Great development series as we gradually uncover the background to Oliver's time spent missing, the important bits revealed as they become pertinent to the present timeline story.
While the action moves quite regularly between the past and the present, thankfully Oliver has an NSync haircut in the past and also an unfeasibly squeaky voice so it is easy to tell the difference.

Quite funny... Not sure it's intentional (1 more)
Better than quite a few of the last offerings
Or Friday the 13th Part 10:The Final frontier
It seems to be missing comedy from the lists of genres?? That's the only reason you should watch this as they try desperately to breathe new life into Jason who has died more than enough times already!

Poignant but slow
This is rather a depressing account about how families and communities attempt to deal with the case of a missing person. In this instance it is about how society moves on with their lives leaving behind the families to deal with it. it is well written with beautiful descriptions but it tends to be quite a slow burner.

This was an amazing love story about growth and acceptence. It is not a smack you in the face with sex love story. It has an important messege of loving yourself and not missing what is in front of you.

The characters are amazing and fairly complex. The plot rolls at a good pace. Overall it leaves you with the warm fuzzies.

hmm... ok what to say. so much of this book was confusing to me. The storyline I enjoyed but felt like I was missing pieces. The characters were good. . And the plot was very interesting. I am left with questions though so overall it's worth a shot to try it and see what you think. The writing was very good

The two cases the women's murder club takes on this time include home fire murders and a missing Politian's son. One of the cases was well plotted and fun, while the other fizzled out before an improbable and unsupported end.

Missing students and an unexpected skull at a dig sight kick off this archaeology themed mystery series. The characters are good, but there were too many plot threads early on and it felt like it took a while to really come together.

Hmm not heard of the character before? This just seemed like a comic book western for me with a quirky supernatural element. It has a good cast and while not being a bad film, it does feel like there is something missing? It could have been a lot better. It's very short and simple and has some ok action scenes, that's about it.
  
Odelia is attending her high school reunion when the class jerk keels over dead. Then her boss goes missing. Can Odelia solve these two mysteries? The book was lots of fun, and the two stories definitely kept things moving forward.

Shawn and Gus are hired to find a missing necklace. But after they are robbed and their client murdered, they realize something bigger must be going on. The book was fun, but takes too many wild turns, leaving the book feeling unfocused.
