We read this for book club. I liked it a lot. It presents some points of view that I had never considered.

House of Breath and Sky

book cover


I was not as captivated by this book as some of Maas others. The story line continued from Crescent City but was slow to develop. Once I got the gist of the plot it did get better but I had trouble following all the side plots which eventually did come together. She does leave me wanting to read the next book in the series and I am looking forward to it the end January 2024.

I enjoyed reading the book, however having seen the movie first made it a little challenging. I liked that the book expanded on the other siblings. Very good interesting story either way.

This book kept me turning pages late into the night. Miles wrote a beautiful historical fiction book about racial history in America.

Rich Justice
by Robert Bailey
View in Library Catalog
book cover


“Rich Justice” is the third and most recent book in Robert Bailey’s Jason Rich series. Rich, a defense attorney in northern Alabama, is reeling in the aftermath of the previous book, which resulted in his suspension and a deepening antagonistic relationship with methamphetamine kingpin Tyson Cade. When Cade is brutally murdered outside a convenience store, all the evidence and popular opinion points to Rich as the primary suspect. Exiting the courthouse following his initial hearing, Rich is attacked but is saved by his long-time friends, the Tonidandel brothers. Despite this event, Rich’s trial is still moving forward at full speed. Electing to represent himself, which is always a risky move, Rich sees his one-time rival, former prosecutor Shay Lankford, as the best candidate for his required co-council. At over 500 pages (almost 15 hours in audio), the book has plenty of room for a ton of characters. These characters, both major and minor, are used in such a way that is not confusing or boring, each with a unique personality and contribution to the story. There are even honorific references to Professor Tom McMurtrie and Bocephus Haynes from Bailey’s original series. As usual, Joe Knezevich provides excellent narration in the audiobook. I’m looking forward to #5 in the series.

Dark Dive
by Andrew Mayne

book cover


“Dark Dive” is the fifth book in Andrew Mayne’s Underwater Investigation Unit series, each featuring Sloan McPherson. In this volume, Sloan and her partner Scott Hughes investigate the mysterious disappearance of fellow diver Fred Stafford. This series always presents a well-told complex mystery, while also providing interesting insights into the history, geography and geology of Florida, as well as the technical aspects of diving. I hope that there is a sixth book in progress! The audio version is expertly narrated by Susannah Jones, whose first-person characterization of Sloan is perfect, along with different voice inflections for each of the other characters. I did detect one itsy, bitsy flaw -- a true Floridian would never say “kontch” fritter; conch is “konk.”
