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 got this one from Netgalley, so I can read and review it before it’s published. I chose this as the description looked interesting, it’s a story of a young baseball fan’s misadventures after getting locked inside a pro baseball stadium on the eve of the biggest game of the season. Timothy “Pumpsie” Strickland is…
This book has been in my Want to Read list since May in Goodreads. I have never watched That 70’s Show, but I knew of his character he played. I was intrigued and wanted to learn more about him. Unlike a lot of other memoirs I have read (and, there are a lot), his life…
I have had this book in my Want to Read list on Goodreads since May, so I was eager to read it. I knew of Eric Roberts (by way of Julia Roberts, his younger sister). I had no clue his parents were at one point in his early life co-founded the Atlanta Actors and Writers…
