Another entertaining entry in this Amish series. The murder weapon here was different from any I have seen used before - a big cuckoo falling from a giant cuckoo clock!! An Amish proverb I enjoyed from this book: 'One thing you can learn by watching the clock is that it passes time by keeping its hands busy.'

An atmospheric book set in the Transylvania region of Romania, this Mary Russell and Sherlock Holmes adventure shines as a book in which the setting is a main character. The mystery around Queen Marie of Romania and her teenage daughter requires the detectives to sift through ancient legends, local customs, and strange happenings to determine who is threatening the stability of the country. A fun read with a satisfying conclusion.

9th book in series. Noelle is still searching for her father. This time, she and Flynn and cat go to France to Veszernay. Murder, historical documents, and truths are discovered. Very well written

It has been a while since I last read a Mike Bowditch book--it was fun to return to the adventures of this Maine game warden. Bowditch is a likeable character who tends to place himself in extremely dangerous situations [but he does survive them!!!]. I especially enjoy his interactions with Shadow - his high content wolf-dog and his ex-prisoner pal Billy Cronk, his wife, and their five kids-the Cronklets.

I am hooked on this series - what can I say??!! This was particularly graphic and I chose to skim some areas. There was no environmental cause in this selection. The courtroom scenes were exciting and there were MANY twists and turns that surprised me. I will continue with the series....since they are all e-books, I can log many miles on the treadmill and stationary bike while reading!

Beginning can be rough to get into as it starts with world building. As you read you become immersed into the world of Celaena Sardothian. You will definitely want to continue the series for more.

I'm only giving this book 4 stars because the book was very good but in all honesty it took me a very long time to get into and I am not sure if that is just the writing style of the author or not but her other books in her series were the same for me I STRUGGLED to get into them and actually finish them.

I didn't think Prisoner of Azkaban could feel fresh after so many rereads and listens, but this full-cast edition completely exceeded my expectations. Every actor brings their character to life with distinct personalities and emotion, while the immersive sound design and music make it feel like you're right there at Hogwarts. This is the point in the series where the story takes on a darker, more mature tone, and the production captures that shift perfectly. The Dementors are genuinely unsettling, the Quidditch scenes are exhilarating, and the emotional moments hit even harder than I remembered. Rather than replacing the classic single-narrator versions, this feels like experiencing the story in an entirely new way. It's cinematic without ever losing the heart of the original book. Whether you're revisiting the series or introducing someone to Harry Potter for the first time, this full-cast edition is absolutely worth listening to. I can't wait for the next installment.

This probably will be the last time I read a book in this series. On a positive note, the chapters are very short and so it is a fast read. On the negative side, this volume was extremely tedious to read. Almost every time a character was mentioned, both the first and last names were used - that got old very quickly!

This being the third and final book in this series makes me so sad I really loved this book more than the first two witch is very unusual for me because I NEVER like the last book but this one made me want to cry with how it ended.
