The Rom-Commers by Katherine Center
A mixed bag for me, though it does work as a light read.

Marianne (cloggiedownunder) | 9985 comments Gus and the Missing Boy may be aimed at the young adult reader, but Troy Hunter's debut had this almost-seventy-year-old reader enthralled. 5★s

PattyMacDotComma | 3310 comments I thoroughly enjoyed the one-hour audio of Don Winslow's short story, Dietrich, narrated perfectly by award-winning actor Ed Harris. It's the Son of Sam summer in NYC, 1977, so it's hard to find spare cops to investigate the murder of a homeless man.
