Leafing Through Pages – Family Tree
Stars: 3 / 5 My Recommendation: Despite some of the aspects being portrayed questionably, author Delinsky does bring up one key factor with her plot. Does one have a public voice on their beliefs regarding race, religion, politics and even their pedigree? And a private voice that shows the actual beliefs of a person –Continue reading “Leafing Through Pages – Family Tree”
Leafing Through Pages – Antiques Frame (A Trash “n” Treasures Mystery #11)
Stars: 2 / 5 My Recommendation: Although it was a decent book, it disappointed me a lot. Perhaps I was expecting it to be on the lines of Garage Sale Mystery Books. Specially with one of the character being manipulative and abusive and taking advantage. Some things need to be ethically written to be enjoyable.Continue reading “Leafing Through Pages – Antiques Frame (A Trash “n” Treasures Mystery #11)”

Leafing Through Pages – Wyoming Legend (Wyoming Men #8)
Stars: 2 / 5 My Recommendation: Except for the genuine description of struggles of a champion figure skater and the unbreakable bond between Karina and her 9 yr old charge Janey, this book got so many things wrong that I barely finished the book since I don’t like to leave anything half-read. Wyoming Legend isContinue reading “Leafing Through Pages – Wyoming Legend (Wyoming Men #8)”
Leafing Through Pages – “D” is for Deadbeat (Alphabet Mystery #4)
For review of all books in this series: Go here. Stars: 3 / 5 My Recommendation: Another successful investigation by Kinsey Millhone rivaling the likes of Sam Spade and Philip Marlowe, but not yet there. Grafton gives us a female gumshoe with her share of flaws and strengths that further more enhances her character. AContinue reading “Leafing Through Pages – “D” is for Deadbeat (Alphabet Mystery #4)”

For review of all books about Nancy Drew, go here; about Hardy Boys go here; about Tarzan go here.

Leafing Through Pages – Eleven on Top (Stephanie Plum # 11)
For review of all books in the series: Go here. Stars: 3 / 5 Recommendation: A doggedly persistent gumshoe even with her ineptness, disorganized and above all having no inclination to use a weapon, it is a miracle that Stephanie can bring a case to a closure. I feel I should read the first fewContinue reading “Leafing Through Pages – Eleven on Top (Stephanie Plum # 11)”
