I love the books of Andrew Mayne. They have action and mysteries with lots of science / math type aspects. The Specialists is the combination of 4 series, the Underwater Investigation Unit series, the Theo Cray & Jessica Blackwood series, which is preceded by a Jessica Blackwood series, and the Trasker series. The chronology seems to […] The post <span class="entry-title-primary">🎧 Impostor Syndrome by Andrew Mayne</span> <span class="entry-subtitle">@AndrewMayne @OhSusann...| Books of My Heart
After the Sisters of Paradise, we return to the old Paradise world for a new series of stories and this time, there are three brothers.

Meet Me in the Orchard begins a few months […] The post <span class="entry-title-primary">Meet Me in the Orchard by Carolyn Brown</span> <span class="entry-subtitle">@carolynbrown.bsky.social @s...| Books of My Heart

I wasn’t sure what to expect but I really enjoyed The Witch’s Orchard. The author is new to me and I was impressed with the small town tale with abducted girls tied into a folk tale. The paranormal aspect was very limited. I wouldn’t mind this being the start of a series. Ten years ago, […]| Books of My Heart
Salem’s Cipher series is a re-release. I didn’t know about the older release but I enjoy this author and there is a lot of puzzle solving and treasure-hunting which appeal to me. There is also a distinct focus for women, especially those who have had their scientific discoveries usurped by men. The story begins in […]| Books of My Heart
The peaceful fall goings on in their Edwardian era English village are disrupted when a neighbor claims there is a ravaging beast loose in the woods near his farm not long before he is ripped apart by something with ferocious claws. TE Kinsey’s latest Lady Hardcastle Mystery took on a chilling cryptid bent for “tiny […]| Books of My Heart
If you are down on your luck because fate, that fickle B, has worked you into a corner and it looks like there is nowhere for you to go and nothing you can do, well you might just be a great candidate for a new kind of magical school. This is not the Hogwarts letter […]| Books of My Heart
One of the most endearing TV shows to come out of the 80’s was The Golden Girls and with reruns, succeeding generations have come to know those feisty old gals from Miami. I was tickled to discover that a new to me author had taken up the challenge to pair these TV personalities with a […]| Books of My Heart
I’ve been collecting some of the Nora Roberts audio books which are not at the library. I knew this was the one I most wanted to hear. Since they are almost all standalone, they should be easier to fit into the reading schedule. The Search is about a woman who trains K9 dogs for search […]| Books of My Heart
Run was Blake Crouch’s first published novel. It has recently been republished with some minor updates. I can see how this novel helped start his career and set him apart as an author. It is fast paced and action packed with plenty of crazy moments. Everything that I’ve grown to expect from a Blake Crouch […]| Books of My Heart
A middle-aged couple are hosting a country house party, a dead body is found on her library rug. Does this set up sound familiar? Oh, yes it does and that middle-aged couple? None other than Agatha Christie and her archeologist husband, Max Mallowan. Of course I had to read Colleen Cambridge’s mystery series set in […]| Books of My Heart
The Fury of the Gods is the final book of the Bloodsworn Saga, a tale set in a world of Animal gods, The Tainted (humans with the power of certain gods in their blood), Witches and regular Viking like people. This is a action packed ride with a lot of fighting that will get us to […]| Books of My Heart
