back to the library

Once I finished "Christmas Cookie Murder" by Leslie Meier, I needed to return the books I had to the library. Now I'm into the stack of books a friend sent me. This should keep me going for the summer. I've got to mention that the "Christmas Cookie Murder" turned out to be a little more suspenseful than I remember her previous books. Lucy Stone, the main character, had a really close call in this thriller.

It has been a long time since I have read anything by Sandra Brown. "Hello, darkness" has my interest peeked already. She seems to have already introduced all the players. From what was written on the inside flap of the cover, I'm already wondering "who the suspect" might be. Sheesh! And I've only just begun. No peeking! I have trouble looking at the end of the book when I can't stand the suspense any longer. That might ruin it for some people, but they still have to catch 'em. That's just as exciting as "who done it"! At least in my "book" anyway.

Hope everyone enjoys the 4th of July weekend. Stay safe.. ..

moving on . . .

Finished "The Sixth Target" while I was doing laundry on Monday. There were so many things going on in that book, multiple shootings on the ferry, child kidnapping and slaughters in an apartment building. The shooter on the ferry turned himself in so there was a court trial. All four of members of "The Women's Murder Club" were involved. I'm glad it was a fast read 'cause I couldn't figure out how the title of the book came to be. It's a clincher until the end I tell ya'. I'm looking forward to the seventh book.

Just started "Christmas Cookie Murder" by Leslie Meier. Her books are so delightful to read. Lucy Stone (main character) is a normal housewife who can't help herself. If she doesn't stumble across the body, she's looking for "who done it".

Once I'm finished with this book, I have a box full of books that a BFF sent to me. I won't need to visit the library for a long while. Happy trails . . . . reading
