Eventually, morning came instead of bad guys. That was the thing about mornings. No matter how fucked up your life got, how deep and black your despair, how sure you were that you just couldn‘t take another second of this shit, morning just kept on coming. Over and over. Morning didn‘t give a damn about your little drama.

Entertaining, full of twists, set against the background of the sleeze of the porn industry, this is an unusual and well-drawn story. Angel Dare goes from a cliché porn star to a hard-boiled tough chick, in a well-written, believable transformation. She gets betrayed, is hunted by both the cops and the bad guys, uncovers a sex slavery operation, and completely loses her previous life. Great ride. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️/5

Gezemice I wanted to read more crime stories but I am not very familiar with the genre, so I did some googling. This was one of the recommendations on bookriot by our very own @Liberty . About noir books. Good pick! https://bookriot.com/2017/12/14/noir-books/ 7y

Trying audiobooks. Again. I know this book forwards and back, so we'll see if that helps. I really like the narrator so far (I'd actually listened to maybe an hour months ago, thought I would start at the beginning.) 👍😃

LizzyM I have tried audiobooks so. Many. Times. All fails. *sigh* I hope you have better luck than me! 9y
brendanmleonard @LizzyM it's so weird because I have no problem with podcasts 9y
LizzyM @brendanmleonard now that you mention it, that is so weird because I don't have problems with podcasts either! 9y

Louise I enjoy audio books in foreign languages for the language practice. 9y
Sue I have a theory that learning styles impact your enjoyment of audiobooks. Aural is my top learning method, so audiobooks make things more real for me. I suspect a lot of readers learn better by reading stuff, so actual books are a better fit. This is of course completely untested 😁 9y
stargazerblue49 For me, it depends on he audiobook. I can listen to a book that takes place in the real world no problem. Throw in some sci-fi/fantasy or any sort of world building and it becomes a lot more of a challenge for me to listen to. 9y
kristina_with_a_k I can't seem to get into audiobooks. 😕 9y
Lizpixie I have an iPod full of audiobooks that I listen too when I go to bed. The hubster can't sleep with even a book light on, so this is how I fall asleep. 9y

Here's my TBT selection. I freaking love this book, you guys. Strong voice, a nasty, uncompromising revenge thriller, and slyly subversive to boot! Angel Dare is one of my favorite characters in fiction, and this book (which I read in 2008) rekindled my love of the crime genre. Read. This. Book.

brendanmleonard Also, there's the bleak as heck sequel 9y
brendanmleonard Thanks to @brittnaypozen for the TBT idea! Love all of us sharing ideas! 9y
brendanmleonard @NikkiDolson have you read this? I've only known a few others who have! 😀 9y
NikkiDolson I have! I'm a big fan of the publisher and read this when it first came out. 🙂 9y
brendanmleonard Hard Case Crime for the win! One of two publishing lines I collect! So excited that she's writing a 3rd Angel Dare book! 9y
