Widow's Walk
by Robert B. Parker
View in Library Catalog
book cover


For those of us who read a lot of mysteries, after a while, you can often see the ending coming. Not in this one! The central character’s alibi appears to be that she is just too dumb to organize and commit this crime. And it turns out what she did do really ends up confusing the police. A good whodunit.

The Kingmaker's Daughter
by Philippa Gregory
View in Library Catalog
book cover


This book follows the 2 daughters of the man who was responsible for people seated on the throne of England in the 1400's. It follows the 2 girls through their lives and does a beautiful job of following their changing view of the position of Queen from their childhood until their death. It is a wonderful, albeit at times a grim, look at the life of powerful women during that time period.

The Lost Coast

book cover


This is one of those books you can read more than once because there is a lot going on and there are parts of it I still am not clear on. An investigator is hired to check on large payments that were made by the client’s late aunt. The investigation uncovers more than initially suspected and reveals a well-crafted web of deceit. A good book but I feel like I missed some things.

The sequel to The Perfect Marriage was very good as well. Should read the first one so you have an idea about what happened before you read the sequel. Good story. Not as twisty and not as good as the first one, but worth the read.

I loved this book! The science behind the neuroparacites and the black rocks was interesting and made sense. I also liked how the relationship between the characters developed and evolved. I just wish the MFC could focus a little more on the plot rather than THIRSTING OVER HER PROFESSOR!!!!

Found it interesting the comparison between the great grandmother, who had a stroke, and the great grandson, who was artistic and nonverbal how they managed to communicate with each other with the use of an iPad, and how the great grandmothers story from her childhood in Poland during the World War II unfolds
