The above are the two new books on my desk, and I am eager to read them!
I finished reading:
Sold on a Monday by Kristing McMorris; see my review.
The Lost Family by Jenna Blum
The Perfect Mother by Aimee Molloy
Flat Broke With Two Goats: A Memoir of Appalachia by Jennifer McGaha;
see my review on Goodreads.
Burning Ridge: Timber Creek K-9 Mystery #4 by Margaret Mizushima. The author's husband is a veterinarian, so this must help her write about a deputy sheriff and her police search and detect dog, Robo. A five star mystery, in my mind!

I love literary writing that includes a mystery plot!
DeleteI've been wanting The Perfect Mother...and also love the look of Murder on Union Square.
ReplyDeleteThanks for sharing...and here are MY WEEKLY UPDATES
The Perfect Mother was quite interesting. Murder on Union Square is one in a series that is standalone.
DeleteI love stories with K-9 dogs in them. I've never heard of this series before but I will definitely be adding it to my list.
