As a reader, I am definitely on the Frederick Backman bandwagon as I have read most of his books. I like his style of writing. When I saw this book in my Kindle as something I might like, I was intrigued and threw it in my To Be Read list. A few minutes later, I…
I didn’t even know Moon wrote a book, until my wife sent me a text about it. I was definitely intrigued as I know she is Frank Zappa’s older daughter, and I sort of figured because of that, she must’ve had an interesting life. I will admit and tell you I gave this book two…
This is the first Spenser book written after Parker’s death. For his other books where other authors have continued his characters, I couldn’t tell a difference in the writing style. I guess that is good, and it was the same for this one. Spenser is hired by a 14 year old girl who needs his…
After I finished all the Jesse Stone and Sunny Randall books, also by Robert Parker (and others after he passed away in 2010), I started the first book in the Spenser series in January of 2024. Flash forward to today, and I have now read all the Spenser books that were written by Parker. All…
I got this book from Netgalley, so I can read and review it before it’s published. I am a fan of the NBA, but I will admit, that I have never heard of Michael Ray Richardson. So, when I saw this in the Netgalley catalog, I was intrigued and checked it out. Michael was a…
While I was waiting for Spenser, book number 36 at the library, also by Robert Parker, I decided to start another of his series. I have already read all the Jesse Stone and Sunny Randall books, and I like his style of writing. Appaloosa is a western town where the police Marshall has been shot…
I have had this book in my want to read list since April. It’s Lisa Marie’s words, but her daughter, Riley, had to finish it as Lisa passed away before it could be completed. Because of that, I sometimes had to stop reading it and think about whose words was I reading at that moment….
I got this book from Netgalley, so I can read and review it before it’s published. I was intrigued by this one as Curtis was a professional baseball player, but he was born with deafness. I have actually heard of him, and think it was when he played for the Detroit Tigers. As a baseball…
I was a bit skeptical about reading this book, as I wasn’t sure I would enjoy her story. I had had no clue her parent’s marriage was arranged. I had no clue who father was a spy in the Chinese government, and because of that, that is how her family was able to migrate to…
We have finally finished the FunJungle series. For this last book, Niko read a little bit on his own, and it was actually a very climatic part where Teddy Fitzroy solves a crime and tells us who did it. It was funny because Niko kept telling us about it! I truly enjoyed reading these books…
