Retired General Shot on the 4th
Annie Darling is getting ready for the festival that Broward’s Rock is hosting for the fourth of July. Not only is her bookstore selling at a booth, but she’s on the library board, which is putting everything on, and is the benefit of the proceeds. Unfortunately, a newcomer to the island is also on the board, and making waves there and all over the island. So when someone shoots him during the fireworks, the only real question is who didn’t have a motive. Can Annie and her husband, Max, figure out what happened?

I struggled a bit with the first half of the book. It was obvious early on who the victim would be. While we were setting up suspects and motives, his antics were such an over the top cliché, it wasn’t always fun. Fortunately, things get better once Annie and Max start investigating. We get a somber yet logical climax, but we still have fun with all the series regulars along the way. I hope the victims get a little less predictable in future books, but series fans will still enjoy this one.

Smashbomb is the only reviewing app I look forward to using. I could spend hours on it, which is why I have to limit the time I spend on here. It has so many things, I have used peoples reviews here to help me pick the next board game/ book I will read. It helps me be more analytical on what makes something good by asking me to supply good and bad points to everything. I can't wait to see how it grows
