JackOBotts What would you recommend for a new reader of his work? 4y
Alwaysbeenaloverofbooks @JackOBotts The Quiet Game is a good starter and introduces you to Penn Cage. He‘s in many of the books that follow. As far as stand alones I loved Turning Angel ... 📚 4y
Alwaysbeenaloverofbooks @Reecaspieces yes, most of them are! I‘ve met him twice in Tupelo! He‘s awesome! 4y

Great characters, great thriller, keeps you guessing until the end and lots of sub plots.

CoverToCoverGirl A throughly engaging read...I think I have thing for Penn Cage, he‘s such a multifaceted character. Greg Iles is an extremely gifted writer! 5y
TrishB @CoverToCoverGirl agree totally 👍🏻 5y

Another solid thriller from Iles. I think some people would be put off by some of the subject matter but the story was still very strong with many twists and turns. 4 ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

I‘m at 36 books for the year and I think that will probably be it for me since I doubt I will get another full read in by tomorrow! Didn‘t quite hit my goal but considering I had baby #2 in March i think this is pretty good!

LisaJo This summer I was in Mississippi so I visited Natchez cuz I am a big Greg Iles fan. I even went to the cemetery to visit the Turning Angel in person. If I could post a picture to this feed I would. But, alas, not yet Litsy. I do have a picture of it somewhere in my feed, but it‘s probably a while back. 5y
amywithbooks @LisaJo that‘s so cool! I would love to visit Natchez and see what it really looks like. 5y

I‘m a huge Greg Iles fan. I took a detour on my way to Jackson Mississippi today to visit Natchez. One of the sites I went to see was the Turning Angel in the city cemetery. The statute is mentioned in many of his books. And, obviously by what I have tagged, has its own book.Since it was during the day, I didn‘t get a chance to see if it followed me, which I believe, you can only see at night when car lights are on it.

Reecaspieces Yep! You went...best cemetery ever! I am jealous of this trip. I need to go back 6y
Dragon So cool. I read this book. Thanks for posting the photo. 👍🐉 6y

Nice of you to have birthday cake as the emoji for the day on my birthday! 😂 Used the Birthday part of the theme with Turning Angel, the second 📚 in the excellent Penn Cage series. In this one they are investigating the murder of a girl two weeks before her eighteenth birthday. A great connection with it being the 18th today! #novemberbythenumbers #18 #eighteen

Reecaspieces Great book! And if you ever get a chance...go see the turning angel in person. Pretty neat. The whole cemetery is amazing 6y

I nabbed that copy of Turning Angel on the give-a-book, take-a-book bookcase at the marina. Greg Iles is one of my favorite authors. Didn't think I'd be adding a book to my collection on this trip to the 1000 Islands. I supposed I should have known better.

[DELETED] 2232195534 I love Greg Iles and liked this one very much. Penn Cage is a favorite of mine. 😀 8y
Tav @kaysreadinglife awesome, good to know you give this the thumbs up. Have you read Natchez Burning and 8y
[DELETED] 2232195534 Have read Natchez Burning and am hoarding The Bone Tree until closer to publication date of final book in trilogy. 😀 8y
Tav @kaysreadinglife wise idea because now I have to re-read both books to remember what happened. 8y
