review: Another quick listen...marriage and family gone awry 2018-05-01T19:27:00+01:00 2018-05-01T19:27:00+01:00 http://hurricanesfan66.booklikes.com/post/1663588/another-quick-listen-marriage-and-family-gone-awry hurricanesfan66 http://hurricanesfan66.booklikes.com Interesting conclusion, I am thinking, to Spenser's relationship with the Gray Man.  A spoiled rich girl's wedding gets ruined when Gray Man comes to shoot her would-be husband and then you find out he is the father who kidnapped his daughter.

review: Typical Spenser, Atypical Story 2018-04-12T12:48:00+01:00 2018-04-12T12:48:00+01:00 http://hurricanesfan66.booklikes.com/post/1656908/typical-spenser-atypical-story hurricanesfan66 http://hurricanesfan66.booklikes.com Spenser books are great just when you need something to listen to and not think much about.  In this one, we see an art heist and murder and then putting the pieces together.  The Otto/Pearl (dogs) side story I could've done without, but I did like the story with the mother and daughter and the 'father' coming back into the story and the Holocaust tie in.  I would've like to hear that developed further.

review: A Decent Stand Alone Prequel for Maze Runner 2018-04-08T17:57:00+01:00 2018-04-08T17:57:00+01:00 http://hurricanesfan66.booklikes.com/post/1656228/a-decent-stand-alone-prequel-for-maze-runner hurricanesfan66 http://hurricanesfan66.booklikes.com Going into this read I did not think it would capture me.  Seems like the 2nd and 3rd in most of these YA dystopian books do that to me.  Hunger Games.  Divergent.  Most of these series tend to get worse with age.  With The Kill Order, however, I was pleasantly surprised.  I like the characters, although former military Alec was a little cliche.  I liked the flashbacks of the sun flare events and how the characters holed themselves up in the skyscraper in NYC.  And then their quest to find out what was going on and the crazy, zombie-like infected people around Asheville.  I greatly anticipated how this group would be connected to Thomas and Teresa, and guessed correctly that Deedee was indeed Teresa.
