Robin (robinmy) | 1389 comments I haven't updated my reading for over a week, so.....

Last week I finished The Concrete Blonde (Harry Bosch, #3) by Michael Connelly The Concrete Blonde by Michael Connelly. I really enjoyed this one.

This week I read Criminal (Will Trent, #6) by Karin Slaughter Criminal by Karin Slaughter. Definitely not my favorite in the series.

Mara Pemberton (marapem) Okay not at as exciting as the others, but it was nice departure from some of the heavy stuff I have been listening to of late.

Charlene (charlenethestickler) | 798 comments My long, long-requested book came in from the library, so I picked it up last night and read it today: Show No Fear (SEAL Team 12, #7) by Marliss Melton .

I liked it quite a lot, but the cover was definitely not done by someone who read the story. How many times did Lucy comment (in her mind) about Gus's very hairy chest and what it did to her???

The cover model looks waxed. Too bad, :(

Kirsten  (kmcripn) I just started reading Broken Monsters by Lauren Beukes Broken Monsters by Lauren Beukes. I really liked her first book, The Shining Girls by Lauren Beukes The Shining Girls, so I have good hopes for this one.

I will be starting Rapture soon. But I've lost the moment on Troubleshooters (I didn't get last month's read :-( ).

Hopefully I'll catch up in the next couple months.

I am listening to The Girl in 6E (Deanna Madden, #1) by A.R. Torre right now and it's really crazy and twisted and interesting. I just finished The Baller A Down and Dirty Football Novel by Vi Keeland which was a nice light read. I will be finishing up The Ripple Effect (Rhiannon's Law, #3) by J.A. Saare on Kindle then moving on to April....


Kris (My Novelesque Life) (mynovelesquelife) | 9 comments I finished listening to the third and last book in the Grace Valley series Down by the River by Robyn Carr. I am now listening to Out of Control (Book 4) by Suzanne Brockmann.


I am still reading Messenger of Truth by Jacqueline Winspear from March.

I find it rare that the cover matches the description of the characters. It's one of my pet peeves.

Olivia "So many books--so little time."" | 29 comments Just started reading Crazy Love You by Lisa Unger. So far I've been enjoying it--it's about a graphic artists who falls in love with a nanny but can't seem to get away from an old girlfriend who's trouble,

Charlene (charlenethestickler) | 798 comments I just re-read a book I'd read first in March, 2014: The Faithful Spy (John Wells, #1) by Alex Berenson .

It's the first in a series, which I didn't know then, so I am now set to read the second book before I start the group and buddy read books for this month. A very good espionage, Middle East-US setting, with a lot of suspense and history right off the pages. Hard to imagine the author was only about 24 when he wrote this ten years ago!

Everything else gets put on hold for me with the release of The Beast (Black Dagger Brotherhood, #14) by J.R. Ward . I'm reading it now. :)


message 370: by Sheri (new)

Sheri Morell (smorell22) | 2165 comments Finished Listening to Out of Control (Troubleshooters, #4) by Suzanne Brockmann and really enjoyed it. Also finished Rapture in Death (In Death, #4) by J.D. Robb . Now I am thinking it is a good day to listen to another in Death book. I am still home sick with a bad case of the flu and thinking Eve and Roarke is just what I need to feel better. The Question is which book do I listen to. I will have to think about it but I might be leaning towards Brotherhood. I always read the books when they first come out and so I haven't had the opportunity to try the audio version yet.

I finished Code of Silence by Marliss Melton, SEAL Team Twelve #7.5, and it was okay. I wasn't a fan of the heroine in earlier stories and this didn't help. Here's my review.

I'm now reading The Heart of It by Molly O'Keefe. It's a short story that she included in the RAINN anthology and she plans to develop it into a series.

The flu is just awful (don't need to tell you!) and I got a flu shot for the first time this year.


message 388: by Sheri (new)

Sheri Morell (smorell22) | 2165 comments This was the first year I didn't get the shot and it hit me hard. Got my Asthma started which made it worse. So Now I am having to take breathing treatments several times a day. Also on prednisone. I had a steroid shot on Friday when i had my 2nd trip to the doctor.

My Mom is asthmatic and got bronchitis recently. They gave her the same treatment, fortunately catching it before the symptoms showed up (was seeing her pulmonary specialist for something else). Everything aggravates her asthma so I can't even imagine what the flu did to you.
