pickIf, like me, you‘ve read all the Anna Pigeon books and are looking for something similar to fill that gap, look no further! Alex is a field biologist who goes to rural Montana for a wolverine study on protected land. After an extremely frosty reception from the locals, she sees a man running and vomiting on her one trail camera and things get going from there. I‘ve already put book 2 on hold.
pickThe Shallows is comprised of short, suspenseful chapters that alternate between the past and present, keeping me engaged and eagerly turning the pages. characters were likable and easy to empathize with, although I kept a skeptical eye on some of the secondary characters. As the story drew to a close, so did its intensity. Loved it! 🌊

pickLOVED this second book in this series. It was impossible to put this book down. I love the way Kay hoopers books give little pieces of information throughout the story and then everything ties together perfectly at the end but leaves it open for the next book.

A #BOTMBacklog (2018) for my June #bookspin. Tackle that #TBR
I enjoy Sager‘s novels - quick reads to keep me guessing.
pickI was really looking forward to this book because I love her other books. Sadly it didn‘t live up to my expectations. It was not as thriller like as I wanted it to be and the ending was a little bit of a let down. That is not to say it was a bad book - I enjoyed it and found it to be a good story with a good plot and characters who I loved. There were a few twists I was not expecting and that I found surprising. Overall I would recommend!

First time getting a skip the line notification from Libby. This was on my #AuldLangSpine list and I have had it on hold since January. Yes, January. I realize I could have started it anytime via KU but Troy Duran is worth the wait 😍 🎧
pickWhat a book! You have an estranged daughter, a dad losing his mind to Lewy body dementia, and if that's not enough, a cold case! Clark writes in a way that drags you into the book right beside her characters.

pickA private investigator unwisely gives a teenage girl a ride one rainy evening. The novel has lots of characters with a plot who keep the story going. Cal Weaver (PI) and his wife had a son who died tragically. There are deaths and missing persons. You‘ll find good guy and bad guys. There are tense moments and reasons to keep moving forward toward the end. I gave this 4.25/5⭐️
