Review: The Magician Murders

The Magician Murders The Magician Murders by Josh Lanyon
My rating: 2 of 5 stars

...what the hell was that?!

If I hadn't seen the hit/miss style of writing in the first Adrien English book, I wouldn't have believed that JL wrote this.

Apart from the relationship growth (mostly Sam) and the minuscule character growth (all Sam), this book was one boring dud. I really need Jason to grow. up. fast! You can't want Sam to communicate and then disregard everything he says. And you've really gotta stop making the worst decisions ever to prove that hot-shot BAU Chief Sam Kennedy didn't settle for a pretty boy. Talk to him the same way you're begging him to talk to you. Just...ugh...be an adult.

Ended on a cliffhanger, but I'm fine with that because it means they'll be back.

Review: Dirty Money

Dirty Money by Liliana Hart My rating: 5 of 5 stars This really wasn't long enough. The story stops at 88% for some reason, but fine. I'll accept that because it was awesome! The stakes were extremely high this time around after the cliffhanger in the last book. I'm happy that Jack and Jaye are evolving as a married couple while dealing with old ghosts. This book wrapped up a 4-book story arc, and while it feels like a good place to end, I hope that it doesn't. View all my reviews

Silent in the Grave by Deanna Raybourn My rating: 2 of 5 stars #PopsugarReadingChallenge2019 Prompt - a book recommended by a celebrity you admire: The incomparable Felicia Day (actress, author, all around good egg) rated this 5 stars in her active Goodreads library. ...and I won't hold it against her. Once upon a time, Modern Millie travelled back in time and did a bunch of things that were not possible for women during the Victorian era. Along the way, she met an android disguised as a human that could slice and dice and speak every language. He also had a superpower: to annoy this particular reader to the point of pain. Literal pain, mind you. I rolled my eyes so hard and often that I gave myself a headache. Together, they set out to alternately annoy and bore the shit out of me, as it was also her superpower; and solve a murder that I, myself, solved before 40% of the book had been read. Unfortunately, they survived to annoy and angst me into...
