This installment of the Dexter series was a disappointment. It veered off the tried & true Dexter story line into one of ancient gods. Really!? It took me a lot longer to slog through, but it wasn't bad enough to keep me from continuing with the series. Here's to hoping Linsey has something better up his sleeve for the next book.

For me I think this was where the series really started to drag. So much time spent on describing horses, riding dresses and in-fighting between "sisters". Some fairly major events of the series occur in this book but so much of it is spent sorting out the weather. Some really exciting action scenes but dragged out over far too many pages.

After reading some heavy duty emotional books I had to return to a series that always makes me smile. The relationship between JD and Candace is what we all strive for in life. The fact that they deal with all the craziness, ups and downs with love and laughter makes this series so enjoyable. Also, there is always some 'bible study' thrown in.

The Tidal Poole (Elizabeth I, #2)

Book Rating
Not the most plausible series, but it is entertaining and that's why it's called fiction. I did enjoy the first book better, but <i>The Tidal Poole</i> kept me reading and the mystery was well-done. If you're a history buff, better skip it, but if you enjoy reading just for the sake of reading, I recommend the series. :)

Another excellent series
A very good series, better than the second one for me. It's well written and the acting, especially from Mahershala Ali is excellent. I like the way it varies from the initial investigation in the 80's, again 10 years later and 25 years after the case. If you like a good mystery check this out.

OMG I loved this book so much!
This series is like the Hunger Games combined with Jurassic Park! Its an easy smooth read with interesting characters, action and the whole package! I would recommend this to any YA fan that wants a new unputdownable trilogy... I will warn you though that when you finish the series it will break you!!

After?
As someone who read the After series, I feel like the movie could've been better. Scenes moved through too quick and one of the main characters Hardin Scott was portrayed as a nice, kind guy in the movie. Overall I feel like After would be better as a Netflix series which would comprise of three seasons, one for each book.

Probably the best book in the series so far.

While this series' books aren't bad reading i better get some g--damn answers soon. I don't like being strung along, thank you very much.

I don't trust Shepard. I'm to believe _______ is the killer? Excuse me if i skip the rest of the books and read the wiki for verification.

This novella collection contains three Christmas themed mysteries starring the author's regular series characters. As a fan of the first two, I loved their stories. Leslie's left me a little cold, but I do intend to give her series a try soon.
