Erik Larson writes well researched books. When I read a book that he has written I know that I am going to get well researched, well written book that will transport me to whatever the year or years the book includes. I can vividly see myself there.

I love watching shows like 20/20, 48 Hours and Dateline, and this book fell right along with that. Douglas and Olshaker write about the beginning of the Behavioral Unit at the FBI. They look at the behind the scenes.

The first part of the book dealt with Douglas' early life and time at the FBI. I would have preferred they looked at more cases. Some of the cases they explored I knew about, but there were quite a few I didn't. Overall, ⬇️

I found 'The Fury' to be just okay. There are a lot of twists and turns it takes. It flip flops a whole lot between past and present, which I don't usually mind, but the way it was written didn't work for me. There's been mixed reviews on it and I can see why. The narrator, Elliott, was unreliable to me.

'The Boy Who Cried Bear' is the.second book in the Haven's Rock Series by Kelley Armstrong. Casey and Eric are one of my favorite detective and sheriff duo. They have left Rockton and started a new hidden town in the Yukon called Haven's Rock.

There are a lot of things different between Haven's Rock and ⬇️

Another great one! Robb looked at some current topics dealing with teens. I always feel like I am visiting old friends, when I read an 'In Death' book. This is the 58th one in the series and I have read them all.

The third book in the 'Brides of Lancaster County' by Wanda E. Brunstetter. Plain and Fancy was well written. Laura is from Minnesota and goes to Designing School in Pennsylvania. She meets Eli Holder, who is Amish. Eli has not joined church, yet, bc he hasn't meet the woman he wants to spend the rest of his life with. That doesn't matter to his mother. She thinks Pauline is the perfect wife for Eli After Eli and Laura meet, they try ⬇️

Ugh! I finally finished this book. I almost DNF'd it multiple times, but stuck with it. It just wasn't very interesting to me, until I got about 60% into it, which is way more than I usually give a book. Up til that, every time I was reading, I would fall asleep.

I think Robbins tried to do too much in the book. He tried to combine comedy, romance, mystery, and conspiracy. I think he should have left out the comedy part. I thought ⬇️

I really enjoyed this book. As a Christian, I wonder what heaven will be like when I get there. As the song goes: I Can Only Imagine.

Inspirational true story of Don Piper. He was in a horrible wreck, ended up dying and spending 90 minutes in Heaven. He knows how long bc that's how long the EMT's said he was dead.

The only thing I didn't like about it was that it seemed to me too be repetitive in spots. Overall, 4.5 ⭐

A- A Pastors wife, God what were you thinking. This was a great book. I should have done this on the review section but oh well lol. I do t know who to tag for the #AlphabetChallenge2024 Couldnt find the original post about it.

1. My goal is to read at least 50 books like last year but ilI want to read 100 books. And to read more nonfiction books and to read daily. To read more instead on playing on my phone. 2. #serieslove2024 #bookspinbingo #alphabetchallenge2024
