I enjoyed the mystery and thrill of this book! There was a lot suspense and backstory. I like the way it was written as well. You suspected/predicted a lot of different characters throughout the book but that’s the fun! Creepy vibes in the bayou with lots of murder.

Book 2 out of 3 has a different sister as the main protagonist. This one is about a demon posession and two people who shared past lives. Well written.

The third book in the series is never as good as the first two. Millie builds a new life for herself but is still finding trouble around her. McFadden’s twists become more predictable the more you read her books, especially since there are only so many characters to choose from when deciding who committed the crimes. Overall a fun and thrilling read again.

I chose this to fill the 'Ohio Author' square for my Book Bingo SRP. I enjoy an occasional 'cozy' and this was a lot of fun. Set in a Magical Bookshop in the Niagara Falls region, characters included Emerson [a tuxedo cat] and Faulkner [a talking crow that spouted many literary quotes]. The book was entertaining and I learned more about wineries and ice wine. I enjoyed the book and started reading the next selection in the series already!!

This segment deals with psychics, kidnappings, ghosts as well as the Otherness. The saga continues. Excellent.

A man goes to see his neighbor who is a retired doctor. He has a problem. He is losing 1 to 2 pounds daily but his physical form has not changed. He still looks like he weighs 250 pounds. Clothes on or clothes off, holding 20 pounds of weight, he weighs the same and continues to lose. He rights some wrongs and continues to lose. Story has a good ending though not what I expected.

Saga continues. Jack takes a fixit case to help a woman whose 18 year old daughter has been seduced by a 30+ year old man. Also her first detective disappeared without notice. ODNA is discovered and along with an institure for the criminally insane. Jack has a hard time with this case. Riveting.

Polonsky's debut novel features a sixth grader who has felt like a 'girl' on the inside for most of his life. Throughout the book, we see Grayson struggle to gain the confidence to transform into who she is meant to be. The mix of both positive and negative characters made this a very moving book.

I read about this on the Facebook page of my other SRP. It intrigued me, was available digitally, and was a square I needed [Set at a University]. It was a quick read with lots of historical information. I also liked being familiar with the locations where the crime occurred. The extensive newspaper coverage and the many pictures of the 1929 event included in the book helped to hold my interest. I had never heard of this crime nor of the convicted killer-Dr. James Howard Snook, OSU Professor of Veterinary Medicine. A fun fact - Dr. Snook invented the 'snook hook' - a tool used in spaying animals. It is still in use.

I struggled to complete this book. I did not like the main character at all and was very tempted to quit reading numerous times. I did become more involved in the last quarter or so of it and was somewhat surprised at the outcome.
