Mark @ Carstairs Considers (2574 KP) rated 12th of Never (Women's Murder Club, #12) in Books

Mar 9, 2018

The Womens Murder Club is back and investigating a psychic who dreams about murders before they happen, a sleazy lawyer who might have murdered his wife, and a murder where the body was stolen from the morgue. You'd think these cases would be interesting by themselves, but the authors throw in a few more storylines for good measure. The result winds up being more jumbled mess than enjoyable. And very little detecting actually happens. Most of the solutions just fall in their laps.

Mark @ Carstairs Considers (2574 KP) rated Mr. Monk Gets Even (Mr. Monk, #15) in Books

Mar 9, 2018

There are several accidents in San Francisco that Monk decides are murders. Meanwhile, Dale the Whale is out of prison for an operation. Is he going to try to escape? And will that distract Monk from the other case? For those who have been following the books, this is a great pay off for the arcs that Lee has been building. I loved seeing where the characters wound up and am interested to see how the next author will pick up from here.

This was good, I'd never read anything by Lisa Jackson before and so I haven't read any of the books in the series leading upto this one. I caught the jist of what had happen previously as Lisa filled in the blanks without being bogged down with too much detail from the previous books. Only thing I would say is the gap between the murders and the 'who dunnit' bit was alittle to long for me and my mind was wandering on what to read next instead of finishing this first. I did enjoy it and I would read the next one.
