Finished KISS THE GIRLS AND MAKE THEM CRY

 


This was not as "edge of your seat" thrilling as most of Clark's books that I have read.  (Is this her second last book?)  It is so new, it mentioned Biden!  It does methodically describe how everything happened step by step, which I appreciate.  I guessed who the murderer was very early in the story, but there were so many clues to the contrary, I wasn't sure.  There was also painfully few suspects.  Nevertheless, I stayed up very late last night finishing it.

I am now about to start a new Wind River Reservation Mystery, The Drowning Man.  I am looking forward to it.

Finished PEACE TALKS

 



For the first time in the Dresden Files this book does not finish the story.  It ends with a cliffhanger, and will be continued in Battle Ground when Harry and the other allied supernatural inhabitants of Chicago, will battle a strong and evil force lead by a god! In this Peace Talks, Harry has been summoned as security for the peace talks between the united sups and the Fomor (an arrogant race.)  This is complicated by the Wardens entertaining a resolution to expel Harry as a Warden while all his allies are occupied at the peace talks.  As usual, this book contains an exciting and bumpy ride.

I am now about to start Kiss the Girls and Make them Cry by Mary Higgins Clark.  When she died, I decided I'd better finish reading as many of her books as I could find.  I've read a pretty fair amount and was surprised at how many more there were.  I bought all I could find.
