A Death at Camp David by Harry A. Milman
Here is the 8th genre winner for the category of Thrillers in the Book Talk Radio Club Awards. There are a lot of questions in this book, which I think is a sign of a good mystery. Can a self-described suave toxicologist and a slovenly private investigator find out … Continue reading A Death at Camp David by Harry A. Milman
Blood Ribbon by Roger Bray
This book is the Best in Thrillers winner of 2018 Book Talk Radio Club Awards. While this book definitely fits the thriller genre it has a nice benefit of not being gruesome. I would easily share this with a mature YA reader. Another benefit is that this book is a standalone and has a complete … Continue reading Blood Ribbon by Roger Bray
Love Fiesta Style: 17 Texas Short Stories by Various Authors
If you’ve been following my blog for a while, you notice that I rarely read and review romance. In fact there are only two romance writers that I automatically say yes to - one of them is Jessie Scott. Of course, when she approached me about reading this collection I said yes! Plus the fact … Continue reading Love Fiesta Style: 17 Texas Short Stories by Various Authors
The Hard Goodbye By Chris Miller
I have read a few things by this author so I know that when I start one of his books I need a few things to be in place. Like daylight, someone close by, and a chunk of time because I won’t want to put it down. I took this read with me to the … Continue reading The Hard Goodbye By Chris Miller
Nexus of Change (Tasks of the Nakairi Book 2) by K. E. Young
While this is the second book in the series, it reads more like an episode – meaning the main character has changed from the first book. Even though I could never think of anyone as “just a librarian,” this main character is that and so much more. A Martial arts expert, creative jewelry maker and … Continue reading Nexus of Change (Tasks of the Nakairi Book 2) by K. E. Young
A Prisoner’s Perspective – The Redemption of a Criminal Mastermind by Mike Savage
While this book won the Best In Memoirs category of the Book Talk Radio Club Awards, it is much more than a tale of a man’s life. The author was a prisoner in the literal sense but also in the mental sense too. The book gives us just a glimpse into the … Continue reading A Prisoner’s Perspective – The Redemption of a Criminal Mastermind by Mike Savage
The Ordinary Life by Mario Kiefer
Is anyone ordinary? While this book says it follows the lives of three ordinary people, I believe that ordinary is like normal – it all depends on your perspective. Normal is a state of mind, and the same could be said for ordinary. Having read the second book by this author Ordinary Doll and been … Continue reading The Ordinary Life by Mario Kiefer
Evacuation Plan: A Novel From The Hospice by Joe M. O’Connell
At first, this book appears to be a set of short stories. However, as you read you realize that the stories are really chapters and part of a bigger novel. At times this worked, but there were a few cases with new chapters where I could not figure out how they fit in. It was … Continue reading Evacuation Plan: A Novel From The Hospice by Joe M. O’Connell
