blood Relatives
by Ed McBain
View in Library Catalog
book cover


At its heart, this is a police procedural. But the characters are so well explored within this context and the circumstances so bizarre, that the story, though bloody and twisted, is very interesting. If you like cop drama, you will definitely enjoy this one.

I loved this book—captivating, emotional, and beautifully written. The characters felt real, and the story kept me hooked. The ending left me heartbroken, though. We don’t always get the happy ending we want or deserve, and this book is a powerful reminder of that.

This translated book from Japanese was very interesting. A boy of high school age who works in his family’s bookstore has just lost his grandfather who he lived with. He shuts himself away in the bookstore until a strange visitor comes into the shop. I liked the different writing this book presented as well as the way it presents a different way of looking a books.

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.

Excellent book. I almost put it down after a few pages, but I persevered and am glad I did. Very well written, interesting novel. Expats from Jamaica in England whose lives intersect and secrets are unraveled as the book progresses. Twists and turns I did not see coming. Looking forward to the next book by this author.

Enjoyed this book. Rock and Roll combined with sibling fighting and competition. The end was satisfying.

The Honeymoon Crashers

This book is the true embodiment of the romantic comedy, but when you first begin it, that is not what you will see. It is well done and is set in Maui, so there is nothing not to love. A nice summer fun read.

Dead Sleep
by Greg Iles

book cover


In this story about women who go missing and then have their dead images appear in paintings, Isles does an excellent job in developing the characters and their connections to one another. And this is important because the subject matter here is often harsh and without this development of characters, it would simply be a brutal story. I was on the edge of my seat the whole time and liked the ending.
