Love this series!

An outstanding book by a pair of my favorite authors, both together and separately. Something very wrong is washing up on the beach; you won't believe what it is and even worse where it is coming from. For those familiar with the Pendergast series, this book showcases his sometimes partner and his ward. But in this book, Pendergast puts some innocent people in harm’s way and harm does come to them. I am looking forward to the next book to see how he deals with this.

Highly entertaining! Read 600 plus pages in 2 nights

Reading this for my Georgette Heyer Book club - actually a re-read of this which I first ready many years ago. We started chronologically with the Black Moth but immediately went sideways into the books which reworked and referenced plot and character from the Black Moth. Still love Heyer's meticulous research and writing, but at least of her tropes in this and the prequel, These Old Shades, are disturbing, even based as they are on the use of the historically accurate assumptions and mores of the times.

I love Kellerman’s books, especially the Alex Delaware books, and this one did not disappoint. A young woman is trying to discover the truth about the death of her mother. Detective Milo Sturgis begins the case reluctantly, but soon sees there is more to the case than meets the eye. Milo enlisted the aid of his friend and police consultant psychologist Alex Delaware and together they discover that things are not really want they seem to be, now as well as in the past.

Cozy mystery comtinuin the Tearoom mysteries series

Similar to aurora teagarden mysteries, and with some of the main characters ( a dour but caring coworker, female chief of police and a loveable love interest) this cozy mystery series takes you through a mystery set in a small town. What is interesting is the author- a real life librarian who has given her main character her knowledge and love of books and the library

Let me start off by saying that I am not a fan of biographies for the simple reason that not everything in a person’s life will be interesting,,,or so I thought until I read this book. Just about every minute of this book kept me engaged and wondering what would happen next. And to say that it is about an immigrant from Yemen who is working as a doorman and want to start a business importing coffee from Yemen doesn’t do it justice. It is the amazing story of a young man committed to improving the life of coffee farmers in his home country and of someone who will literally do anything to accomplish that. Excellent read!

I have mixed feeling about this book. The beginning is loaded up with a lot of medical details of surgeries, so that will not be for everyone. In the middle it got better, but then it got very preachy on how terrible the nutritional supplements (vitamins) industry is and how is mostly quackery. That aside, the book is supposed to be about how relatively easy it is to utilize technology to alter records so that professionals, in this case doctors, may now be as qualified as they seem. Whole story seems a bit far fetched to me and while it wasn’t terrible, overall I think there are much better books out there.

So entertaining!
