The Rules for Breaking by Ashley Elston

Audio.  9 hours.

Read by Alexa Elmy.

After finally getting out of witness protection, Anna finds herself back in trouble when an assassin starts looking for her.

I didn't like this as much as the first book mostly because it was hard to believe that these three kids could escape from their situation.

3.5 stars. 

Rage by Linda Castillo

 Latest story features Chief Kate Burkholder investigating the deaths of three Amish young adults.

3.5

The River is Waiting by Wally Lamb

 Corby goes to prison for the accidental death of his son because he was under the influence of drugs and alcohol.  

I liked the beginning of the book, but didn't like that so much of it was about his time in prison.  The animal cruelty was also unnecessary.  Also, the abrupt death of the protagonist was too jarring.  This could have been a 5 star book for me with some changes.

3 stars.
