Mystery/Thriller Reading Friends discussion

I typed this up and posted it on Tuesday but it has never appeared - so try again....

The Chocolate Castle Clue JoAnna Carl This series is like an old friend. I like the characters and the stories. This one didn't have a lot to do with the chocolate shop itself. 8


The Gentlemen's Hour Don Winslow. I am starting to like this author more and more. This was a sequel to the Boone Daniels, surfer series. 8

The Dog Who Knew Too Much Spencer Quinn I am amzed that this series is not wearing thin. I still find it entertaining. 8

Mind Over Murder Allison Kingsley A bookstore novel with a paranormal slant. Nothing really new and different. 7.5

A Sheetcake named Desire Jackalyn Brady Cake decorating this time. 8

Ghost Story Jim Butcher. Audio Not bad but this was not James Marsters 7.5

Misery Bay Steve Hamilton Glad to see Alex McKnight back. 9

In Session with Dr. Morgan Snow M J Rose Kindle. Three short stories - sex therapist deals with Cotton Malone, John Rain and Jack Reacher. 8

The Sweetness at the Bottom of the Pie Alan Bradley
Reread for a book club

The Friday Night Knitting Club Kate Jacobs Book Club "Nice" little visit. 7.5

To Have and to Kill Mary Jane Clark. I have the ARC for book 2 to review. I wanted to read this first. 8

Everything this month was pretty much the same.

I've read 4 on your list. I figured GHOST STORY would suffer with John Glover as the reader this time. He's definitely NO James Marsters! IN SESSION WITH DR. MORGAN SNOW sounds quite interesting!

I really like Don Winslow too. I'm sure The Power of the Dog will make my tops of 2011 list.

I'm really liking Marsters' voice as Harry. If I ever make it that far in the series, I'll have to switch to print for Ghost Story.

Good month, Cheryl!
I wonder why James Marsters wasn't tapped for Ghost Story, that is disappointing. Like Marcy, I might be tempted to switch to print for that one.
I really need to catch up with Don Winslow I really enjoyed California Fire and Life

I am glad you mentioned In Session: Dr. Morgan Snow with Steve Berry's Cotton Malone, Lee Child's Jack Reacher & Barry Eisler's John Rain - it does look quite interesting!
and I loved the new Alex McKnight book from Steve Hamilton too.

I seem to remember reading somewhere that Marsters had something conflicting going on when they needed to record the book and that they had delayed the recording once.

Loved the friday night knitting club. I read the 1st Mary jane clark and got some of the rest at the used book store just haven't gotten to them yet.
