Alicia S (193 KP) rated Unbelievable: A Billionaire Enemies-to-Lovers Romance in Books
Jan 29, 2018
Blown away once again!
Once again Callie has blown me away with Colt & Caroline's story! I have loved every book she has written and every time she gets me with these hot a$$ scenes, passionate relationships and heartbreaking moments. I loved hearing about the whole family again, seeing this incredibly beautiful and passionate side of Colton and of course getting some good laughs a the FSOG & Outlander references ;-) HIGHLY, HIGHLY recommended book, series and author!!
Mark @ Carstairs Considers (2652 KP) rated Unlucky 13 (Women’s Murder Club, #13) in Books
Mar 9, 2018
With Lindsay tracking a stomach bomber, Cindy follows up on a lead to a killer that got away. Meanwhile, Yuki is getting married.
This series is wildly uneven, but this is one of the better ones. Three plots make things a bit rushed at the end, and Claire becomes sidelined for much of the book, but it had me turning pages.

Mark @ Carstairs Considers (2652 KP) rated Seventh Day (A.D. Chronicles, #7) in Books
Mar 9, 2018
The latest entry in their Biblical historical fiction series returns us to the last year of Jesus' life as everyone seems to be plotting against him. But when Lazarus gets caught up in the plot, what will happen? I enjoyed this book much better then the last one, but it's constant switching from first to third person wasn't handled well.

Mark @ Carstairs Considers (2652 KP) rated Murder With Puffins (Meg Langslow, #2) in Books
Mar 9, 2018
A romantic weekend on an island in Maine is anything but for Meg and Michael when they find her family already at the family cabin. That's before a hurricane arrives and strands them with an island packed with birders and a killer. While this book still has the humor of the first in the series, it also features a stronger mystery.

Mark @ Carstairs Considers (2652 KP) rated Mrs. Pollifax on the China Station (Mrs. Pollifax, #6) in Books
Mar 9, 2018
Mrs. Pollifax heads to China to find out the location of a forced labor camp so the CIA can free a political prisoner. As much as I love the series, this is a disappointment. It reads more like a travelogue for too much of the book, which doesn't give the plot enough time when it is finally tries to go somewhere.

Mark @ Carstairs Considers (2652 KP) rated Red Velvet Cupcake Murder (Hannah Swensen, #16) in Books
Mar 9, 2018
Hannah's back and this time baking cupcakes to celebrate the grand reopening of a local hotel turned condos. But when a woman falls from the penthouse during the party, Hannah begins to investigate. Those who love the series will enjoy the latest entry. It's the usual mix of baking and murder and even wraps up some loose ends from the last book.

Mark @ Carstairs Considers (2652 KP) rated The Mystery on Cobbett's Island in Books
Mar 9, 2018
Trixie isn't looking for a mystery when she and her friends head to Cobbett's Island. However, their first night there, they find a letter that suggests there is a treasure nearby. With their new friend Peter, can they find it? This is my second favorite book in the series. The characters are wonderful and the plot is very well done.

Rinnah Two Feathers is spending the summer with her two best friends at a cabin one of their dad's owns. But a strange note from a mysterious woman plunges all of them into more danger. Again, the characters are great and the plot moves along at a brisk pace. I sure wish this weren't the final book in the series.

Mark @ Carstairs Considers (2652 KP) rated True Light (Restoration, #3) in Books
Mar 9, 2018
This is the third book in a series set in a modern world were modern technology has failed. It's winter, which has made daily survival very hard. Yet things get worse when Mark Green is accused of murder. Can the Branning family clear him? Once again, I was pulled into this world. And the mystery was actually well developed here as well.

I’m usually a bit hesitant to stray from my favorite authors and this time was no different. However, I’m soo glad I did! You want action, mystery, romance, betrayal? It’s all here. The best part is that it’s all here without the usual angsty cliches normally found in books that are listed as YA. I’m not going to recap the book, you can read the cover yourself. Read the book, read the series, you won’t regret it!!
