2.5 out of 5
—————————
Confession time: I only read the first of the 3 novellas in this book, I found myself pressed for time and the Hannah Swenson mystery was the only one I was interested in.
Saw the bad guy coming & bet I know who the corpse will be in Hannah’s next full length adventure, but I still enjoyed it.
(41) Kay Scarpetta, book 12
When I started reading this last week, I thought it sounded familiar. Then I remembered that I attempted to read it, years ago, and never got past the first couple of chapters.
I picked up Blow Fly through The Scarpetta Factor from the library last week with an eye toward getting caught up with a series I used to love.
I’m going to keep on keeping on, in hopes that Black Notice – Blow Fly were just self-absorbed, overly introspective, multi-perspective mess aberrations in what used to be a fabulous series. Started Trace and I’m losing hope, but will persevere.
This series has become way too tell, not enough show, and IMHO, the switches to the villains’ perspective in the last few books have weakened them, took away a lot of the mystery in the mystery…
(39) Raine Benares, book 5
Yay! Serious plot advancement and some very unexpected twists!
5/5
(38) Raine Benares, book 4
4.5/5 – I kinda liked the series w/ no sex — too many paranormals rely on it too heavily, and I was disappointed to see it finally rear its libidinous head in this one. Took off half a point, even though I know it’s my issue not the book’s. 🙂
