It's Friday, so time for another Friday Post. As usual, I will be linking up to:
Book Beginnings
First Line Friday
Friday 56
Book Blogger Hop
My teaser for the first three will be coming from What Comes Around by Annette Dashofy.
This is book thirteen in the Zoe Chambers series. It was fantastic! I'll admit the teasers don't do it justice, but here's how the book begins:
Lyle Abercrombie followed the aroma of fresh coffee down the staircase of his home, through the living room, and into the kitchen.
As I said, not super exciting. Especially for a non-coffee drinker like me.
The mystery has started in earnest by page 56, where we find this exchange between two cops:
"When we get back to the station-"
Abby finished his sentence. "I'll dig deeper."
My review will be up on Tuesday. I hope you'll come back to see my full thoughts.
Meanwhile, let's switch over to this week's Book Blogger Hop. The question is:
What are some of your favorite books to re-read?
I don't do that much rereading. I want to, but there are so many new books calling my name. Among those I have reread and enjoyed over the years (some of which are calling for me to reread them) are:
Trixie Belden (especially book 3, The Gatehouse Mystery)
The Chronicles of Narnia
The Mrs. Pollifax Series (did reread The Unexpected Mrs. Pollifax last month and enjoyed it)
The Bronze Bow
The Witch of Blackbird Pond
That's it for me. Have a great weekend!
I agree that opening missed the "pop" but I'm glad you found the pizzazz not long after.
ReplyDeleteThe cover is certainly eye catching even if the first line isn't that exciting. I can only drink decaf coffee. I love the smell though.
ReplyDeleteI don't have time to re read books, I barely have time to read the books I have through once!
Have a great week!

I reread a lot of Agatha Christie and L.M. Montgomery books but other than that I'm not a big reader of most of my books. This sounds good even if the ending didn't grab you right away.
