My rating: 4 of 5 stars to Sara Paretsky‘s novel Body Work, the 14th book in her “VI Warshawski” mystery series published in 2010. I read this book when it first came out, as I was already caught up in the series. I need to get back to them as IContinue Reading

All That Remains by Patricia Cornwell My rating: 4 of 5 stars The “Kay Scarpetta” mystery series by Patricia Cornwell was one of the first adult mystery book series I began reading. I also started these very young, around 13 or 14, which may not be the best thing forContinue Reading

Indemnity Only by Sara Paretsky My rating: 4 of 5 stars What can you say about VI Warshawski? She’s hilarious… and someone you’d want to know in real life. She’s got a nice chip on her shoulder, but it becomes endearing. And she takes risks. This was a great debutContinue Reading
