I liked it way more than I expected. It seems marketed towards teenage goth girls but it's really just a crime solving show. The idea is pretty unique and well done. However, like most crime shows it's just a formulaic story that repeats every episode.

Alex and JJ are back with a very "Silence of the Lambs" meet "Psycho" type villian. This was an enjoyable macabre read. I know kinda an oxymoron but if you like crime novels you will love the Alex Hope series. The characters are well done and the plot flows. Yes, there is romance but I feel it is almost secondary to the crime solving but no less enjoyable.

I honestly thought this would just be an extended epilogue in which Nevada and Connor got married. I was very wrong. This story mainly focuses on Catalina doing equal parts wedding planning for her sister and solving a crime, with rather amusing consequences.
I honestly can't wait to read Catalina's story.

Clare Parrott (294 KP) rated Josh (The Lawmen of Silver Creek Ranch #7) in Books
Feb 13, 2018
Josh is the seventh book in The Lawmen Of Silver Creek Ranch Series. Ive enjoyed all of the previous books but this was lacking the romance and excitement i've come to expect. Thankfully not as many "Oh Mercy" 's in this story, which drove me mad in Delores other books but too many telephone calls in this, Josh spends most of his time on the phone than solving the crime.

Extremely interesting
Took this book on holiday with me and could not put it down! Managed to read it very quickly. So interesting to learn about forensics and pathology! Behind the scenes of crimes that ordinary people would not realise. Read about interesting cases as the forensic/pathology/psychological/detective work that goes into solving such crimes. Fascinating! Clear chapters also. Including some pictures!

When the devil comes to town...
Contains spoilers, click to show
First began watching this a few months ago as had very little to do during isolation, I had been avoiding it as the shows title just made me think, it's the devil...seen enough about that, always the same...but was intrigued by the character during a brilliant Cameo in a CW arrowverse event"crisis on infinite earths" and decided to check it out.
The sarcasm from the moment Lucifer appears and his delightful antics throughout the show gave the character a complete new look and feel which was welcoming.
The show follows Lucifer who has decided to leave hell and take a permanent vacation to L.A. as a nightclub owner and a smooth talking bachelor.
During his time there a murder of a close associate entwines the lives of Lucifer and hard working detective Chloe decker.
Lucifer eventually becomes chloe's volunteer assistant enjoying the thrill of crime solving which becomes more and more interesting with every case...with Lucifer not taking crime solving seriously.

Erika (17789 KP) rated Savage Appetites: Four True Stories of Women, Crime, and Obsession in Books
Feb 14, 2021
I'm a huge true crime fan, which is the subject of this book and I'm writing this as I sit here, watching Dateline on St. Valentine's day. It's looking at why women specifically are drawn to the cases, and solving them. The author uses 4 women who all got involved with famous and notorious cases, in different roles.
By far, the creepiest was the woman who entered into the Tate family's lives. It gave me the willies. There was also a female that ended up marrying an incarcerated dude. That's always creeped me out as well.
Anyway, it's an interesting read if you're one of the many people obsessed with true crime.

Mark @ Carstairs Considers (2680 KP) rated Mr. Monk Goes to Hawaii (Mr. Monk, #2) in Books
Mar 9, 2018
Natalie is heading to Hawaii for a friend's wedding, but unfortunately Monk tags along. When a wedding guest is murdered, Monk finds some flaws in the crime scene. Will the new horrors of the island distract him from solving the case? There are some distractions to the main mystery, but they are entertaining. This is another great read for fans of the series.
