Wonderful Wordy Wednesday

Photo bomb by my favorite furry guy.  

We went from nice spring to summer weather last week, then Sunday came with cold rain and into Monday snow showers locally. People in western Wisconsin had 6-12 inches of snow in some places. Good days to curl up with a cat and book.  


No Way Out a thriller by Andrea Kane. A teacher is worried about one of her students who happens to be the son of the mayor.

A Perilous Perspective the latest Lady Darby book. Someone seems to have replaced priceless art works with some not so good fakes. Someone who knows something is killed. The killer wasn't who I though it would be!

A Green and Ancient Light is a Sci-Fi / Fantasy book and an genre I usually don't read. But this was an interesting story of a young boy sent to live with his grandmother in the country during the war. His adventures in the woods discovering a sacred grove of ruins.

Good Girl, Bad Girl a therapist, Cyrus Haven, gets involved with helping one institutionalized teen, when asked to help research why another teen is killed. The killed teen is a promising figure skater and a supposed good girl. Did she go bad? The other girl Evie seems to be hiding her past. Why?

The Cartographers is a story of a daughter trying to understand why her father died and the meaning of what appears to be an ordinary old gasoline station road map. Lots of twists and I found it interesting.

Sandy Hook is written by a New York Times reporter who looks into the continued abuse of the families of the murdered children by Alex Jones and other deniers. Book was written before the latest court case verdicts against Jones.

Mother Daughter Traitor Spy, from the author of the Maggie Hope series. Mom and daughter take on infiltrating the German American Bund in Los Angeles, which is a cover for Nazi operations. 


 


Happy Reading.

  1. I read "The Cartographers" and was really surprised at the direction the story took; a good read, for sure.
    My library app dropped an audiobook into my queue yesterday: I was the first one to get the newly released book...woot!
    And I've already finished it and sent it to the next person in line.
