I love to read. I'm usually reading at least 3 books at a time. They're not all good... some are really bad. I have trouble not finishing books though. Now CBR has doubled down on that trouble, because I want to get credit for reading the bad ones too!

This book is somehow the beginning of a series. If you ever read a review of mind before you know that I always start series in the middle, so it’s weird that I started this one of the beginning. Anyway,  This 1st book is about detective Renee Ballard, who was placed on the night shift, which is where the police officers go when they’ve misbehaved. Unfortunately for rene, she didn’t actually misbehave. She just accused her supervising officer of sexual harassment, and nobody backed her […]

More Gideon and Sirius

December 29, 2018 by kfishgirl Leave a Comment

This is the fourth book in the Gideon and Sirius series.  I believe I’ve read all four of them in this current Cannonball.  After reading to the end, the author said he’s got at least two more books in the works.  Hopefully I’ll get to read and review them for CBR11! In this book, Gideon ends up working about three cases at once.  They all kind of sneak up on him while he’s going about his life.  He’s volunteering at Angie’s Rescue (or Heather’s Rescue, […]

I think I’ve read this book at least four times

December 28, 2018 by kfishgirl Leave a Comment

The Season of Passage is one of my favorite books from my teen years. I had always loved Christopher Pike as a teen, because he felt a little more sophisticated than R.L.Stine, who was the other “horror” author for my age group. I guess I probably loved this book from the beginning because the main character’s name is Lauren, which is also my name.  It’s just a great book overall though.  You get to know the characters enough to care about them before anyone is […]

End of CBR10 panic post!!!

December 28, 2018 by kfishgirl Leave a Comment

So my December has been suuuper crazy.  Work is insane, and I’ve been trying to fit in reading with all the extra working I’ve been doing.  I’ve been falling asleep at night without reading, which is not normal for me.  Anyway, even when I have finished books, I haven’t had the time or energy to review them!  I write all day at work (nothing fun or exciting), so sometimes it’s hard to write these reviews after long days of work.  That’s why I’m shoving these […]

Animals make us human

November 30, 2018 by kfishgirl Leave a Comment

cbr10bingo… Backlog BINGO #2 I got this on my Kindle on March 20, 2013.  That’s over five years ago.  I think it’s the first Kindle book I ever bought?  I don’t know why it took me so long to read it.  I guess I heard some stuff about how Temple Grandin was involved in helping to create humane slaughter practices, and I didn’t want to read about animal slaughter, even if it was humane. It turns out that only small parts of a few chapters talk […]

I don’t want to go into those Dark Places either

November 30, 2018 by kfishgirl Leave a Comment

cbr10bingo…White Whale I accidentally bought this on my Kindle on March 6, 2015.  I don’t think I had even read Gone Girl yet at that point, but I think I had heard about Ms. Flynn.  This has been on my “to read” list for a while now, so I’m calling it my White Whale.  Like I said above, I have the Kindle version, but I wasn’t reading it, and I’m reading another book on my Kindle currently, so I downloaded the audiobook version and I listened […]
