Real Murders

by Charlaine Harris
- Rated 5 stars
“A delightful cozy mystery set in a small town with a unique club gathering monthly to discuss old murders. Love the small town librarian, Aurora. A copycat murderer is on the loose and Roe pieces all the clues together, but will it be too late? So glad I picked up this series to try by Charlaine. She has not disappointed me yet with any of her books.”

The 7th Victim

by Alan Jacobson
- Rated 3 stars
“Clearly the subject matter was fascinating and deserves 5 stars! I loved the multi task force from cops to FBI. My first book by Alan Jacobson and not my last. I just didn't think he fleshed out the characters enough plus he had to much filler drama going on at once. I look forward to Crush the second book in this series”

Still Alice

by Lisa Genova
- Rated 5 stars
“Superb story written from the patient's viewpoints. I learn, I cried, I laughed and I mourned. Stunning prose! A must read for anyone with a family member diagnosed with on-set Alzheimer's or dementia. A must read for those who might later on experience the effects of this disease somewhere down the road.”

Bobbie Faye's (kinda, sorta, not exactly) Family Jewels

by Toni Mcgee Causey
- Rated 5 stars
“5 stars! Didn't possibly think that book two would be funnier than the first one. I snorted and giggled to the end. What an endless list of characters so bizarre that I was wishing one was my relative. A hoot! Recommend to everyone who needs a good laugh.”

Evil at Heart

by Chelsea Cain
- Rated 5 stars
“Incredible!! Out of the 3 titles, this one is my favorite! A up and coming star for crime, grit, murder and humor! My all time favorite character outside Archie and Gretchen is Susan the reporter. She developed a knack under Archie's wing and is a powerful character within the story. By page 48 my heart was racing until I finished it. Totally Impressed with this Iowa born author! Another 5 star winner”

Sweetheart

by Chelsea Cain
- Rated 5 stars
“Chelsea delivered a sequel that was touching and poignant as one could be with a serial killer loose running around. The amazing prose of such dark regions and yet I couldn't put it down if I tried. 5 star sensation!”

“Rollar Coaster Ride in a day. It's like reading a Stephanie Plum novel but on crack and filled with Southern Charm. Raunchy and laugh out loud humor! Could not put it down!”

Night Sins

by Tami Hoag
- Rated 5 stars
“My Third book by Tami and I was highly impressed with the writing, the characters and the subject matter. Tough subject matter as it could happen to anyone at anytime.... anywhere.

I just knew this book was not the end of the story either and I had it pegged how it would end. Can't wait to read Guilty as Sin.”
