following What She Knew. I think it would be fine to read it as a standalone, although I read it immediately following the previous book and I feel like I was better able to appreciate several references made to the previous […]

What She Knew by Gilly MacMillan Review

What She Knew by Gilly MacMi..

REVIEW: I got lost in What She Knew by Gilly MacMillan very early in the story because it hit all of the right places with me as a reader who is also a mother. I could absolutely see myself as Rachel Jenner: a woman who would never hurt her child, completely vilified by the media and the […]
