Fascinating history of the emergence of a publicly funded regional police force with beat officers and plain oclothes detectives. Medical discoveries and new technology soon sparked new methods for solving crimes. Some photos, extensive footnotes with sources, and an index. A great read on a foggy day.

This book series is full of fun adventure, fantasy, and romance. It keeps you intrigued with its plot twists around every corner, or in this case, every turn of a page. I have enjoyed this series and hope and believe that you will too.

I read this for a bookclub, and it was not for me. The story follows the life of Isaac Dahl. This book isn’t that long, but the titular character’s life is (as promised) very long. The problem is, I never cared about the characters. They felt stiff. This felt like more of a catalog of events over time. Everything felt like an observation rather than emotion and personality driving action. I appreciate the LGBTQ representation in the first person protagonist but never really got into this audiobook I borrowed via Libby.

I really liked this book because it had a really good plot and it made all of the other books way easier to understand. I really liked this book.

My favorite part of this romantasy is the angsty relationship between Odessa and the Guardian. This book is filled with terrifying magical creatures, a mysterious rage-inducing sickness, blood oaths, betrayal and secrets. I loved the first 75% and then once the romance storyline transitioned, it lost a bit of steam but the action of the book soared in the final chapters (A blood bath! Big reveals! Cliffhangers!). I really enjoyed the narration though some of Samantha Brentmoor’s male voices blended together. I listened to the audiobook on Libby and am already looking forward to the next in the series.

An amazing book, full of risks and the enemy, who is supposedly always ahead. Ogres, Elves, Trolls, and more, with the human world included, this is a great book that you should totally read! It is also a thicker book, with about 730 pages.

it is good

I like what this book is about.

An intriguing, surprisingly engaging biography of a little-known president. This book shows Calvin Coolidge in all of his understated, but by no means insignificant, glory. Reading this book is the only time I’ve ever laughed out loud while reading a biography—a ringing endorsement indeed!

This book is one of a kind.I really recommend this book to readers who like intense books!
