Ok so I am not a dog person, we have always had cats. Having said that, Alex Kava’s Ryder Creed series makes me realize how many cool things dogs can do that cats can’t or won’t do! Hidden creed is book number 41 for the year. It is the sixth book in the series and may be the best yet!
So I’ve recently been recapping the six books that I read in August. So far I’ve only written about two of the books. Well, today I finished my first book I have read in September and the 40th book I’ve read in 2020. Now, rather than not writing anything about books until I’m caught up writing about the books I read in August, I thought I’d write about book 40 while it’s still fresh in my memory!
36. The Last Odyssey (Sigma Force # 15) James Rollins
So this is the second of James Rollins’s Sigma Force thrillers I’ve read in 2020, While I was waiting for The Last Odyssey to become available from my library, I read The Bone Labyrinth, which had been on my TBR shelves for a long time. I’m actually glad I read The Bone Labyrinth recently because a character from that book makes a repeat appearance in The Last Odyssey. So everything that she was Involved in was still fresh in my memory!
Revolver Road by Christi Daugherty and Carol O’ Connell’s Dead Famous are the 29th and 30th books I have read in 2020. I have previously read books written by both authors. Revolver Road is the third book in Daugherty’s Harper McClain series, which is to date is three books long. While Dead Famous is book 7 of the Kathleen Mallory series from O’ Connell.
So every once in a while I need to take a break from all the murder and mayhem that I read about. Sometimes that break is taken even while staying in the genre and I’ll read a book that’s part of a mystery series like a Stephanie Plum book from Janet Evanovich or one featuring Parnell Hall’s Stanley Hastings or Cora Fenton the Puzzle Lady. But the fist book of 2020 was an outer space adventure from Bruce J Hutchinson Space Team:The Search for Splurt.
So I ended 2019 having read 53 books. That’s 19 books from my unrealistic goal of 72 books. I only read three books in December. The first bookI read was Brad Thor’s Use of Force. That was followed by Torpedo Juice from Tim Dorsey. The last was The Chestnut Man by Soren Sveistrup.
Tonight, I finished Torpedo Juice by Tim Dorsey it is the fifty-second (52) book I have read in 2019. And while I will finish well below the goal of 72 books read I set at the beginning of the year, I will have at the least read one book a week for 2019. Which I think is always a great accomplishment.
