The Clinic by Cate Quinn

Audio.  13.25 hours.

Read by Laurel Lefkow.

When a famous singer over doses in rehab, her sister checks in to find out what really happen.  I didn't like any of the characters, and the "twist" at the end was dumb.

2.5 stars.

What You Leave Behind by Wanda M. Morris

 Corruption in the south - poor, black families are cheated out of their homes.  Not a huge fan of the whole spirits thing, but story was okay.

3 stars.

The Crash by Freida McFadden

 Pregnant 23 year old, Tegan, crashes her car in a snowstorm.  A good samaritan stops to help, but may not be the savior she wished for.  I disliked the "conversations" with Little Tuna.  <gag>

I expected much better from the author.

2 stars.

The Beautiful Mystery by Louise Penny

Audio.  13.5 hours

Read by Ralph Cosham.

At  remote monastery in Quebec, a monk is found murdered in the garden.  Armand Gamache and Jean-Guy Beauvoir investigate.  I found the religious stuff dull and I missed Three Pines.

3 stars.

Paranoia by James Patterson and James O. Born

 Latest in the Michael Bennett series.

A hitman is killing retired NYPD officers and drug dealers are dying more than usual.  Are the cases related?  Also, Mary Catherine is pregnant via IVF.  I must have missed a few books in the series.  Honestly, this feels like an exhausting story arc,

3.5 stars.

Worst Case Scenario by T.J. Newman

When a plane crashes into a nuclear power plant campus, chaos and heartbreak ensues.  I took off half a star because I couldn't visualize some of the technical aspects.

4.5 stars. 

The Boyfriend by Freida McFadden

 Thirty four and single, looking for love in NYC, Sydney finally meets a man she really likes, but his suspicious behavior leaves her wondering if he was previously dating her friend who was murdered.

Glad I stuck with it.  It really picked up after the first few chapters.

Here One Moment by Liane Moriarty

 Passengers on an airplane flight are unnerved with a woman stands up and walks down the aisle telling each person when and how they will die.  Worse still is when the predictions start coming true.

I really loved the first 3/4 of the book, but the ending was anticlimactic.  The epilogue however did have a nice twist.

4 stars.
