Fallen - Karin Slaughter
Continuation of the Will Trent series.
Criminal - Karin Slaughter
Continuation of the Will Trent series.
Unseen - Karin Slaughter
Continuation of the Will Trent series and last book that I own. I’ve enjoyed the series and the development of the Will Trent character.
Snatched - Karin Slaughter (Short Story)
Busted - Karin Slaughter (Short Story)
Two short stories in the Will Trent series that were added to the backs of the books. I liked ‘Snatched’ better than ‘Busted’.
The Woman in Cabin 10 - Ruth Ware
This is my second Ruth Ware book and while I enjoyed it (3 stars), it had the same issues as her first book. She’s an excellent writer and her writing is very atmospheric. The first book took place in a very dark, dark forest and then this one on a ship. She nails atmosphere, particularly the cloying, claustrophobic feelings of being trapped on a boat. Atmosphere becomes almost another character in her novels. But she let me down, yet again, with her storytelling. Still worth the read I think.
Pretty Girls - Karin Slaughter
If you are trying to decide on a Karin Slaughter book I would start with this one. I thought it was REALLY good. But reader beware. It is about a rapist/serial killer and there is a lot of description. I don’t even want to say too much because you just have to read it. It had me in the first 5 pages and I read it in basically 24 hours.
Never Go Back - Lee Child
I swear, the last 5 Lee Child books have been the best in the bunch and while the ending let me down a little bit, the rest of book more than made up for it. Sometimes I laugh out loud at how ridiculous Jack Reacher is but that is part of the charm of these books. Get ready to suspend your disbelief!
Total: 6 books + 2 short stories

These all sound amazing. I literally, no joke, fall asleep before I can even get through a chapter. Sometimes on the first two pages. I can read on my lunch break, but that's about it. I'm trying, I just.. pass out.

Oh, Jack Reacher forgot to tell us that he can drive a tank. That's why when he sees a tank he can just hop in. It's in his mysterious and ever-expanding backstory.
