 | The Lazarus Trap (Premier Mystery Series #2) by T. Davis Bunn
Buy new: $7.99 / Used from: $0.01 Grade: B-
Good but a lot like reading the OUTLINE to a Robert Ludlum novel.

 | "O" Is for Outlaw by Sue Grafton
Buy new: $7.99 / Used from: $0.01 Grade: B

 | Sphere by Michael Crichton
Buy new: $12.92 / Used from: $2.99 Grade: C
One of my least favorite Crichton novels. Interesting idea but for me it fell apart into a bunch of silly pieces.

|
 | THE PERFECT HUSBAND
Buy used from: $0.99 Grade: D-
I can't believe I bothered to finish it. An awful story. Ugly with nothing that is redeeming to be found ANYWHERE. In addition it was a poorly constructed story that forced the reader to set aside common sense. Ultimately all it provided was shock value, ugly shock value. I disliked it so much that I will probably never read another book from this author.

 | His Private Mistress (Harlequin Presents) by Chantelle Shaw
Buy used from: $0.01 Grade:D-
Ugh.
|
 | The Silent Bride (April Woo Suspense Novels) by Leslie Glass
Buy used from: $0.01 Grade: B+
I am really liking these April Woo mysteries. Although they are not really mystery mysteries because you can't really determine who the killer as you are reading because there are no clues...you get there when you get there! But I like it anyway. And I appreciate that there are no gratuitous sex scenes and the the language is manageable as well!

 | T is for Trespass (Kinsey Millhone Mystery) by Sue Grafton
Buy new: $7.99 / Used from: $0.01 Grade: B
Excellent. Love Kinsey. This one took awhile to get to the action, but it was worth the wait!
|
 | No Place Like Home: A Novel by Mary Higgins Clark
Buy new: $7.99 / Used from: $0.01 Grade: F
Read the first 25 pages, guessed whodunit, read the last 5 pages. Done, done and done.
|
 | The Bone Vault by Linda Fairstein
Buy new: $7.99 / Used from: $0.01 Grade: B-
A fun, fast and ultimately forgettable read.
|
 | Milk and Honey (Peter Decker/Rina Lazarus Novels) by Faye Kellerman
Buy new: $7.99 / Used from: $0.01 Grade: F
Got bored. Read end.

 | The Closers (Harry Bosch) by Michael Connelly

Excellent, exciting, fun with a capital F!
|
 | The Hunt Club (Wyatt Hunt) by John Lescroart
Buy new: $8.43 / Used from: $0.01 Grade: C
A decent story that ran WAY too long. By the end I couldn't wait to be done with it--- 500 pages that should have been 300.
|
 | The Mephisto Club (Jane Rizzoli, Book 6) by Tess Gerritsen
Buy new: $7.99 / Used from: $0.01 Grade: B
Loved it! Fun, fast paced, and exciting! Interesting subject matter as I find symbology uber fascinating. Some bad language.
|
 | Harvest by Tess Gerritsen
Buy new: $7.99 / Used from: $0.01 Grade: C-
Exciting and fun. A bit implausible but who cares! Also Gerritsen was so over the top with bad language that I almost quit reading the book. Book would have received a B but for the cussing.

 | The Overlook (Harry Bosch) by Michael Connelly
Buy new: $7.99 / Used from: $0.01 Grade: B

Silly, silly, silly!
|
 | Million-Dollar Love-Child (Harlequin Presents) by Sarah Morgan
Buy used from: $0.01 Grade: F
Sillier than usual. I am still not sure why I bother to periodically read one of these. I guess I hope to find some romance in there somewhere and there is NONE, not a sliver to be found. Maybe I will write my own romance!
|
 | The Princess: The Bride Quest #1 by Claire Delacroix
Buy new: $6.99 / Used from: $0.01 Grade: D
Hideously boring, skimmed most, read end.
|
 | I Heard That Song Before: A Novel by Mary Higgins Clark
Buy new: $7.99 / Used from: $0.01 Grade: C
Average. Not super exciting but not a snooze fest either!
|
 | Hanging Time (April Woo Suspense Novels) by Leslie Glass

Too predictable to rate better. Still, I enjoyed it.

A fun exciting read with Detective April Woo.
|
 | All Through the Night by Davis Bunn
Buy new: $11.19 / Used from: $0.87 Grade: c-
Started pretty good, required a fair amount of "suspension of belief" and finished lamely. Disappointing.

 | Promise Me (Myron Bolitar Mysteries) by Harlan Coben
Buy new: $9.99 / Used from: $0.01 Grade: B-
Another Myron Bolitar book. Coben's stories about Myron have plenty silly, quirky characters and this one is no exception. A fun and entertaining read.
|
 | Plum Lucky (A Between-the-Numbers Novel) by Janet Evanovich
Buy new: $7.18 / Used from: $2.85 Grade: c
Ehhhh, just okay. Not as funny as usual. I think maybe the antics of the characters are wearing thin after 14+ novels. Their hijinks are just not novel anymore.
|
 | Fearless Fourteen (Stephanie Plum, No. 14) by Janet Evanovich
Buy new: $11.18 / Used from: $3.90 Grade: D
Just stupid and not remotely funny. Might be time for me to put Stephanie Plum to bed.
|
 | Broken Angel: A Novel by Sigmund Brouwer
Buy new: $10.39 / Used from: $5.80 Grade: C
Okay. The author tried too hard to keep secret things that the reader guessed right away.
|
 | The Concrete Blonde (Harry Bosch) by Michael Connelly
Buy new: $7.99 / Used from: $0.01 Grade: C
A typical Harry Bosch novel and it would have received my typical grade of B except that this novel went on a bit too long which caused some lagging and dragging through the story.
|
 | Demon: A Memoir by Tosca Lee
Buy new: $9.35 / Used from: $1.12 Grade: A-
Outstanding! The message of Christ's loving sacrifice jumps out at the reader from within the memoirs of a demon! I cannot recommend this one enough.

 | Hold Tight by Harlan Coben
Buy new: $9.99 / Used from: $0.01 Grade: C+
Totally implausible, however, it was super fun to read-- I couldn't put it down and finished it in two sittings!
|
 | The Sinner (Jane Rizzoli, Book 3) by Tess Gerritsen
Buy new: $7.99 / Used from: $0.01 Grade: B-
Fast paced, pretty fun to read,
but nasty language was, again, a problem.
|
 | The Martyr's Song (The Martyr's Song Series, Book 1) by Ted Dekker
Buy new: $9.99 / Used from: $3.66 Grade: A-
Excellent, refreshing, heart touching. A super quick read that reminded me what is important in life- nothing here on earth!

So-so, nothing to rave about.
