Mark @ Carstairs Considers (2498 KP) rated True Stories in Books
Mar 9, 2018
I don’t normally read non-fiction, but I enjoyed all 10 of the stories here. They were entertaining, which is what it takes to keep me reading. Middle school guys will love it, and anyone looking to learn something in an entertaining fashion will enjoy it.
NOTE: I was sent an ARC of this book, but no review was requested or promised. My thoughts are my own.

Mark @ Carstairs Considers (2498 KP) rated The Black Echo (Harry Bosch #1) in Books
Mar 9, 2018
Overall, this is a strong debut from an authors who is now wildly popular. I did feel that Bosch could be a bit too cold at times, and there were certainly clichés in the story. On the other hand, the plot moved forward quickly and always kept me engaged. And I did enjoy the characters most of the time.
