This Book Will Bury Me
by Ashley Winstead

book cover


Pretty solid book with well developed characters. I like how they showed the passage of time and brought them through multiple cases. I do not know a lot about true crime slueths, but while reading I felt like I had to suspend A LOT of belief. Do people inuding cops just give info to these internet people like it's nothing? Great for fans of thrillers. Just had moments where i felt the characters didn't make rational human decisions, but u guess that is for the sake of the story. Justifying ending, which is rare for the genre. Wanted a where are they now at the end for the other characters.

An emotional read, with insights into the meaning of friendships, the bonds we make with others, and the process of grieving. A shout out to Art Therapy.

My new favorite book series. The TV series Tracker is based off of these novels and if you like the show, you will love the books. This one was very exciting with some thrills, twists and turns in the plot. Thre characters have a lot of depth to them and I highly recommend you start at the beginning of the series as their is a continuous undelying story that takes place throughout each of them.

Two things attracted me to this book: an author I enjoy reading and the setting (London neighborhoods). It is set between WWI and WWII. Violet navigates dealing with loss of family and Laurence, her fiancé. Then taking the next step out of her Mother’s house. Her journey brings her to a group who embroider for Westminster chapel. Friendships develop, family changes, crises dealt with all Drew me into posing questions such as ‘What will happen?’ Interesting book to savor on days so hot you need to stay inside.

I really enjoyed this novel. I was inspired to read it after hearing the author speak and read excerpts from her book at EMPL. It is a fast read about why Grace left her family years ago.

The Night Shift

This is a solid book. Some of the (main) reveals were instantly predictable, but the story was well done and interesting. I think it is dun and sad how the story takes place in the era(s) I grew up in. I am getting very old if I related to the timing in the flashback periods of thriller novels. The ending was a little hodgepodge and random. Plus there were still some things that were unexplained (and one unnecessary), but I am excited to read more from Finlay

Very much the Golden Girls we we all know and love. However, it was very difficult to get through this one. It would have made a good episode for the show but not a book.

The Honeymoon Crashers

book cover


This book was just what I needed for a summer read, light and breezy. Twin Olive announces to her very close family that she and her fiancé are going to elope in Hawaii so not to remind her sister, Amelia, of her failed marriage. The family plans to surprise the couple in Hawaii with a full blown wedding. Ami and her cousin Diego set off early to start the preparations. Ami is forced to plan the wedding with charismatic best man Brody and eventually they like each other. Was this whole elopement a ruse to get Ami out of her rut. Read and find out. I also recommend the audiobook, it is read with multiple actors and sound effects.
