This is the first book in a mystery / romance series. It is a sweet little story that pulls at the heartstrings. The mystery part unravels a bit fast but isn't completely obvious throughout the story. An easy but very good read.

This graphic novel series is amazing. I’m so glad it’s not exactly like the series. I’m really into this series.

newly discovered author, i have heard of her , but never got around to reading, until now! will read other books by this author. great book. kept me guessing until the very end!

This book is the first in a proposed series. Taking place in the Grand Canyon National Park, a young girl is kidnapped and held for ransom. Her new step-father must hike into the Canyon and retrieve a long-hidden stash of Anasazi treasure. Lots of plot twists and somewhat exciting. Hopefully subsequent books in the series will be even better.

4 bright stars for another enjoyable book by Craig Johnson. All the familiar characters are here: Henry Standing Bear, native Cheyenne owner of the Red Pony bar Walt Longmire, Absaroka County Sheriff Victoria Moretti, Walt's under sheriff and sometime lover Ruby, Absaroka County dispatcher This book is #16 in the series, and I recommend that you read them in order, as the book refers to incidents in previous books. The book centers on a famous painting "Custer's Last Fight." Millions of copies of this painting were distributed by beer maker Anheuser-Busch. It was supposedly destroyed in a fire in 1946. But then a resident of the Veterans' Home of Wyoming dies and Walt is called in by the director Carol because she found a shoe box with $1 million in cash in Charley Lee Stillwater's room. Walt searches the room and finds a painting proof that looks like it is connected to the supposedly destroyed "Custer's Last Fight." Unraveling the mystery of the million dollars and the painting leads Walt into a dangerous game of cat and mouse with killers. He does solve the case with help from Victoria and residents of the Veterans' Home. There are laugh out loud lines in this book, Walt and Henry discussing Custer: Walt: "Custer was a dashing and flamboyant commander..." Henry; "A devious and irrational bundle of manic depression who finished last in his class at West Point---in short a horse's ass." Both my wife and I enjoy this series. I read this library book in 2 days.

A serial killer let out of appeal. What he doesn't know is that Micky Haller has a detective following him only to discover whatis suspected all along. The killer, Jessup, is up to something bad. Int he end, he finally shows exactly what he's up to. It does not end well.

4 stars for a solid addition to this excellent historical mystery series. It is set in London, January, 1814. Alexi Sauvage has introduced Hero Devlin to a 8 months pregnant wife of a recently impressed cooper. Her husband was snatched of the street by a Royal Navy press gang. She is desperate need of food and coal. Hero and her friend Alexi assist her in the successful birth of her child. They are returning to Hero's carriage when they stumble upon the body of a woman. Hero recognizes her as Jane Ambrose, piano teacher to Princess Charlotte, the Regent's daughter. She sends word to her husband, Sebastian St Cyr, Viscount Devlin. Sauvage has told Hero that the body was moved after death, due to the lack of blood from the wound. Devlin decides to investigate what was either a murder or manslaughter. However, the Palace does not want this classed as a murder, because it would embarrass the Royal family. The authorities announce that she died as a result of a fall, hitting her head. Devlin angers some powerful people by investigating and is attacked. He does solve the murder. There are many suspects with twists and turns in the plot. I was not sure of who the killer was until near the end. I like that the author incorporates the use of terms in use in 1814 London: Footpad=robber cutpurse=thief Description of Hero's clothes: "Unable to use her carriage in the snow-filled streets and scorning sedan chairs, she pulled on demi-broquins of fine morocco lined with fur, wrapped herself in a fur trimmed pelisse with a matching Swedish hat fastened up on one side, and walked." The author discusses the plight of the poor, compared with the rich and the inequities of limited suffrage, and limitations placed upon talented women in Regency Britain. I recommend that you read this series in order, as there are developments in Devlin's personal life throughout the series.

I did not realize how many towns existed across the U.S. I was also concerned that they lasted for so long.

This book was not as good as Uprooted was but it was still well written. It was written in multiple different view points, which I think added to the story but there were times when it was hard to tell which person was narrating the story. I've also found that while most of her plot lines are well developed, her romance plot lines are not. They feel out of place and like they just put that as an afterthought. It felt abrupt and unnecessary to the plot, and took away from the magic of the story. Overall though it was a good book, and it's good if you ignore the poorly written romance

Not my favorite book of hers at all. Very dry and kind of sad. The book didn’t seem to have much of a plot instead concentrating on a parking spot for the first half of the book. Uninteresting to me.
