Creeeepy. Good, but eerie as hell.

Nursery Crimes by Ayelet Waldman
(a Mommy-Track mystery)
Not bad, aside from the patronizing series title.

Weaveworld by Clive Barker
Ewww. Ick. Blech. I am still friends with the woman who picked this for our book club, but it was a near thing.
Seriously, this book was just nasty (wrinkle your nose while you say the word to really get what I mean)!

The 6th Target by James Patterson and Maxine Paetro
(a Women’s Murder Club mystery)
Not really worth consuming, but not too bad, either.
Too many plot threads for such a slender book—worse still, every single one of them (at least four by my count) was resolved by the end of the book.
I swear the chapters in this series are rapidly becoming a joke… When the narrative dialogue continues and there is no ‘cliffhanger’ at the end of the previous chapter, make it one chapter! Book has over 400 pages and whopping 136 chapters! You do the math. I think someone needs to tell Patterson and Paetro that they are not Faulkner…

High Profile by Robert B. Parker
(A Jesse Stone mystery)
Not as disappointing as “Spare Change” but highly improbable – a plot better suited to Spenser, an independent who would be more likely to really have the budget and time to move about the country the way his small town police force did in this book.
