3/5; 3 stars; BWhile not one of the best Tess Gerristen novels I've read, this was still a good story. My favorite aspects of the book were the Chinese mythology and cultural elements that were introduced. I was not impressed with the lack of development in the long term characters and their rela...
*Rating* 4.0*Genre* Mystery/Thriller*Review*The Silent Girl is the ninth installment in the Rizzoli and Isles series by Tess Gerritsen, and as the author writes in her introduction to the story, it is also the first time she's incorporated Chinese Mythology into her storyline with the introduction o...
Ok, so my library now charges $1 for "New Hot Picks!" and this was soooo NOT worth that dollar!I really have enjoyed Gerritsen's writing style...up until this book.I did not like the progression, or lack of progression I should say with the whole Rizzoli & Isles characters.

Maybe it was the plot and its background or the lack of personal backstories combined with the missing aspects of Maura and Jane's friendship? I don't know ...The book wasn't bad, but it wa...

I've read most of these authors previous writings and greatly look forward to new books, Tess Gerritsen is one such author. I recently had the opportunity to read The Silent Girl and am I glad I did.The Sile...
Ahhhhh...Tess is back!! After Ice Cold, I was very concerned that the Rizzoli and Isles duo was never going to come back like Tess had written it before..But she is BACK! This book was awesome. It was classic Tess Gerritsen! I loved this book and wrap it up tomorrow, but, as usual, I could barely pu...
