The most important story of our times

a chiiling What If? that is not very far from current events, expertly told. Faster paced than Louise Penny's Gamache novels, but retaining her rich characterizations.

Could you survive on your own, in the wild, with everyone out to make sure you don't live to see the morning? In the ruins of a place once known as North America lies the nation of Panem, a shining Capitol surrounded by 12 outlying districts. The Capitol is harsh and cruel and keeps the districts in line by forcing them all to send one boy and one girl between the ages of 12 and 18 to participate in the annual Hunger Games, a fight to the death on live TV.

It's the week before deer hunting season, as close to a statewide holiday as you get in Texas, and the locals are getting restless. Game Warden John Marlin has his hands full with poaching complaints coming in faster than he can write out-of-season tickets. Then a call of a different sort comes in. A man dressed up in some sort of deer costume has been shot at the Circle S ranch, and witnesses are reporting a massive wild-eyed buck prancing about the pasture in a lovesick frenzy.

Blanco Fever
Revisado: 10-06-19
This three-ring Texas circus is more fun than a barrel of rednecks. Oh, wait, it *is* a barrel of rednecks. Redher pokes outrageous fun at the state he loves with a lively cast of characters and a fast-moving plot that twists in unpredictable ways. I spent a year in Austin so I especially enjoyed his culturally-specific imagery. Note: Rehder's hero. John Marlin, is a game warden and the book centers around deer season, told through the eyes of people for whom hunting is a way of life. If this is problematic for you, you might want to give this a miss and try Rehder's Roy Ballard mysteries instead.

As Wren uncovers the century-old tale of a World War I soldier and his angel, Death finds a set of truths that will change...or end...their lives.

Wren is a fabulous, original heroine, and her disabled combat vet beau is no slouch either. Ross successfully combines fun and smarts in this wonderful series. I can’t wait for the next book.

I wish Dan Brown had a better editor
Revisado: 10-14-17
I read Dan Brown because he introduces me to fascinating ideas and places. As a wordsmith he is mediocre. As for plotting, if he were a boxer he’d never make it through the first round because he telegraphs every punch. The devices he uses to create tension are cheap and annoyingly transparent. Shame on his editor for letting him get away with it.
I saw the end much to early. That said, I am fascinated by the architecture in the book and Spain is now on my bucket list. And the narration was excellent.

Arriving in Cairo for another thrilling excavation season, Amelia is relaxing in a well-earned bubble bath in her elegant hotel suite in Cairo when a man with a knife protruding from his back staggers into the bath chamber and utters a single word - "murder" - before collapsing on the tiled floor, dead. Among the few possessions he carried was a sheet of paper with Amelia's name and room number.

Satisfying Conclusion
Revisado: 07-28-17
As a long-time fan, I approached this posthumous work with trepidation. I'm happy to say, had I not known it was completed by Joan Hess, I would have thought it was entirely written by Elizabeth Peters. It fits neatly into the rest of the series. It was nice to fill the gap after Nofroet's marriage to Godwin. My only complaint is that this book could have addressed the underlying tension between Nofroet and Ramses more. The

When Warren has the opportunity to live with a female roommate, he instantly agrees. It could be an exciting change. Or maybe not. Especially when that roommate is the cold and seemingly calculating Bridgette. Tensions run high and tempers flare as the two can hardly stand to be in the same room together. But Warren has a theory about Bridgette: anyone who can hate with that much passion should also have the capability to love with that much passion. And he wants to be the one to test this theory.

It's a fun, sexy romp when Warren finds his new roommate's bitchy ways irresistible. Only she isn't having any. Told from Warren's point of view, Hoover shows she knows the inside of the male head and heart.

Wow. Just Wow.
Revisado: 09-08-16
Seductive is the best word I can use to describe Taylor Stevens writing. Her ability to pull you into an experience that is so far out of the norm is phenomenal.
Hillary Huber's languid style turns every word into an event.
I'll be coming back for more.

Fabulous Debut, with pitch perfect narration
Revisado: 07-26-16
I have a hard time believing this is a debut novel, it is so well crafted and entertaining I love how the author turns genre stereotypes on their ear with this wonderful crime-fighting couple. The plotting is very well thought out, and each piece works and is plausible. Watching Death and Wren work out the pieces is the most fun I've had with a book in ages!
