message 806: by Rosalyn (new)

Rosalyn | 33 comments Emotional, enthralling, hold your breath recounts of collegiate regattas, boys toughened by hardscrabble lives in the relative wild of the Pacific Northwest, yet still optimistic and single-mindedly determined to reach somewhere within themselves, an Olympic title just a pitstop along the way to achieving the spiritual goals of fellowship, community, trusting others and challenging yourself, and feeling personally fulfilled.

Rosalyn | 33 comments description

This is the most cerebral and intricately plotted mystery book I've ever read. Reminded me of the movies Tenet and Momento, both by Christopher Nolan, in that the time travel / reliving the same day is one in which the future can affect past actions, and the breadcrumb trail goes every which way, but somehow fall into place at the end.

Stacy Alexander | 2 comments I’m currently reading The Boys of Biloxi by John Grisham. In early December, upon boarding a cruise ship, I read The Wager by David Gann, author of Killers of the Flower Moon. Just a little light reading about a shipwreck! Lol. I’ve got a couple Sarah Maas books waiting. Then I’ll be checking out recommendations.

Thanks Mark. All fixed:)

PattyMacDotComma | 585 comments Charles Dickens is known for many things, but this spooky story about a railroad worker seems different to me. The Signal-Man could easily have been a Twilight Zone episode.

PattyMacDotComma | 585 comments The Tilt, by excellent Aussie author Chris Hammer, is the second in this rural mystery series, but it would be just as good as a standalone. Homicide detectives in small towns are up against generations of feuds and loyalties.

Alice | 109 comments I finished Death Below Stairs by Jennifer Ashley and very much enjoyed it. I liked our main character Kat Halloway a lot. Lots of spunk. Also enjoyed of cooking techniques in 1881. Looking forward to reading book 2 in the series.

Ruhani (ruhaniw) | 2 comments My first psychological thriller of the year is The Suicide House (Rory Moore/Lane Phillips, #2) by Charlie Donlea The Suicide House by Charlie Donlea. I tend to read a lot of psychological thrillers and sometimes the stories are so similar that I get them mixed up after reading. This has a different story and kept up my interest. The twist at the end was good as well. This is the first book I read by this author and looking forward to reading more of his books
