THE FROZEN PEOPLE, author Elly Griffiths' latest book, has many of the same features as her previous books. She has a well drawn central character, great supporting characters, experts in a variety of subjects, and the wonderful English humor, countryside, and history. Her new book has now added time travel to the mix ... How much easier crime solving would be if the police could arrive in time to see the villain running from the body with a bloody knife in his hand? ( Why they couldn't arrive before the murder and stop it is a question for another time!) This book takes the investigators back to Victorian times. Why were they looking into such an old case? You'll have to read the book to find out ... Or, better yet, start reading her series featuring forensic pathologist Ruth Galloway!!

This was a great summer read for me. It kept me interested and wanting to keep reading to see what happened next. I am not a fast reader at all but was able to finish in a few days and really enjoyed this book. I would recommend it for a quick easy read.

The book is about a movie star who is black listed in Hollywood because of her costar in her latest movie. The story was interesting although of the story seemed forced to fit the narrative

What happened to Eszter? That is what Abby, her fiancé, would like to find out. Abby travels to Isla Colel to try to piece together the last days of her fiancé’s life. Although Eszter had such life threatening food allergies she was always careful and always had her epi pen. What Abby unravels are secrets. Secrets kept by the inhabitants of Isla Colel and Eszter’s group of friends and Eszter herself. This was an exciting page turner with an ending that you would never expect. I recommend this book as your next read.

I enjoyed some of the stories in this short story collection. I enjoyed hearing the author's explanations of how each story came to be.

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

This book was RIVETING! A southern family drama meets the godfather!

Lucky for us Bill Clinton the former two term president of the USA continues to write with James Patterson. Former president Clinton brings Patterson to credible writing. If not for Clinton I would not be reading Patterson. The First Gentleman is a must summer read. Fast paced especially the courtroom scenes. A couple of bizarre twists and turns but I didn't care, I figured Patterson wrote them. Looking for the next presidential adventure.

I really enjoyed the beginning of this biography, but it slowed significantly later on. Dani was raised in an orthodox Jewish family. As an adult, she takes a DNA test and discovers that her biological father was not Jewish. This completely alters her image of herself, and she proceeds to investigate how it is possible that her dad is not her biological father, and her parents, no longer alive, never told her. It turns out that she was conceived in the early time of artificial insemination, when little was known about it. She attempts to find family who can help her understand her history, and to find her biological father. Add a star or 2 if you or someone close to you has an unknown parent.

The lies of four teenagers 15 years ago haunts them, and must be revisited as a body is found.
