pickAnother excellent Kate Burkholder novel. I really feel like Ms Castillo is among the best in her genre. Kate‘s anger at the violent nature of the crimes propelled her to find the bad guy quickly. And I‘m proud of her; she didn‘t put herself in *as much* danger without backup this time. It‘s super great to see the leap Kate and John Thomasetti took with their relationship, which has spanned the entire series. A solid addition to the series.
pickAnother great Kate Burkholder story! This is the 14th and it‘s exciting that I‘ll be up-to-date with them soon as this author is still releasing them. This case involves Kate traveling to Pennsylvania to prove the innocence of someone special from her past. I enjoyed the flashbacks into Kate‘s relationship with Jonas Bowman, and I was not surprised at all to find that Kate continues to put herself in harm‘s way without backup or her firearm!
There was a total eclipse last night with a blood moon. I couldn‘t see it from where I am but found this gorgeous picture on the internet. The Eiffel Tower is a bit more picturesque than where I am anyway 😆.

pick#13 in the series. These books are so consistently good. The opening scene is the brutal murder of an ex-Amish woman, one that Kate knows from back when she used to be part of the Amish community.
I thought things were wrapping up when the investigation took a wild left turn, which kept me on my toes. I wish Kate didn‘t always put herself in dangerous circumstances-I think her propensity for danger gets a little old. But I do love this series.
pickReread! I have now read all of the Kate Burkholder Series, except her new one, Rage. I listened to The Burning this time, the first time I read it. Still really enjoyed it. Castillo writes such good books.

pickAn Evil Heart is sit in the small town of Planters Mill, Ohio. The 15th installment of the Kate Burkholder Series by Linda Castillo sees Kate Burkholder facing her most guersome murder, yet. A young Amish man is killed with a crossbow. The wound is something the corner has only seen once before, and that was an accidental shooting of a foot. Who would want to kill an Amish man like that?
I really enjoyed this book. I didn't ⬇️
pickHallowed Ground is a novella by Linda Castillo in the Kate Burkholder Series. I think this would make a perfect read for October, around Halloween. Kate Burkholder is called to an Amish farm where a dog has come up with a human bone. Her and Tomasetti are soon staking out an old cemetery.
