Review: Son of the Hero

Son of the Hero
Son of the Hero by Rick Shelley
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

Gil comes home for Spring Break during his last year of college. His parents aren’t home, only a note from his mother saying she went after his father when he didn’t come home and some instructions on how to follow her if she wasn’t home when he got there.

Great book. I would have been totally pissed at my parents for keeping me in the dark, too. There were a few phrases that the author used that didn’t make any sense, but I wondered if they were typos made by the publisher. Not that it mattered. Still a very good story.

This was one of Al’s that we picked up at a used book store a couple of weeks ago. When I was looking for something to read last week, I spied this one. Didn’t choose it at that time but came back to it after reading another title. So glad I did. Al said it was a good series when he noticed me reading it. It’s one he read years ago (probably already has it in a box somewhere) and bought it when he found it while browsing the used book store. Looking forward to reading the other two in the series.

Review: Wicked Appetite

Wicked Appetite
Wicked Appetite by Janet Evanovich
My rating: 3 of 5 stars

Cute. What I expected from Janet Evanovich, though not nearly as funny as her Stephanie Plum series.

The only objection I had was with the size of the font the publisher used. It was huge, which is good, but it is also deceiving. You think you are getting a longer book than you actually are.
