Welcome to Litsy!

I finished this one, and it occupied me during 5 hours of driving and a couple hours of flying, but I can't say that it's very good. It's ridiculously convoluted, characters' motives don't make sense, and people kept referring to key cards as "scramble cards," which was weird. I can't find any references to that usage online.

Brilliant mystery! Henry, newly divorced and at a new apartment, is doing all it takes so his company comes out first with a scientific breakthrough worth millions. But there are sinister forces undermining him. Unexpected twists! A stand-alone story, but had great pacing (and LAPD)

I stumbled on this standalone Connelly and couldn't resist despite the mediocre reviews. I went in with low expectations and was pleasantly surprised! I think the trick is not to expect the Bosch/Haller/Ballard level of amazingness. A chemist on the verge of making a huge scientific breakthrough gets a new phone number, one that previously belonged to a missing sex worker. Driven by ghosts of his own past he's caught up in amateur sleuthing. 3.5⭐️

I was really disappointed in this book. I really enjoy The Lincoln Lawyer series, and thought I would try another one of his novels. I really wish I hadn't. I spent the whole time reading this novel thinking this would never happen! The only good thing is it didn't make it to my dnf list. ⭐

I generally adore anything Michael Connelly puts out but I have to say this is his weakest book. The story is rather formulaic and it‘s very easy to see how it will end.

#TimBitTunes #MoneyCityManiacs I havnt read this one , but I‘m pretty sure there will be Money & City & Maniacs involved. I must get back to Bosch soon , I miss him. ♥️

You know how when watching a scary movie you want to scream out, “Don‘t open the door!”? I found myself wanting to do that same thing through out this story. Not one of his best. I also was not satisfied with the ending. I guess everyone has a dud every once in awhile.
