A review for the 20th book in the Eleanor Swift cozy mystery series by Verity Bright. A Midwinter Murder is a clever and charming mystery with lots of humor and Christmas nostalgia. Set in the early 1920s at an English country manor, there are lots of colorful characters that will keep you guessing who the murderer really is.
A review for the final book in The Burnished City fantasy series. Rebel Blade has everything I could have wanted in the ending for this series. All of the characters showed tremendous growth and had endings that I really enjoyed.
Happy Friday! Today I am bringing you two short reviews for books I finished recently. Virtually Dead (2010) by Peter May is a mystery that is set inside a virtual game, Second Life. The Lightning Bottles (2024)by Marissa Stapley is also a bit of a mystery, but is set in the 90’s rock scene.
Today I am reviewing two audiobooks that I listened to in October. They are very different from each other, but both were very good. My Best Friend’s Exorcism by Grady Hendrix is a comedy horror set in 1988. The Fate of Magic is the second book in the Witch and Hunter duology by Sara Raasch and Beth Revis.
A review for the upcoming new YA thriller by Natasha Preston, The Party. A group of students go to a remote castle for a party, when a storm traps them there. They soon realize that one of them is a murderer and the accusations and distrust starts to fly.
A review for the new book by Paula Hawkins, The Blue Hour. This suspense thriller unfortunately didn’t quite work for me, mostly because of the lack of suspense and a very ambiguous ending.
