May 30th's Friday Post

The weekend's almost here!  But first, time for this week's Friday Post.  I'll be linking up to:

My teasers this week are coming from Home is Where the Murder Is by Rosalie Spielman.

This is the second book in a series about a retired Army vet who has returned to her hometown in Idaho.  And here's how the book begins:

I could hear the footfalls of my pursuers growing louder. I verified with a quick glance over my shoulder, my heart surging painfully when I saw how much closer they had gotten.
And they were gaining.

That worked to hook me.  I had to know what was going on when I read that.

Meanwhile, at 56% into the ebook, we find this:

"I swear, Tessa. I am a changed man," Nick said, reaching for my hand.

Can Nick be trusted?  I'll leave it for you to find out.

I finished this book about a week ago and really enjoyed it.  I hope you'll come back for my full review on Tuesday.

Meanwhile, let's close things out with this week's Book Blogger Hop:

Have you ever wondered why a passionate book blogger might suddenly stop posting or delete their blog without notice?

I read mysteries.  Of course, I'm intrigued and wondering about something like that.  But I figure they had something come up in their real life.  For those who pay to have their site hosted somewhere, they might not want to pay the fees for something they can't keep up with.  As to suddenly stopping, real life can unexpectedly get in the way of what is essentially a hobby.  It probably wasn't a planned break.  Or the blog is the last thing on their minds, depending on what else is going on.

But yes, I always wonder.

I'm curious what others will say about this one.

Have a great weekend!
