Having read Sloan's first novel, Mr. Penumbra's 24-Hour Bookstore, I knew to expect something quirky, but this one is more bizarre than I thought. It's only around 6 hours on audio but felt longer. I liked the parts about Lois learning to make sourdough bread and how it invigorates her. It's when sh...
Virgin River, Book 2 I Picked Up This Book Because: Continue the series. The Characters: John “Preacher” Middleton: Paige Lassiter: Christopher, Jack, Mel, David, Mike, Liz, Rick, Brie The Story: So I went into this story thinking it was going to be Pracher’s book however its a lot more than...
I read Robin Sloan's previous book, and I liked it a lot so naturally, I was looking forward to reading Sourdough. I didn't know a lot about Sourdough (compared to the books in the previous novel) but have googled a bit since then, but it sounded fascinating. It was a really nice read. The author cl...
This one started out kind of slow. The first 1/4 of the book seemed like background setup and character development (which is ok, but not what I usually expect from Patterson). Once new murders started and the flashback scenes began, the pace picked up. I wasn't sure who the killer was - I knew who ...
I’ve been a fan of the Welcome to Night Vale podcast for a while (although I’m woefully behind at the moment), so I was very excited when this book was first announced. I’ve owned it in two different formats since it first came out in 2015, but I kept putting off reading it because I couldn’t decide...
Review originally posted at RabidReads.com. I’ve been struggling with reading books lately. My attention span is very low for some reason. I can’t really sit down and read for more than an hour before I start finding something to distract myself. So, I decided to try the last book in th...
This book started out strong, then degenerated into a mess as it kept adding characters and wandering aimlessly between storylines. First it was a pretty effective 1st person POV story of a young woman who is experiencing the gradual dissolution of her known world through the progression of Alzheime...
So I took a break after listening to Shelter Mountain. But with all the new year challenges going on, decided to do use this series as my Series That Never Ends Challenge. There are so many books in the series, and I have quite far to go. So with the New Year upon us, I dived back into Virgin River...
I appear to be hit or miss with Charline Harris. I love her Shakespeare series but the Sookie Stackhouse series, despite interesting aspects, I've never really warmed to. After listening to the first book in this series, I'm not sure where it will fall on that scale. Aurora Teagarden is a libraria...
I have seen so many people rave over this series that it has been on my TBR list for a long time. When I saw this book in audio format, I quickly grabbed it to give it a chance. I was pleased to recognize the name of the narrator, Thérèse Plummer. She did an excellent job on another series I read, s...
