Breathless (click on title for my review).
by
Published May 3rd 2022 by Anchor Books
Setting: Manaslu, Nepal - the eighth-highest peak in the world
About the book: A high-altitude thriller that will take your breath away--Journalist Cecily Wong is on her most dangerous climb yet, miles above sea level on a mountain in Nepal. But the elements are nothing compared to one chilling truth: There's a killer on the mountain.
I'm half way through, and find it very suspenseful and informative about the dangers and thrills of alpine climbing and mountaineering.
Bad Cruz
by
Kindle Edition, published November 10th, 2021
I'm enjoying this romantic comedy on Kindle Unlimited.
About the book: Two unlikely people - a quarterback turned beloved small town physician and a single mom with a bad reputation - find themselves thrown together on a pre-wedding cruise meant for their entire families. Several factors could prevent them from getting along.

Yeah I'm wondering if Kindle Unlimited would be worth it. The top novel looks scary ... as if climbing a high mountain wasn't hard enough!
ReplyDeleteI've found mystery series on KU in the past that I really liked. Viveca Sten, Elly Griffiths, etc.
DeleteThose both sound like good summer reads.
ReplyDeleteYes, they are.
DeleteBoth books sound good. I love Kindle Unlimited. I'm always finding cozy mysteries and romances to read on there. Have a great week!
ReplyDeleteI've read some good mystery series on KU
DeleteI am tempted by Breathless. Enjoy your week! Here are my WEEKLY UPDATES
ReplyDeleteThe book does leave you breathless.
DeleteKindle Unlimited has never seemed worth it to me, though I mostly read kindle books. I know a lot of people are beginning to question why they have it.
ReplyDeletebest... mae at maefood.blogspot.com
I found some good mystery series by authors such as Viveca Sten. Too bad Elly Griffiths is no longer KU but paid books.
DeleteBreathless looks great! I read a lot of KU books. I try to help self-published authors on my blog, and most of them are on KU, so I can give them a review and they get credit for pages read.
ReplyDeleteI like to read good indie authors as well.
DeleteOoh Breathless sounds fabulous. For some reason I love it when books are set in remote locales like that...
ReplyDeleteI dislike the cold but am drawn to these settings too.
DeleteBreathless sounds like fun. I'm going to look into that one a little more closely. :)

I found mystery novelist Viveca Sten on KU, and am so glad.
DeleteBad Cruz looks like fun. Happy reading.
ReplyDeleteIt was a lot of fun reading it, sleazy sections and all.

Parts of the book are very funny.

ReplyDeleteI would have loved to climb the high peaks, in another life!
