Ten books read this month beginning with two from the Corning Library. The first one because the Creston Library didn't have the latest Cork O'Connor book and the second because there was such a long wait list for it.
Lightning Strike by William Kent Krueger is listed as 0 in the Cork O'Connor series because it is a prequel to all the others in the series. I really liked this flashback to Cork's youth and how he helped his father, Sheriff Liam O'Connor, find justice.
The Four Winds by Kristin Hannah takes place during the Great Depression. It begins in Texas during the dust bowl and follows a family on to the hope of finding work in California. Interesting read.
The Fallen, Redemption and Walk The Wire are the last three novels in David Baldacci's Amos Decker series. I enjoyed these books and the characters so much; hated to see it end. But there are many more Baldacci series and characters yet to discover.
Where The Road Bends by Rachel Fordham is a book I picked because a) it is set in Iowa in the 1880's and b) I wanted a paperback for bedtime reading.
Split Second is the first book in the King and Maxwell series by David Baldacci. I already know I'm going to love this series, too.
The Good Son by Jacquelyn Mitchard is the story of how an upstanding, respectable family copes with the fallout when their only son is convicted of involuntary manslaughter in the death of his girlfriend.
the collective by alison gaylin is sort of the other side of the story to the above book. In this one a woman, whose daughter dies due to the actions of her date who doesn't face any consequences, joins a group on the dark web whose members have also lost children and act as vigilantes to avenge their deaths. Interesting, but also disturbing.
Before She Disappeared by Lisa Gardner is about a recovering woman who trades her addiction for alcohol to an addiction to finding missing persons.
