The Fallen 
By David Baldacci 
This book was exciting and had lots of different story lines going on at the same time. However it was a little stereotypical with its idea of what a cop is and the description of the FBI agents. It was a little fake in that regard but if you can get past those then it was an enjoyable book that was a very quick read. It only took me 5 days to finish it which is a miracle!

Fatally Flaky 
By Diane Mott Davidson
I don't know how she writes book after book and how often a murder happens while she is catering an event and they are all good. This was the 13th book in her series and I think the next one is the last. I have gotten some real good recipes and a lot of enjoyment reading them.

Twelve Angry Librarians: A Cat in the Stacks Mystery 
By Miranda James
I enjoy this series about a rare books librarian who is curious and, against his better judgement, tries to find answers and his Maine Coon cat.

Murder at Rough Point 
By Alyssa Maxwell 
The fourth book in Maxwell's Gilded Newport Mystery series is as engulfing as its predecessors! Just when you think you have solved the puzzle, she throws you twist that you never saw coming. The author's use of precise details about Newport's mansions, lavish lifestyles and famous families makes the stories seem so real. I can't wait to start reading the next one!

Murder in the Old Vicarage 
By Jill McGown 
An English locked house mystery set in an old vicarage complete with an old lady who knows all the answers. Try to figure out who murdered an abusive husband at Christmas in the middle of a blizzard along with police detectives Lloyd and Judy.

Silken Prey 
By John Sandford 
Good read as usual. A little sad, what some people do to gain a political office. Hopefully not many. A child porn plot, and murders, a little long for him, but a good read.
