This book has a strong sense of place and sometimes insightful writing, but overall it needed more editing. I also didn‘t find the story very satisfying for many reasons. Apparently the following books in the series feature a different main character who‘s more compelling than the guy in this book, but even so I don‘t think I‘ll read any further.
In any case #Montana is done and there are only a few states left! #52mysteries
1. Haircut, ballgame
2. Trees, apartments, parking lot
3. Maryland USA. It‘s a little muggy!

so-soAlthough fiction, the tone of this book is more dour than other park ranger/warden books I have read. I'm not sure I would have finished it if I wasn't listening to it on audio. The main character was not compelling and I didn't feel attached to his story. There is also extreme violence against dogs at 3 parts in this book that I did not expect and totally hated. I don't think I will continue with this series.
These arrived yesterday, @TheAromaofBooks. I spent the evening going through Celine and enjoying everyone's comments. 💛 What fun!

pickI had some trouble rating this book because the book itself can't quite seem to decide what it wants to be. It‘s also not exactly a novel, but somewhere in between. A novel with some thriller aspects. A slow-paced suspense with a lot of backstory. A spy story not about the spy at all. A missing person case with a long explanation as to why the detective takes on missing person cases. Something like that. The point is, I really enjoyed it. But⬇
I‘m posting one book a day from my massive collection. No description, no reason for why I want to read it (some I‘ve had so long I don‘t even remember why!). Feel free to join in!

January 4 #NewYearNewBooks HighwayCRV This is such a good tv series. Never read the book @Eggs @Alwaysbeenaloverofbooks
Just finished up my December #LMPBC. My first Heller book, and I enjoyed it. Won‘t go into detail as I want to preserve surprises for my group. 😉
I‘ll be getting this out in the mail after Christmas.
pickAfter reading August, I knew I would have to check this book out. Dog Run Moon is the first short stories book I have read. “Off The Track“ and “In Hindsight“ I absolutely love Callan Wink. His stories are so easy to read, yet so illustrative and intricate, and his characters are so simple, yet so deep and philosophical. He seems to have such a good understanding of the basic desires and thrills of human beings.
so-soMeh, I enjoyed the mystery part of it, not so much the romance. I also had similar feelings for the first book in this series. But it‘s now off my physical TBR and on the donate pile. Also it was a #randomshelfpick for the #rushathonchristmaschallenge
