Mystery Maven

Where's the Plot?

Revisado: 03-19-25

I was extremely disappointed with this work. It's Richard Osman, so I expected a great read. Instead, multiple characters are introduced so rapidly it's difficult to keep everyone straight. We get bits and pieces of information about the characters but no real depth of their nature. Not even Miss Marple could locate the Plot. The audio narration is flat and boring. Recommend skipping this one.

Gripping

Revisado: 01-23-25

Deeply human characters and suspense that leaps off the page will keep you up all night just to finish. Be sure to start early in the day so you can get a good night's rest. Unless you start the next book in the series; in which case it's a flashlight under the covers!

Bottomless Love

Revisado: 08-02-24

It's amazing to me how some people have a bottomless love and an infinite capacity to forgive. This work is about family facing daunting challenges very much in the public eye. This book was deeply moving, and I am grateful to Mr. Trump for sharing his story.

You'll Never Figure Out This One

Revisado: 05-19-24

I love the originality of the plots, the beguiling characters and the historical elements. Warning: once you start you can't put it down. Strongly suggest you start with the first in the series, Also, if you listen to the audio, the narrator is a genius with the voices. I can see teenage Christopher and the old gentleman grandfather. Enjoy!

Great Characters, Fascinating plot

Revisado: 02-08-24

I loved the spunky, impetuous character of Erin O'Reilly. The writer immerses you in the NYPD. It just feels so genuine and honest. That's not easy to accomplish. Now that I've found her, I'll read the entire series!

I couldn't put this book down. Original characters with depth, an intriguing plot, and a suspenseful conclusion. Love this heroine and can't wait for the next installment.

Brilliant.

The action never stopped, and you won't see the end coming. A stunning reflection of the evil growing in Nazi Germany.

This book has it all

Revisado: 04-09-22

Suspense, humor, a dash of romance, this book is smashingly clever. Twists and turns, but all logically investigated. Original premise.
Masterfully read.

Unusual and mildly disappointing

Revisado: 11-17-21

The danger facing biographers is that they sometimes fall in love with their subject. That accusation cannot be made here. There are many criticisms of the Adamses, generally without supporting arguments. The result is a skewed view of these men, shallow and incomplete. I found this work vague and unsatisfying.
