Book Two in the Country Store Mystery Series. The story just continues but this time Robbie Jordan finds Erica dead on the floor of the store. She didn't hear anything and now she is scared. Who wanted to kill Erica and why? Robbie of course decides to help the police find the killer, while putting herself in danger. Quick, easy and fun read. I will continue to read the rest of the series.

How The Word Is Passed
by Clint Smith

book cover


I really enjoyed this book. I loved the way that the author used different chapters to take us to various different parts of the world and the United States to demonstrate how the history of the slave trade in America is represented and passed on either truthfully or not quite as truthfully. It is incredibly interesting, whilst at the same time exposing some horrific facts. Unfortunately I listed to this as an audiobook and did not feel that the author Clint Smith, despite being a poet, read it with much feeling or empathy. It was a relatively quick read but definitely leads me to want to do some more exploring of the information touched on in the book.

Trials of Apollo: The Burning Maze
by Rick Riordan

book cover


I love all of the Rick Riordan books but this one slightly less, the reason for that being is that Rick Riordan killed oh of my favorite characters who is also in the Heroes of Olympus books. Also I like that you have some puzzles involved with the books.

Win
by Harlan Coben

book cover


This was a page turner with a good mystery from a very reliable author. I knocked it down a peg for the misogyny. Even if the character acknowledges the misogyny it’s still a factor. I have only read one Myron Bolitar novel so I did not remember Win - I came in fresh to this book.

The Endermen Invasion: An Unofficial Gamer's Adventure, Book Three
by Winter Morgan
