Alison Pink (7 KP) rated Lean Mean Thirteen (Stephanie Plum, #13) in Books

Jan 15, 2018

The 13th book sees the return on Dickie Orr as a main character in the series. Maybe I shouldn't say return, Dickie has been mentioned & appeared in several of the previous PLum novels, but in this one he is front & center. Dickie is unknowingly involved in a drug smuggling, gun running, money laundering business that is fronted by his law firm. As usual Stephanie pulls herself into the mix in a strange way & eventually finds herself being chased by mafioso armed with flame throwers.

Mark @ Carstairs Considers (2395 KP) rated Skating Around the Law (Rebecca Robbins, #1) in Books

Mar 9, 2018

Rebecca Robbins has returned to her small home town just long enough to sell her mother's roller rink. But when the town handy man is found murdered in the women's bathroom, she realizes she needs to get his murder solved quickly since no one is interested in it. A typical cozy series debut, but I really enjoyed the characters and found the story fun.

Law school sucks. The end.

While I liked the characters overall and I did feel a tad sorry for them, I didn't gain much else from this book. It's predictable and somewhat boring. I only finished reading it just to say that I had.

I've heard so many good things about Grisham, but I definitely would not place this one at the top of a list. However, I'm not going to judge the author based on one book. There are always hits and misses somewhere.

Recommend Me

The Secret by Rhonda Byrne
At first read about 5 years ago I thought this book was a bit to far fetched. How could anyone possible belive the principles they were talking about. However this is a book I read at least every 2 months now. It is all about the law of attraction and the energy around us. It really does work when you think about it. I highly recommend at least a coupleof reads to really understand it. One of my top books ever

The science!

Didn't realise this was going to become non-fiction

I used to love this film as I like the fact the science was quite good. I like Kate Winslet's character and her difficulties in attempting to explain the severity of the situation to politicians. I like the ending where it shows how the virus jumped to humans. I found that I wanted the punch Jude Law throughout the film but am glad that he at least wasn't completely able to get away with it.
