I did such a,sucky job of writing about the books I read last year. So this year I think I will write about what I am going to read and then write about what I thought about the book. So let’s go
My Proposed January 2025 Reads
Currently I have too many books out of the library. This has caused a problem. I was reading two books at once and I didn’t finish either before t they needed to be returned. luckily I was able to renew both of them . however they both have moved to the bottom of my library TBR pile. The books are the latest from Karin Slaughter This is Why We Lied and Angel of Vengeance the most recent,Agent Pendergast tale from Preston & Child.
First Up –Where They Last Saw Her
As a result of the above, I am currently reading Where They Last Saw Her the new release from Marcie R Rendon. I checked this book out of the library because I have read two of the three books in her Cash Blackbear series. Back in 2023 I read both Girl Gone Missing,(2) and Sinister Graves (#3). I enjoyed them both and have the first book in the series in my Nook books. ,where they saw her last is a standalone book but the setting is still in the same area and on an Indian Reservation.
I need to really finish Where They Last Saw Her quickly because after today it’s overdue! The good news is that my library has a new no fine policy. The bad news is that after a while they contact you about your overdue book being lost!
Then On To Don’t Turn Around
After finishing the Rendon book I have one more book that needs to be finished before the end of the month Don‘t Turn Around by Harry Dolan.
Back in 2014 I read the first two David Loogan novels by Harry Dolan Bad Things Happen and Very Bad Men. I loved both of them! However trough the years I lost track of his work. I know I checked out the third book in the Loogan series The Last Dead Girl but never finished it! (Too many books too little time).
Anyway I was really excited when I saw Don’t Turn Around and I can’t wait to read it!!
And Finally – Karin Slaughter and Preston & Child books.
To end the month , I will return to both the Karin Slaughter and Preston & Child books.
So if I complete all of the above my total number of read for the month will be five. And put me on p-a pace to read 50 books this year!
Since I highly recommend all of these authors, I’ll go out on a limb and recommend all of the books so Check Them Out!
