Chosen from Team 2
Book: The Best Corpse for the Job
Author: Charlie Cochrane
Pages: 266/GR
How it fits: Janine's Post
Date finished: 2020/10/25
Rating/Review: 5 stars

This was a fantastic murder mystery with a great set of MC's and secondary characters. I usually have a hard time reading these kind of books because I'm figuring out the bad guys way too early but not this time. The book took me on a journey full of twists and turns and I questioned basically every single secondary character.

Both of the MC's were great. I loved Adam and Robin and I can't wait to follow them on their journey. Not that I have a lot of time for a new series but, well...


message 921: by Gustaf (new)

Gustaf | 1936 comments It worked!!

Book:Red Heir by Lisa Henry
Red Heir (Adventures in Aguillon Book 1) by Lisa Henry

Review:
Not my favorite book. If I had not read Tales From Verania I may have liked this but it was to close. The silliness and a lot of the characters were very closely related. The book ends in a wedding? Why? Where is this great romance ending in marriage. I didn't see it. It was just a madcap romp with no true romance and no originality.
