My favorite Cotton Malone book to date!
May was a good reading month for me.
Other high points for the month were:
The Masterpiece by Fiona Davis
Notorious RBG : The Life and Times of Ruth Bader Ginsberg
My #May book for #12BooksFor2023 is The Bishop‘s Pawn. An excellent Cotton Malone thriller centred around what happened in Martin Luther King‘s final days. Always love Cotton Malone books but this is one of the very best and learned a lot about Martin Luther King in this book. This reads exceptionally well as a standalone even though it is a book in a series.
pickI have always loved Steve berry‘s books. They have plenty of action but what I love most is how the author explains what points were real and what points he twisted into fiction. I always end up stopping and looking up particular facts or places or people. I always learn something from@his books

BOOK 1 DONE ✅
pickI love the Cotton Malone books and this one didn‘t disappoint. This one covered the assassination of Martin Luther King, and I feel I learnt a lot more about MLK in this book.
Some interesting theories presented in this book, and as usual Steve Berry wraps it in a great thriller story, with plenty of action. This covers Cotton‘s first mission so this also added interest.
I do recommend this series. @Bluebird @EadieB

History notes that the ugly feud between J. Edgar Hoover and Martin Luther King, Jr., marked by years of illegal surveillance and the accumulation of secret files, ended on April 4, 1968 when King was assassinated by James Earl Ray. But that may not have been the case.
bailedI‘ve enjoyed other books in this series, but this one just didn‘t hold my attention so back to the library it goes!
#HubbysStack has caught my eye 👀 He‘s in middle of all three books - a #TrueLitten 😁I‘ve got my own stack going #MoodyReaderAlert 🚨🚨🚨
I have a dilemma I‘m setting up a new reading journal for 2023 and can‘t decide which one to go with - the first one has stars on the corners of each page which is nice but does reduce space to write and the middle one is quite a bit larger and also pretty - I very much like them all - any opinions/votes which one I should choose. Thanks. 😊
