TOKYO KILL BY BARRY LANCET
TOKYO KILL BY BARRY LANCET is the second book in the series as well as the second book of his I've read. I read the first book and thought wow the author cant top this but in TOKYO KILL he did manage to top it.
Mr. Lancet writes a book that hits the ground running. Fast paced, and twists and turns that keeps you off balance to the very end.
Jim Brodie, mild mannered antique dealer & kick ass owner of a Japanese detective agency gets mixed up with the worst of the worst, the triads who are gang members on steroids when it comes to killing and maiming. His client a WWII Japanese officer who is the triads target.
This Jim Brodie series is a must read for thriller lovers.
I recieved this book free in exchange for a honest and unbiased review.

GODPRETTY IN THE TOBACCO FIELD BY KIM MICHELE RICHARDSON
GODPRETTY IN THE TOBACCO FIELD BY KIM MICHELE RICHARDSON is set in 1969 Nameless Kentucky. A time where blacks and whites do not mix or even think about mixed relationships. Tobacco is the crop of choice and little girls dream of leaving the pain and poverty.
I was literally transported back, being a ghost in the corner & watching RubyLyn grow up with her uncle Gunnar, God fearing tobacco owner & hardass. RubyLyn wants more to her life than hardship,pain & working the fields.
The sights,sounds & the reality of the sixties come to life in Richardson's writing. You cant help but become involved with RubyLyn and her wants, & needs of a sixteen year old girl. You cant help but wish RubyLyn comes out good in the end. And you HAVE to read the entire book because of the excellent writing the author has put into the book and into RubyLyn

HELL'S GATE BY MARY MASTERS
WOW does not even begin to describe HELL'S GATE BY MARY MASTERS! I give it a ten out of ten on the old creepy story meter! From the first page to the very end HELL'S GATE takes you into a town where when you say "The devil made me do it" is taken literally. I haven't been this scared reading a book since Stephen King's Salem's Lot hit the shelves many moons ago.
Set in a little town where things just start falling apart piece by piece and things literally go to the devil, the "good guys" of the story are trying to save the day and the devil wants their souls along with the rest of the towns.
-
If you want to be scared out of you socks then you have to read HELL'S GATE BY MARY MASTERS.

BORN IN DEATH BY JD ROBB AUDIO
I love JD Robb's character Eve Dallas. I have read and re read all of her books to date.
I do a daily workout in our wellness center every morning and Eve Dallas is my means of getting through the workout. This collection I did listen to only Born In Death.
Eve, while taking birthing classes for her best friends, Mavis upcoming birth meets a single mom Tandy. And of course Eve gets a homicide call . What she doesnt figure on is in the middle of her homicide Tandy disappears & Mavis is a basket case. So Eve has to not only deal with the homicide but the missing friend. After twists and turns that you will never suspect happen the plot moves forward. No I am not going to ruin the ending! Read it yourself I will guarantee you like me will be surprised. Better yet instead of sitting in a chair reading it do like I do, listen and exercise.

FRESHWATER AQUARIUMS FOR DUMMIES BY MANNY HARGROVE
FRESHWATER AQUARIUMS FOR DUMMIES BY MADDY HARGROVE might not have a current publication day (2006) but it is still the best fish book I've read so far. I am returning into the world of freshwater aquariums after about a ten year hiatus and needed a refresher course on keeping freshwater fish & the aquariums they live in . I have always been a big fan of the "dummies" series because the experts who write them get down on my level using little technical terms and lots of one syllable words that I can understand. This book is not only good for people like me returning to the fishy world by newbies & even experienced people can maybe learn a thing or two from it. One good thing about the book is you dont need to read it all you can skip chapters that are not needed & the information keeps coming and coming . Well worth the cost this one is going in my shelf of reference for when I and my finny friends need a little advice.
