Vicki Tyley (vickityley) | 280 comments I read Beyond Fear late last year and loved it so much, I bought the next two. I have a LOT of reading to catch up on. Gone are the days when I'd worry that I would run out of books to read. :)

I started this last night Brenda- and I had such great discipline - at 100 pages in and it being midnight I chose to stop reading and go to bed. It would have been easy to sit here until I finished this book -a very captivating read but I have a full non reading day today and needed an early start. .

PattyMacDotComma | 816 comments I liked Alafair Burke's new mystery, The Ex 4.5★s worth.

A bed-hopping lawyer is called in desperation to defend her ex on a murder charge. Nah. Not him. He's too nice . . . or is he?

And you may well love it! Lots of people do. I think the characters just haven't grabbed me yet:)

PattyMacDotComma | 816 comments The No. 1 Ladies' Detective Agency. Well, you'd think this might be in the mystery category, and I have to say Mma Ramotswe does indeed solve quite a few mysteries. I loved it. I know I'm late to the party with this, but I did review it.

5★s

message 2046: by PattyMacDotComma (new)

PattyMacDotComma | 816 comments 5★s for a debut mystery, All These Perfect Strangers, by Aussie author Aoife Clifford. She writes well, and her character, Pen, is a fascinating girl.

She's off to college to escape, but things aren't quite as perfect as she'd been led to believe. Very entertaining! My review:

Just starting Dying Light by Stuart MacBride. It's good to get back to this genre. I have been busy with other books but I am always happy to pick up a good crime or mystery
