InfernoI'm going to be honest. I was not a fan of the Da Vinci Code or Angels and Demons. I'm not a religious man so it wasn't religiously offensive to me I just couldn't get into them. The Robert Langdon series turned around for me when I read Lost Symbol by Dan Brown. I'm fascinated... Continue Reading →
The Copper BraceletThis is amazing for the simple reason that this was written by 16 different authors. This is the sequel to The Chopin Manuscript bringing Harold Middleton back for another adventure. The Chopin Manuscript was originally a serial audio book. Every week there was a new chapter written by a different author. My favorite... Continue Reading →
The Girl Who Loved Tom GordonI have been reading a lot of YA right now. Yes it is really just two series so all of the characters are the same. Between The Last Apprentice and the Percy Jackson series I have been getting the two confused at times so I needed to return to the... Continue Reading →
Void MoonYay, I found another Connelly book I hadn’t read! Now I must wait until The Burning Room comes out in November. I have really liked his other one shot novel Chasing the Dime so I had high hopes for this one. If you read the summary of this it sounds like it would be... Continue Reading →
The Gods of GuiltWhen it comes to a choice between Connelly’s series I will always go with Harry Bosch. I love the character and the investigation is really what I enjoy about those books. I like Mickey Haller but he can at times be a real sleaze ball. I’m sure this is very true to... Continue Reading →
Trouble in MindWhat could be better than one of Deaver’s amazing stories? How about a collection of twelve amazing stories; I love his short story collections almost as much as his novels. With this collection I get a bunch of different stories with Deaver’s classic twists and misdirection all in one great book. I really... Continue Reading →
The DropHarry Bosch is one of my favorite detectives. He is on the list with Sherlock Holmes, Batman, and Lincoln Rhyme. I love each character for different reasons, and I love Bosch becuase he is written in a noir style. He reminds me of Humphrey Bogart in Casablanca. It has been a long time since I have read a...

The KeeperIt has almost been a year since I started blogging, and when I began I made sure to join Netgalley. I have gotten a lot of great books through them and have gone outside my comfort zone and found some authors I never would have tried otherwise. John Lescroart is one of those authors...

The ReversalMichael Connelly is one of my favorite authors. I have been a big fan of Harry Bosch almost from the beginning. I started a few books into his series but have since gone back and caught up. Now I am behind on his more recent books so I'm working on catching up. I hope to be... Continue Reading →
FirestarterI'm a big fan of Stephen King and I would like to think I can be considered a "Constant Reader". It was only a few years ago that I really got into his books and now I am on a mission to read everything by him. Whenever I need a new book to read and... Continue Reading →
