I finally got my hands on a copy of
and realized immediately that I'd read it before I joined Goodreads. Of course, having fibro fogs (=memory loss), I didn't remember the details. Maybe I will this time long enough for the group discussion :-)
I finished reading Riders by Veronica Rossi. Here's my review.
I'm now starting Allegiant by Veronica Roth.
I finished Her Safe Harbor by Holly Bush, Crawford Family #3, and it was outstanding. Here's my review.
I'm now reading Running Blind by Cindy Gerard, One-Eyed Jacks #3.

This week I read
Show No Fear by Marliss Melton. Another good addition to the Navy SEALs Team Twelve series.My review: https://www.goodreads.com/review/show...
I also read
Tangled Up In You by Rachel Gibson. This is an enjoyable contemporary romance which is part of both Gibson's Truly, Idaho series and her Writer Friends series.My review: https://www.goodreads.com/review/show...
I finished listening to
Harry Potter and the Sorcerer's Stone by J.K. Rowling. I listened to this book on my commute to work and thoroughly enjoyed it. The story is fantastic and the narration by Jim Dale is top-notch. This book made me wish I could just keep driving and driving. My review: https://www.goodreads.com/review/show...
I finished listening to Hidden Bodies by Caroline Kepnes, You #2, and it was great! Here's my review.
I'm now listening to The Striker by Monica McCarty, Highland Guard #10. This is my first audio experience with this series.

Jonetta, I haven't listened to any of the audios for the Highland Guard series... I'm interested in what you think. Robin,
The Harry Potter series on Audio is so fantastic! I have the last 2 books left to listen to but I'm kinda stalled out so that I finish when book 8 comes out end of July.

There is an 8th book coming out? I had no idea.
Just finished The Face of Death Smokey Barrett Series. I just loved it. Not for the faint of heart but soooo goood! 5 stars all the way!

Thanks Sunny! That's good to know!

I'm getting further behind in Mercy Thompson. I've heard this is a good one.
I loved the Higgins book. I believe it's the last in the series.

I feel like I've been waiting forever for Conor's book! Glad to hear you enjoyed it.
I enjoyed book 1 and 2 so much that I'm jumping right into book 3. I'm starting Whispers Under Ground
as an audiobook. The narrator Kobna Holdbrook-Smith is fantastic.
Last night, I finished Running Blind by Cindy Gerard, One-Eyed Jacks #3, and was underwhelmed. Here's my review.
I'm already about 1/4 into Barefoot with a Bad Boy by Roxanne St. Claire, Barefoot Bay Undercover #3, and loving it.

I finished #3 One-Eyed Jacks today:
. I wasn't quite as underwhelmed as Jonetta, but I thought there was a huge disconnect toward the end. No spoilers here.Since I have Book #4 from our state library system, I'll probably read it soon:
.
So Charlene and Jonetta are 1 and 2 of One eyed Jacks series good, and #3 is just underwhelming or the series as a whole?
I loved the first two books. This third book seemed like it was written by a different author. The main couple behaved like they were in a teenage romance, the dialogue was trite and it was cliche laden. It started wonderfully and digressed. The suspense was good but even that fell short with a hurried climax.
I've got the fourth book in the queue so hopefully this was an anomaly. I do recommend, however, that you read her Black Ops series first. The characters are being drawn from that series.

Thanks, I've had book one of Black ops on my plan past 2 months but haven't gotten to it yet, will eventually.
The new series is a spinoff but I didn't know that before I started it. It wasn't so obvious in the first two books but definitely was in this one.

I'm a few hours in and am enjoying the narration. Typical of most male narrators, his female characters come off a bit odd but not overly so.

I'm beta reading the ninth in a series of cosy mysteries set on the Isle of Man in about 1997. Enjoying it a lot....
I just finished a book for a challenge in another group,
, but I liked it so much that I'm adding the series to my list and immediately moving on to the second book,
. Superheroes in the zombie apocalypse! :-)

I've read several books in her Noble Dead Saga (which I think she co-writes with her husband). Hmmm, that's another series I need to get back to. I haven't tried this one though.

I had heard that #3 in the One Eyed Jacks was so-so. I moved directly to #4 and really liked it.
I'm getting back to the psy-changeling series with
. I've been trying forever to get to book #10,
. Maybe this year is the year.
