I really love mysteries so this challenge was really enjoyable! Shakespeare's Landlord was really nice read, I liked about the town and atmosphere. I read also fiction books, not mysteries, but My Not So Perfect Life was sooo fun! Every Secret Thing was something that I was already seen as a film. But the book was so good read, and I didn't remember the most important things. Third Degree was unbelievable compelling read. David Baldacci's book was also quit a page-turner.
Thank you so much for this challenge!
