Ghost Station by S.A. Barnes
One of my top horrors is space. Another one is under the sea (like deep under the sea). I also don’t like to fly, and caves freak me out. I never thought I was a control freak until I realized that the thing that scares me the most about these things is that I’m not in control. I can’t “get out” of whatever I’m in (space ship, submarine, airplane, etc) when I want to. As far as space, under the ocean, and caves, I have […]
(Amy Larson & Hunter Forrest FBI #4) The Reaper Follows by Heather Graham
I think my earliest Cannonball in Kfishgirl history (before today) was October of last year. Prior to that I was usually still doing reviews on like December 31st and trying to get them all in. I would like to credit my reading accomplishments this year to hand surgery! I was off work for three weeks, and I think I read 11 books in those three weeks. They gave me a nice push to finish early. I guess since we’re not even at June yet I’ll […]
Demon Copperhead by Barbara Kingsolver
I really tried with this book. I borrowed the Kindle version a few months ago and got multiple hours into it. Then I just could not continue with the never-ending trauma / bad luck / shitty situations this kid was in. I guess my bad feelings went away, because I saw my sister had the Audible version last week. I gave it another shot. I started like two hours in, because I knew I had gotten at least that far. I probably listened for another […]
(Jack Reacher #4) Running Blind by Lee Child
We meet up with our intrepid Reacher as he’s eating at an Italian restaurant he likes in New York. He sees two thugs trying to shake down the manager. As we know Jack Reacher, this will not stand. He decides that he’s going to take care of the problem before it becomes a problem. He asks the manager when the guys will be back for money, and then he intercepts them outside. Unfortunately, he’s being watched by two FBI agents while he smacks them around […]
(Icehome #4) Angie's Gladiator by Ruby Dixon
(Icehome #7) Nadine's Champion by Ruby Dixon
Here we go again with blue alien smut! Actually the two main aliens in these two books are red. So we’ll go with red alien smut. I continue to have issues with the “mating is only for procreation” themes in these books, but they’re still fun for me, and like I said in my previous review, I’m a part time escapist! Nothing screams escapist more than RED ALIEN PORN. Sorry, sometimes I go with the more demure “smut”, but it really is basically alien porn. […]
(Stone Barrington #8) The Short Forever by Stuart Woods
This Stone Barrington novel picks up a few months after Cold Paradise ended. Stone is waiting for Callie in Elaines, and she shows up late and married to the billionaire in the previous book. I’d say poor Stone, but he’ll be rolling around with another woman in no time. Stone is then hired (seemingly randomly as always) by John Bartholomew to find his niece overseas where she was swindled by a conman. Of course, all of Stone’s expenses are paid, and he’s traveling and […]
