What a ride!!

Rhiannon is trying to be a better person, but it's hard. And life keeps throwing lemons at her.

The book ends with a cliffhanger and it's the beginning of the pandemic. That means book 4 is going to show her being stuck in lockdown and I don't think this will be good for her.

@Oryx - thanks for introducing me to Rhiannon

Skin and Bones: And Other Mike Bowditch Short Stories by Paul Doiron consists of 8 stories. Mike Bowditch is a Maine Game Warden who over explains, gets on the last nerve of hus superiors, and loves his jib, though sometimes he dies fet frustrated. The first 3 deal with Mike's mentor, Charley Steven's. The others deal with Mike from when he was a younger Game Warden, with the last one being a present one in the series.

THE BEAR TRAP, ⬇️

MonicaLoves2Read ⬆️, legendary Maine woodsman and bush pilot Charley Stevens tries to convince young Mike of the dangers awaiting rookie game wardens. I enjoyed going back in time and seeing Mike as a new game warden in this one.

RABID draws Mike into the story of a gruesome case involving a bat with rabies from Charley Steven‘s past. Rabid was really good. I liked how Charley told the story to Mike and how Mike at first wasn't too sure about it.

When a visiting hunter goes missing in the middle of a snowstorm, a young Charley Stevens sets off to rescue him—but begins to suspect the man may not want to be found in BACKTRACK. In Backtrack, we see Charley deal with something that still hunts him, even years after the event.

In THE IMPOSTER, Mike is confronted with a baffling case of stolen identity when he discovers a dead body whose driver‘s license claims he is none other than Mike Bowditch himself. I couldn't help but laugh a few times during this one. Mike had to figure out why someone wanted to be him. Had he made someone mad?

Mike tracks down a sinister prowler who turns a couple's dream vacation home into a nightmare in THE CARETAKER. In this one, Charley and Mike are taking a vacation at Charley's secluded cabin when they get disturbed by some city folks. The story they tell Mike and Charley doesn't make any sense until they go to the house.

An investigation into the killing of a bald eagle in SKIN AND BONES unearths an old case of a missing young man whose physically abusive brother might have murdered him. This one is creeeppy!

In SNAKEBIT, Mike must hunt down a killer who uses the unlikeliest of murder weapons: rattlesnakes. I don't like snakes, so this one gave me chills. Will Mike alienate everyone in the Warden Service trying to get to the bottom of the rattlesnakes, even though he is supposed to be off the case?

Mike suspects there‘s more to a grisly murder-suicide than meets the eye in SHEEP‘S CLOTHING. This had greed and murder in it. Who actually committed the murder? Who is all involved?

I enjoyed all these stories, especially the ones that were about Charley and a younger Mike. If you haven't read this series and like police procedural and murder cases, the Mike Bowditch Series is for you.

Tentative Publication Date May 13, 2025

This is my #TBRtarot read for May. “Let someone else pick your book.”

Brian did a great job! This is book 7 in the Teddy Fay series & Stone Barrington put in an appearance. I just love these characters.
Stuart Woods passed away in 2022 & Battles has done a great job taking over the two series.

I read this in 2016. I love Harlan Coben & his books. When I saw that Nobody‘s Fool was a sequel to this I couldn‘t figure out where Coben would be taking us. Soooo, I reread this so I can go into Nobody‘s Fool with it fresh in my mind.
Typical twisty Coben.

I finished listening to our May #WithTheBanned #WTB25 book. I‘m looking forward to our discussion. According to the author‘s website, the book is loosely based on her oldest daughter‘s addiction to crystal meth.

#Read2025 #SeriesLove2025 This is a prequel to Pullman‘s series His Dark Materials. Perhaps I should have read the series in publication order instead of chronological order but this is the first book chronologically. I still enjoyed it very much and I look forward to reading the series. Recommended.

Started a new book which was published yesterday. A Science Fiction book about Time Travel and the first book in the Madders of Time Series.

I‘m including this as part of my #ShelfSweeper Readathon as it is a Kindle version and is a review copy, so already sitting on my Kindle shelf for a couple of months. #4Elisabeth @Tove_Reads

I‘ve finished my May #DoubleSpin book.
I loved the Cerulean Sea duology. So when my nephew asked me if I‘d read book 1 in Klune‘s YA series, I happily agreed.
It‘s not on the same level as Cerulean but it still had great moments that made me feel the story. I laughed and I felt the characters‘ pain and sadness.
My nephew LOVED it btw. 🏳️‍🌈
