I particularly like the author’s sense of the time period. The characters are interesting, and I am always surprised by the murderer.

I would recommend this book to anyone open to hearing the heartfelt account of someone who felt compelled to speak the truth, as she experienced it, about January 6th and the Trump White House. Cassidy chose to put country over party— which too few other people did. I recommend the audio book because you get to hear her story in her own voice.

As a longtime fan, I loved this biography of Terry Pratchett. It was wonderful to get a window into the inspirations for certain elements of his books. It was also humbling to read about the decisions he made and the actions he took to make Alzheimer’s visible to the world. If you normally shy away from “sad things “ in literature— don’t shy away from this. It is not all sad, and you’ll be the better for having read it. Not the least by discovering new enjoyment of Terry Pratchett’s books.

While this book doesn’t start as a romantic comedy, but it does get there! It has a quirky plot— most of which is fun. There is a detour into a minor character dealing with visa and immigration law, that went on too long, but the main plot is satisfying.

I love Nora Robert’s books, but for me this was one of her lesser stories. There was too much emphasis on justifying stealing— just because the male character was a charming rake.

Terry Pratchett is at his best in this funny book about Moist running the bank in the Disc World city of Ank Morpuk (sp?). The reader is excellent!

Good mystery and characters! Nora Roberts makes Alaska almost a character, as well, which I enjoy. This is for readers who like romance and mystery together in an exotic/less familiar setting.

This was published in 1965, and is a fascinating look at the time period! Mary Stewart sets it in Austria, and includes elements of both a circus and the famous Lippizaner horses. There a number of sections of high tension, as well as mystery.
I liked the narrator, and found her easy to understand.
