This was a pretty good Brennan book. After 17, you'd expect them to start getting stale, but I thought this was one of the better ones. Narrator did a great job.

panInteresting premise that didn't quite come together for me. It's part fairy tale, part police procedural, somewhat reminiscent of Lauren Beukes, but not as well put together. It includes some interesting history about Chicago, but it's delivered by characters who sound like they're reading internet search results. And I don't think the MC could have gotten a master's degree in lit and then joined the police and made detective by age 25.
pickMy #bookspin for September. I always enjoy Fiona Davis‘ books. I love how she weaves a woman‘s narrative around historical events that I‘m not familiar with. She also has a way of capturing New York City in a way that makes it just as much a character as the people in her stories. 🌟🌟🌟🌟

4⭐️ I quite liked this book. I have known about her property in Palm Beach and as I read the book, I was quite surprised at what an amazing woman she must have been. I wish she had had a husband who was better suited for her. #2022 #bookreview #bookstagram #historicalfiction #fiction #basedonatruestory #wwi #greatdepression #wwii
This was my October #bookspin book
so-soI feel like my so-so here is rather generous. I love Stephen King's stories. Or I hate them. I find there is no in between. Now, for the first 3rd I thought this was gonna be a love. But, alas, the last 2/3, which on audio ran for 16 hours of the 24 total, was a slog. I got to 2 hours from the end and very nearly bailed. So, again, so-so is generous. But, hey, you may love it.
