Apples Never Fall is the latest from Aussie author Liane Moriarty. It's a family tree of tennis players, the kind of varied group of characters she's so well-known for. I wish I'd liked it better.

Finished After Dark, My Sweet by Jim Thompson. Thompson was so good at putting readers in the head of dark, twisted characters. 4/5

Addressing the political mystery of why an educated Russian populace has accepted Putin despite economic stagnation and repression of dissidents -
the nonfiction Putin v. the People: The Perilous Politics of a Divided Russia by Samuel A. Greene

It also provides deeper info about the Crimean annexation and "prisoner of conscience" Alexei Navalny

Family is the first in Owen Mullen's new Glass Family series. Two crime families vie for supremacy, but don't think the Glass siblings are the good guys!

A Dead Man in Athens by Michael Pearce

Seymour of Special Branch #3, OK to read as a stand-alone but probably best to read the 1st in the series 1st. It's 1912. Seymour of the Yard is sent to Athens because someone has poisoned the Sultan's cat. Is this a training exercise for someone to poison the Sultan himself? The series is light and fun with a bit of history and geography added. I like the series and this entry is so far the best. 4 stars, highly recommended.

Now starting IN PALE BATTALIONS by Robert Goddard. This is one of his mystery/thriller stand-alone novels from the late 80’s. A few weeks ago I read his novel LONG TIME COMING (2010) and really enjoyed it, so I thought I would sample some of his earlier stuff.

The Shape of Water, not so much

I wish those were available in digital format along with the books he wrote as Madeleine Brent

and to stay on topic, I finished reading the three Caleb Zelic books (Book 1 was one of the BOTM books) by Emma Viskic and thought they were pretty good

I found the series at a Rotary Club Book Sale a few years back.. Well, most of them. I've had to order the remainder to get the whole series.

Dead Meat by William Tapply

Brady Coyne #5, OK to read as a stand-alone. Brady does a favor for an old client and goes up to Maine to check out the possible sale of the fishing camp there. I like the series and this one was fine but certainly nothing special.

[PattyMacDotComma]

I'm loving the Monkeewrench series by P.J. Tracy, thanks to all the readers who recommended them. Dead Run is chock-a-block with nail-biting thrills!
4.5★ Link to my Dead Run review

[PattyMacDotComma]

The Last Thing to Burn by Will Dean is confronting, excellent suspense told by a captive Vietnamese 'bride'. I don't know how he did it, but she sounds real!
4.5★ Link to my review of Last Thing to Burn

Put a Lid on It by Donald Westlake

What a treat, I found a Westlake I'd never read. Like Christmas morning. Meehan, being a professional burglar, is in jail. Some political types get him out to help in their campaign. It doesn't go like they had planned. I love the way Westlake writes. 4 stars.

[Christine]

I finished my 70th book

[CBRetriever]

I finished my 174th book and the last mystery one was The Ice Hotel by Hania Allen on August 19th which was pretty good.

I also finished a 5 book Fantasy series ending with Crown of Renewal by Elizabeth Moon today which was excellent.
