The Guy Who Died Twice by Lisa Gardner

Audio.  1 hour, 37 minutes.

Read by Kirsten Potter.

Detective D.D. Warren has to solve a most unusual case.

5 stars.

 

The Twist of a Knife by Anthony Horowitz

 Anthony is accused of murder and only Hawthorne can help save him.

I didn't like this book because I don't like the story line of innocent people being framed.  Just my own quirk.  I'm sure others enjoyed it more.  I had to force myself to finally finish it.

3 stars.

Inside the Wolf by Amy Rowland

 This might have been a good book, but the amount of animals getting hurt/killed turned me off.  

Didn't finish.

The Breakaway by Jennifer Weiner

 Ridiculous premise saved by Ms. Weiner's excellent writing.

4 stars.

Daisy Darker by Alice Feeney

 Audio.  9 CDs.

Read by Stephanie Racine.

Family members are being killed, but by whom?  And why?  

The story seemed a little long, but I'm glad I stuck with it.  The twist at the end was really surprising.

4 stars.  (Added a half for the British accents.)

Prom Mom by Laura Lippman

A girl gives birth in a hotel room during the prom.  Story of how this affects her life and that of the baby's father.

This book started okay.  The premise was fairly interesting and Ms. Lippman develops her characters.  Unfortunately, none of the characters are likable.  All the women love and protect this man who doesn't deserve it.  All of them are wrong in their opinion of him.

Then the ending takes a bizarre turn and wraps things up quickly without making much sense (to me).

2 stars

Fire With Fire by Candice Fox

 Ms. Fox has written a half dozen or so novels with James Patterson.  I have enjoyed the books she's written with him, more so than his other co-authors.

This novel by Ms. Fox alone, was pretty good.  The plot premise was interesting, but it was a bit wordy at times.

A young rookie cop gets fired before she even gets a chance.  She teams up with Charlie Hoskins, an old-timer, to find a missing child before her parents blow up the police lab.

3.5 stars.
