My review for
The Honourable Thief by Meaghan Wilson Anastasioshttps://www.goodreads.com/review/show...
Finished Beastly Deluxe Edition (last night) & The Statistical Probability of Love at First Sight (very early this morning)...Now listening to Warbreaker by Brandon Sanderson
I finished Murder at the Vicarage by Agatha Christie and a romance novella, The Soldier's Kiss by Patricia McLinn this week. Now I am devoting my attention to finishing The Nightingale by Kristen Hannah.
I've been reading The Underground Railroad by Colson Whitehead and listening to Leverage in Death by J.D. Robb
I am at the 62% read mark on the second 87th Precinct novel.
The Mugger by Ed McBain. This novel does not feature Steve Carella. Steve is otherwise occupied following the events in the first novel. This novel features Detectives Hal Willis, Meyer Meyer and patrol officer Bert Kling.the book is a quick read and I may finish it tonight.
Currently reading Leverage in Death and enjoying it. I'm about halfway through and so far its another great addition to the series.

What I love about the In Death books, besides the fact they are well written, is there are usually one or two scenes where I laugh out loud. They aren't funny books, dealing with murder and mayhem as they do, but I still find myself giggling hysterically at least once or twice during a book, usually by some comment from Eve.
Same :) The humour is dry - and yes, it's Eve and her comments to Peabody, and sometimes Roarke, which make me laugh :)
Saving Fish from Drowning did finally become more "readable" after about 70-80 pages so, I did finish it but I feel it was nothing like the other Amy Tan books I've read. It just wasn't that lovely, enjoyable read that I'm used to from her.Then I needed something to recover so I read The Wedding Date, Agatha Raisin and the Witches' Tree and Charlotte's Web. Now reading The Lighthouse Keeper's Daughter.
Just finished Dog Tags, by David Rosenfelt. It’s a mystery series, but not truly a cozy. Great book, especially if you enjoy stories with dogs.
Through the Fire by Katie Ruggle 4-StarsTaunt Suspense and a Sweet Romance
My Review: https://www.goodreads.com/review/show...
Reading The Naked Sun by Isaac Asimov. This is part of the Robot Trilogy. Some how I haven't read this in order since I read I, Robot and then The Caves of Steel years ago.
Four Relentless Days by Elle James 4-StarsGreat, short, romantic-suspense
My Review: https://www.goodreads.com/review/show...
I started reading Sins of the Fathers by Ruth Rendell. I don't qualify it as a cozy but some of you might.

The potty-mouth writing really turns me off too. It's not very original, kinda like real life people who never matured beyond junior high.
