Haiku Reviews...


Day By Day Armageddon by J.L. Bourne



Written like a journal:
one man's fight to survive the
growing zombie hoard.


Apocalyptic fiction .... 200 pages .... 3/5 stars.
(There are a few flaws, and the ending felt way too abrupt, but overall a fun zombie read.)





Deadly Dreams by Kylie Brant


Ritual fires. Three cops dead.
Could Risa's psychic dreams help
Det. McGuire solve this case?


Mystery/Suspense .... 325 pages .... 4/5 stars.
(I really like Brant's Mindhunter Series!)





Murder at Half Moon Gate by Andrea Penrose



An inventor's murder
 draws Wrexford and Charlotte into
a maze of death and lies.


Historical mystery .... 358 pages .... 5/5 stars.
(I liked this one even better than Murder on Black Swan Lane.)




Cut and Run by Mary Burton


Missing girls, murder,
twin sisters separated at birth...
and one Texas Ranger.


Mystery/Suspense .... 323 pages .... 4/5 stars.
(Thanks for the recommendation, Rachel! I really liked this one.)




Happy Reading!

    1. Some authors just aren't good at sustaining a series. I don't know if I'm going to try the rest or not. But I had fun reading this one. :)
