It’s been a few weeks (months?) since I’ve updated the
miscellaneous extra books that I’ve finished without reviewing. Here are just a few of them that I deemed
worthy of my little, meaningless spotlight:
- Unseen by Karin Slaughter – 4 stars (If you’re a
fan of crime fiction, you *must* check out Ms. Slaughter’s books. There have been a few random misses along the
way, but for the most part, her books rock!
She definitely ranks somewhere in my list of top 10 favorite authors.)
- The Hit by David Baldacci – 3 stars (Meh – nothing
great here. If you’ve read one Baldacci,
you’ve read ‘em all.)
- The
Perfect Ghost by Linda
Barnes – 2.5 stars (Don’t waste your time.
The description on the back flap is more entertaining than the 300+
pages contained within. *yawn*)
- The
Cuckoo’s Calling by Robert
Galbraith – 3.5 stars (I admit that I drank the kool aid on this one. Once the cat was out of the bag that Mr.
Galbraith is actually Ms. J.K. Rowling, I just *had* to have it. It was a decent read, but certainly nothing
earth shattering. I could take it or
leave it. That said, the kindle edition
is only $5.99 today – not sure why. But,
if you’re interested, why are you still here reading this? Go spend some money…buy buy buy! Okay, who’s singing the N’Sync song, now?)
- Mistress/Guilty
Wives by James Patterson
– 3 stars (I bunched these two separate titles together for a reason. If you’re a Patterson fan, you’ll know
why. His books all meld together after a
bit, and you can’t tell one from the other.
These were your typical page-turning, speed-reading specials from
someone who USED to be a favorite. Go
back to writing your own books again, Mr. Patterson, and maybe you’ll re-join
the top 10 with Ms. Slaughter up there!)
And, since I’ve promised myself that no post shall be
shared without a pretty picture to go with...
(The last time I shared some eye candy on here, it was a Channing pic for my friends. This time, it's all about me, baby. *sigh*)
