unfortunately not all the books come with the audio....
I FINALLY finished Secret Harbor by Anna Sullivan, Windfall Island Trilogy #3. It was a good story but a bit too tedious and the mystery took too long to resolve. 3 stars.
I'm now reading Once and Again by Elisabeth Barrett, first book in her new series, Return to Briarwood.

I have this on my TBR and sitting in my kindle!! I will get to it eventually haha.

A few more Jill Shalvis, Animal Magnetism series and it did get even better as it went on!



Went on to the spin off of Julie Kagawa's Young Adult Iron Fey series. I do like them even though they are YA!


Also read the Library big book read. Didn't really like it, thought it was kind of dull.

Grippando writes really good stories. Need to get back to him.

I'm collecting the audiobooks for the Animal Magnetism series. Glad you're enjoying.

The book has some gruesome scenes. But the author is really good at breaking them up with a good dose of humor and wit.

Took me a bit as I read A New Hope by Robyn Carr, Thunder Point #8, a few weeks ago, but here's my review.




Here's my review of On My Knees by J. Kenner, Stark International #2. No one is more surprised than me that I'm enjoying this series. Maybe listening to it is making a difference:)


I just finished Once and Again by Elisabeth Barrett, the first book in her new Return to Briarwood series, and very much enjoyed the story. It's not your typical second chance story and there's a strong secondary cast of characters. Here's my review.
I'm now reading Second Chance Summer by Jill Shalvis, first book in her new Cedar Ridge series.

God! I am so glad that JDR doesn't end her books in cliffhangers!

I'm reading Second Chance Summer, too. Are you enjoying?

I am seriously spooked by you. This is the second book we've both read this week (A New Hope was the other). You don't read Susan Mallery's Fool's Gold series, do you?

I noticed that, too!
I started Fool's Gold a couple of years ago and never made it back to the series, though I have all of the books.

If you had said yes to my question, that would have been a triple play for the week. The third book that came out this week was a Fool's Gold book.




Not sure what to read next"
Why


I finished Hope Burns by Jaci Burton, Hope #3, and it was just okay. I've enjoyed the series to date and this one is the weakest. Not bad...here's my review.
I also finished reading The Maid's Quarters by Holly Bush, Crawford Family #2.5, a sweet, short historical romance.
Lastly, I finished listening to Memory Man by David Baldacci, Amos Decker #1, and loved it! It's one of the few times I was completely stumped through most of the story. The dual narrators gave voice to their characters anytime they had dialogue so that was a bit different but I liked it, as well as dramatic background music at times. 4.5 stars
I'm now reading Hailey's Truth by Cate Beauman, The Bodyguards of L. A. County #3, and listening to Love After All by Jaci Burton, Hope #4. I'm already preferring listening to this series.

I loved The Shadows, Quynh. I really like the story lines.

- It's hard to say I loved it because it - well, can't say without spoilers - but once again, well-written Karin Slaughter. No one can ever accuse you of sugarcoating anything.
Dawn - Where are you? I remember how upset you were after finishing Beyond Reach...I'm right there with you now. I have already read the first 2 Will Trent & am ready for #3 where the two series merge. So, yes, I'll read on.

I would like to know as well. It's on my TBR list also.

I enjoyed them in the first 2 WT books. Looking forward to book 3. And Sheri - I posted a link to the letter Slaughter wrote to Readers after the release of Beyond Reach in our BOM Karin Slaughter thread. I felt like I understood better after reading it - still not happy but I understand.

I finished listening to Child 44 by Tom Rob Smith a couple of weeks ago but just wrote the review. Loved this story! Here's my review.
