Happy reading, Sharon!

I saw in your April thread that you started the Mecy & Elvis series. It's one of my favorites. I hope you enjoy it.

I'm the same Michelle, I keep pulling it forward on my spreadsheet, but some other books jump ahead. I will get back to it though.

Thanks, Lauren. I love the Mercy and Elvis series. I just purchased the other books, and I will most likely binge-read them this month.

Lots of good stuff here! I hope you can get to The Quiet Librarian. It’s a tough and compelling story.

Enjoy everything, Sharon!

The Snowdonia Killings (DI Ruth Hunter, #1) by Simon McCleave The Snowdonia Killings

This is the first book in the DI Ruth Hunter series. Hunter moves from London to Snowdonia for a break, both personal and professional. Snowdonia has its first murder in years, the day Hunter reports to her new supervisor. It took me a bit to get used to McCleave's writing style, but when I did, the pace picked up and the story became exciting.

Karen A Brother Remembers by Kelsey Grammer Karen: A Brother Remembers

I heard Kelsey Grammer talk about his sister's death before, and its impact on his life. However, this telling of the events focuses on more than that. Grammer does jump around a little, which was a little confusing sometimes, but it is an excellent look at his life and the feeling that he let his sister down. The story gives a good picture of how a violent crime impacts a family and those who know and love them.

Cold Heart Creek (Detective Josie Quinn, #7) by Lisa Regan Cold Heart Creek

This is my favorite book so far. It's a great mystery that kept me guessing for the most part. Josie's dealings with events in her personal life were very stressful. I worried that Regan would take Josie and Noah in a direction I didn't want. I loved everything about it.

The Innocent (Will Robie, #1) by David Baldacci The Innocent 4*

Another great book/start of a series by David Baldacci

I also read:

Long Road to Mercy (Atlee Pine, #1) by David Baldacci Long Road to Mercy 5*

I had both of these KU books on my Kindle. Now I'm into two more series. I need to update my series tracker.

In the Pines (Columbia River, #3; Mercy Kilpatrick, #7) by Kendra Elliot In the Pines

I'm not sure why I stopped reading this series. I love it so much. I'm grateful that Kendra Elliot is the author of the month to get me back on track.

Thunder Bay (Cork O'Connor, #7) by William Kent Krueger Thunder Bay
Another great addition to this series.

Murder at King’s Crossing (Wrexford & Sloane, #8) by Andrea Penrose Murder at King’s Crossing It is fun catching up with this series.

Blue Dahlia (In the Garden, #1) by Nora Roberts Blue Dahlia A little too much gardening for a reader with a brown thumb, but I did enjoy the character interaction and the ghost.

Hidden Nature by Nora Roberts Hidden Nature

I worried about the path this story was going to take, but I ended up liking it in the end. Some of the dialogue had an Eve and Roarke feel to it.
