Thriller
Something More To Say by Tony J Forder | Book Review
DI Jimmy Bliss is back and while I haven’t met him before now I was thrilled at the introduction. He is the head (in a civilian capacity) of the Unsolved Murders Team which is like the Cold Case Squads we have here in the States. To add to that he is also the SIO (Senior…
The Aftermath by Paul Gitsham | Book Review
This book had me hooked from the first page but I honestly thought I had things figured out pretty quickly. I was worried that I was going to spend the rest of the book being bored because I knew what was going to happen. I hate when that happens in any book. What I discovered…

Identity by Nora Roberts | Book Review
One thing I always love about Nora Roberts is her ability to draw the reader into her world and make you feel as though you are right there with the characters. It is a talent that has always amazed me and one of the biggest reasons I enjoy her books so much.
The Match by Harlan Coben | Book Review
This is the sequel to The Boy in the Woods, which I haven’t read. I will say after reading this one I think I should have read the first one. While this does work as a stand alone I think I felt as though I missed out on learning more about Wilde. He grew up…
Iris in the Dark by Elissa Grossell Dickey | Book Review
I wanted to love this book so much. The blurb sets the scene for an amazing story, and in fact, the story itself was amazing. Iris Jenkins is running from her past. A past that includes an abusive ex-boyfriend who left her in fear for not only her life but also her unborn son at the…

A Moment of Faith by Martin Svaneborg | Book Review
Søren Kierkegaard is a philosopher that I have never read anything more than quotes from his works. After reading this I want to read his works now. Part of this story is told through letters from Kierkegaard to the love of his life, Regine Olsen. I do not now if the letters are authenticated or…
