1st to Die (Women's Murder Club, #1) by James Patterson

21st Birthday (Women’s Murder Club #21)

Review: 21st Birthday - Book #21 Women's Murder Club - James Patterson and Maxine Paetro - March 2021


I have been for years a fan of James Patterson's books ever since I discovered the 2nd book in the Women's Murder Club at a book sale. Some of his books are misses and others are hits. A couple of his series that I have stayed faithful to are the Alex Cross Series and the Women's Murder Club series. However, this one had me questioning whether like the Stephanie Plum series by Janet Evanovich which is up to Book #27 whether this series is on its last legs. I just felt that this particular one wasn't as good as the others as it felt so open-ended and just a whole bunch of theories being chucked out as though we had several murders, everything about it and the evidence was all circumstantial and nothing could stick and then when it did, they chucked a whole new angle on the story which ruined their chances. I did however have a little chuckle in this book as there was a comment about Lindsay and Claire being likened to Rizzoli and Isles. It made me laugh as the actress who played Rizzoli in the TV series was also the same actress Angie Harmon who played Lindsay Boxer in the TV adaption of Women's Murder Club.  This book starts with a missing person's case of a daughter and her baby, no one seems to believe the mother of the daughter except for Lindsay and Cindy. As the hunt continues, we have bodies washing up, being found in the local park and high school grounds. Are they all connected? Find out in 21st Birthday by James Patterson and Maxine Paetro today.

Review: Steel Princess - Rina Kent

Review: Steel Princess - Book #2 Royal Elite Series - Rina Kent - December 2019 At the end of Book #1, we were left on a cliffhanger of Elsa being pushed into the pool. At the beginning of book #2, she is saved by a newcomer to the school - Knox.  We can see some friendly flirting but nothing more going on between these two, but it riles up Aiden who still has this mindset of "if I can't have her, no-one can" especially since he is supposed to be engaged to Silver Queens. During Book #2 Elsa starts to recall some more memories and goes to Dr.Khan in hopes that he can open her Pandora's box and can restore her full memories of what happened before she was seven years old. We also catch a glimpse during this book of her past and why Aiden King's father blames her for his mother's death and why Aiden considered Elsa a ghost. I liked this book as it was more intense with Elsa's memories and past returning. In Book #2 it is revealed about he...

  Review: Punk 57 - Penelope Douglas - October 2016 As soon as I read Bully by Penelope Douglas, I was in love with this author. So when she released a new one who had my favorite theme of penpals and that whole friend to lovers going on, I knew I had to read it. The book started out with a bit of background where we learned about how Misha and Ryen were placed together in a classroom project penpal program. The pair continues to write to each other right through the year, and then they take it to the next level and continue through the rest of their schooling. Fast forward to high school Misha is in a band and Ryen is out with her friends and they complete a scavenger hunt form. Ryen is not what Misha expected especially from her letters. Tragedy occurs, and Misha turns up at Ryen's school under a fake name. This doesn't go over too well as Ryen is nothing like her letters, in fact, she is as fake as can be and Misha aka Masen hates her, in fact, she...
