Welcome to Litsy!

My first time reading this author. I think he tried to do too much: police procedural, whodunit, friendship drama, family drama... it did not come together so well. Not bad, but an unsatisfying ending. I'm surprised Beth and Kate didn't know each other better (they were "best friends"). I remember 7 accounts of women in footwear and 5 of them were hiking boots, which bothered me (see my previous post). Meh.

These are my hiking boots. They are not clean, nor particularly comfortable, unless I am actually hiking. They are stiff, to prevent my ankles from rolling. The thick soles help keep my feet from feeling rocks. They are clunky.

The author has one woman slipping on hiking boots before putting her feet up to relax, and one is wearing hiking boots with yoga pants (!) while studying. Um, no. So ridiculous.

It‘s bugging me SO MUCH.

A guilty pleasure read. #litsypartyofone

2017 #125 thrilled audio ok this was going on well and then we got to the end it was crap. Well upon reflection, it could have been good but like gone girl just got me annoyed. Flat annoyed.

I didn't care for this book. Very long and drawn out. Kept at it hoping the ending would be good. Alas, this was not the case. 😥Still love the author and will read him again!

The moment you open the new book by one of your favorite authors and realize it's not the next in your wonderful series. But the villainous stand alone novel that they mistakenly thought you'd want to read instead. And read it I will and fabulous it will be. But oh how I miss you Dismas Hardy and Abe Glitsky!!!😩😥🤧😭

Came home from a long day to find that I won a giveaway!! Can't wait to read this, it sounds right up my alley. #bookmailisthebest #instantgoodmood

I got more book mail! Thanks to Shelf Awareness and Atria Books. My shelves runneth over. Literally,

It is hard reading something you know will sell a bunch of copies, but just isn't connecting. This was the case w/Fatal for me. A woman sleeps with a man and is best friends w/a cop. The man is partners with her husband and both are Desert Storm vets along w/a third partner. The man gets stalkery and one day a terrorist attack happens. Weeks later (after all survive), the man washes dead upon the shore. The cop must investigate.

I am 70% done with this book and I am to the point I just want this to end. It is sort of a hot mess, yet kind of interesting too. It is one that just feels long though. Because it is a review book, I will power on.

You know that moment that you are reading about a woman who cheats on her husband with a man cheating on his wife, when he gets all obsessive and stalkery and then terrorists blow up a building. I didn't until this book. My reaction was- Wait? What!?! Well, that was different.
