| This was my first Jo Nesbo book. Although the 11th in the series, I found it worked easily as a standalone. My first reaction was, wow, it's long. Not many 544-page thrillers out there. But it kept me engrossed with good, well-developed characters an ...more | |
"This one started a bit slow, and I was feeling disappointed by the pace. Then it picked up steam and almost ran me over. It was great to catch up with Danny, Jessica, and the gang, and the new characters grew on me more than I expected. The story is "

"I am amazed that I enjoyed a book featuring two young girls. Not the typical protagonist about which I read. An exciting and entertaining story. So glad I took advantage of the opportunity to request this book from NetGalley. My review is voluntary."

| 3.5 rounded up. First, I love Tana French. The Secret Place is one of my favorite books ever. No point describing the characters or plot at this point. Many have done so. As always, the characters and their relationships are well-developed. Cal, the ...more | |

| Fun coming-of-age story set in a legendary era at a never-to-be-repeated event. The story itself was a bit too sugary sweet for my tastes, but I still enjoyed it. The research was impressive, and getting the permissions to use the song lyrics and sta ...more | |

| Really can't go wrong with Ed McBain books for a quick read. Classic police procedurals with gritty stories and characters. This 87th Precinct title from 1972 reflects the era and has a compelling storyline until it kind of fizzles at the end. ...more | |
