Suswatibasu (1703 KP) rated Cross Justice in Books

Jaw dropping at times but some inconsistencies
There were moments where I actually applauded the writing after finding out another piece of information and twist to this non-stop thriller. The snappy writing allows you to stay engaged with the story and the endless plot turns make it all the more intriguing.
I had a few qualms however. Some of the action sequences were bordering on Hollywood and were totally unbelievable, making Alex Cross seem invincible. And the serial killer narrative that went parallel to the story seemed almost pointless although it was at times even more engaging.

A future classic
I first bought this book years ago when I was waiting for my bus. The cover had been peeking out at me and the blurb cried out. Information on it was scant but I had a feeling it was going to be good.
High Howey's impressive and, originally, self-published sci-fi is a must-read for fans of the genre. There are plenty twists and turns to keep you going and they become even more important the more you get through the series.

Ruth Frampton (577 KP) rated Rosie the Tarantula: A True Adventure in Chicago’s Field Museum in Books
Apr 10, 2018
This book can be a story on so many levels, I love it. Rosie goes for a wander through the museum. On the surface a basic story, but this can help a youngster get more familiar with a spider and find humour in it's actions. It can be a wonderful way to explore Chicago's Field Museum, the additional information at the end about Spiders serves those who really like tarantulas as well as those just wanting to learn a little more. Beautifully illustrated with rhyming prose this is a book to read, re-read and treasure.

Hard to follow
Tough
I took quite a while to finish this book, I had to have a couple of breaks from it. I'm not sure if it's because it's quite old and the style of writing is hard to understand but I found this quite hard to follow. It seems to jump from characters and there's alot of quotation marks missing when needed, again this may be because the book itself was written a long time ago. The actual story is amazing and Oskar risked his entire life to save so many people.
graveyardgremlin (7194 KP) rated Murder on the Iditarod Trail in Books
Feb 15, 2019
Smooth and easy reading. The mystery was interesting but there weren't many viable suspects so it was pretty obvious. However the information on the Iditarod was fascinating and plentiful. It seems very well researched in that regard, and I'd venture a guess that if there are any mistakes, they're minor. I really liked the author's writing style and I can see how she's been compared to Nevada Barr (who's fantastic in my opinion). While I'm not sold on the series as a whole yet, I will definitely pick up the next one to see how it develops.

Oof. I get the draw. Cram a ton of your favorite 80's trivia into a futuristic plot and call it a day. And it is great fun knowing the things the characters praise as obscure puzzles and information. But there are problems. 1) Without the nostalgia of vomiting 80's references, there's little to glean from the story itself. 2) The <b>extremely</b> problematic relationship that the hero pursues that gives a platform for incel's everywhere. 3) An action oriented plot that kind of just sputters out. Rough finish. Great story if you see toxic online behavior as "misunderstood," though.
