I'm reading Name Withheld by J.A. Jance

[Tay]

Finished . A very good read. Now reading

[aPriL does feral sometimes]

Nena -Alex Delaware is my one of my secret and dubious likes, and not every day. Depends kinda on if I've been almost killed in traffic......

[Jannene]

I just finished . This was a good read. I enjoyed how the story line went and how everything got tied in at the end. The characters were developed you really end up liking the main character, Harry Bosch. I never had anticipated the conclusion. I was taken by surprise. I will definitely read the next one.

Still reading Dorchester Terrace and U think this is Perry's strongest book in years. Have also started Nevermore and since I love Doyle, Houdini, and Poe I am expecting good things.

Shadow Man is excellent. I am only into it 56 pages and find it top notch. Whew!

Just finished Cover Her Face by P.D. James. A trip into the past for me, as it was a re-read, and it was published in 1962, so we are just about the same age ;-)

It was just as good the second time round.

I really like this series. Not too many authors manage to do more than one series that end up on my 'auto buy' list for everything they write but Sandford is one of them.

I'm putting this on my tbr list. I've read other Harry Bosch books but not this one.

[Renee]

Hm, great minds? I'm starting The Black Ice, after finishing A Fatal Thaw. I'm still savoring my way through The Law of Angels.

[Steffi]

currently reading Pastworld by ian beck

[Tim]

100 pages into Shadow Man . It is superb. I am happy to discover a new-to-me writer, Cody McFadyen, who so completely engrosses me with writing excellence through his characters, as well as the plot line. I will review this one for sure; for now I am savoring the unfolding of a fine book.

[Diane S ☔]

Love Smokey Barrett! Finished and so happy that once again I have really enjoyed a Thomas Pitt book. Have just started the new Coben, .

[Erin]

I'm reading the Charlie Fox books by Zoë Sharp. Halfway thru First Drop. Love this series!

[Max]

Just finished a Nero Wolfe novel

I like the Rex Stout's style and character. But I'm wondering if any of his fans can recommend one of his best books, mean one with a waterproof plot.

I really enjoyed reading Pursuit, I hope you enjoy listening to it :)

[Bill]

I'm currently reading an early Irene Kelly mystery, by Jan Burke and am enjoying already. Also reading by Ken Follett. I enjoyed the mini-series a couple of years ago and so far it's bringing back good memories.

That Virgil never disappoints. (smile)

I'm still on the Louise Penny train having just completed and getting ready to start . I believe Armand Gamache to be the kindest, most endearing protagonist in this genre that I've ever come across. I just love him. Also, when I need a little break, I've picked up Ace Atkins' and all I can say is WOW! (laughing) I decided this year that I would read all the Edgar nominees, and this is the first one I've started. He's a new author for me, and, so far, he appears to be frankly amazing.

[D.G.]

Just finished which was simply amazing. I'm not crazy about books with assassins as main characters but the author nailed it with this one. And the narrator did an amazing job.

I haven't read this new Ace Atkins but I love his "series" on corrupt cities.

Tim, have you tried any Jo Nesbo? I just finished The Snowman and it was excellent. If you like police procedurals, give this one a shot.

[Gatorman]

Just finished and liked it a lot, gave it 4 stars. Now reading .

[Michael]

I'm reading . First time with this author, but probably not the last.

[Christiana]

The last mystery novel I've read is The Distant Hours by Kate Morton, and I gave it four stars. Things I liked about this book: The author can write beautifully, creating interesting characters and an atmosphere of mystery and suspense. It’s easy to lose yourself in the story.
Things I didn’t like in the book: The pace was really slow and the whole thing could use a good editing. The author got a bit carried away with constructing beautiful images and long descriptions, at the expense of the story.
After reading mostly non-fiction books and greek literature, I'm now back to reading mystery novels, and The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo is going to be next - finally!

[Steffi]

just finished Pastworld by ian beck, was an ok read. now going to start with Last Rites by neil white

[Tim]

thanks for the tip, Gatorman. I will put Snowman on my to read list.

I just read that a few weeks ago. It was really good!

I've been looking for Babel by Barry Maitland for years. Everywhere I looked it was out of print. Then today I found it on kindle! So I started that tonight.

I was having trouble skipping over it. So, now, my Barry Maitland world is back in stasis and I am back to reading in order.

[TK421]

I just recently finished The Bridge of Deaths by M. C. V. Egan. It's part historical mystery, part historical research, part romance, and part paranormal. A real genre-bending book if there ever was one.

If you're interested, you can find my review here. I've also got an interview with the author and a giveaway going on for a paperback copy of the book.

[DJ =^^=]

I just started Deadly Stillwater. First book to read by this author. It's a freebie on Amazon.

I have to agree about the pages being to long and not just in this genre."

She is one of my favorite authors too. :) Haven't read that book yet. I like the Flynn brothers trilogy.

[Georgia]

Dear D>G> Shameless Hussy, Just love John Rain and have read & Liked both books. Now I am reading the Third book by Philip DePoy A Minister's Ghost. The first Book
Devil's Hearth was quite good. I had mentioned it before on a thread. This series features Fever Devlin who is a professer of Folklore; who came from Appalachia; and who solves crimes which all relate in some way to superstitions and fears that people have especially in rural areas. I like the series, but maybe some may not. That is the adventure of reading, n'est-ce pas????????????

[Diane S ☔]

Finished Stay Close and it was another good Coben, Gave it 4 stars. Now reading an ARC of Phantomand also When Maidens Mourn.

[D.G.]

Georgia - I just requested Hard Rain from the library. I'm usually never in a rush to read books in a series but I cannot stop myself with this one!

It is so good, I am on the edge of my seat!!! when I first started listening - I did not enjoy it, but I think it was because of the narrator, now I think I have gotten used to her voice, but I am loving this book. Just about done, on disc 9 with one more to go, then on to Justice, which is the 2nd book in the series.

I'm reading a Gutenberg classic: The Mystery of the Yellow Room. It's dated (1908) and the translation from French is a little wonky (The pen of my aunt is on the table of the kitchen), but the story is exciting, the classic locked-room-and-how-did-the-villain-escape story.

Oooh, I wonder if I could find that in French. It sounds like it would be my tasse de thé. Is the title a direct translation?

ETA. I answered my own question by clicking on the link! :)

Here you go, Kim. I'm going to read the second one in French and see how it goes.

Merci bien, mon amie!

I'm also reading a French locked-room mystery at the moment, L'homme au ventre de plomb. It's the second book in a historical series set in Paris in the 1760s.

I've read that novel six or seven years ago and really enjoyed it. Reads like an Arsene Lupin, though much smarter. The author managed a number of exciting situations and the revelation of the antagonist was a pleasing surprise. The explanation was a bit off but that didn't affect my enjoyment. At least that's what I can remember from back then.

[Jennifer]

Closing in on the end of both The Reversal and Jolie Blon's Bounce and enjoying both. Two of my favorite mystery authors. Next up will be Crocodile on the Sandbank .

[Sharon]

Just finished Frozen Assets. Light entertaining read. There is no way I could resist a main character who is a 60-ish single female, overweight and a chocoholic with a wolfhound as a companion ... plus gets shot in the butt!

I'm glad this is the start of a series.

I finished the latest of Rebecca Cantrell's mysteries set in Berlin before WWII, A Game of Lies. This one has Hannah Vogel covering the 1936 Olympic games as an undercover Swiss reporter--and gathering intelligence for the British. It's as thought-provoking and page-turning as her other books. Here's my review.
