I have always liked the Hurricane series and the Jazz series of running shoes.  This was another great shoe, as expected.

I was happy to find this series. I don't know who I like best, Granny Lassiter, with her Florida Keys recipes, Charlie Riggs who gets to the point and teaches me Latin, or Jake - who is totally entertaining. What more can I say, I'm always looking forward to another story.

As I mentioned quite a few stories back, I have become addicted to Mr. Thomas' series on Jess Williams. Now I'm worried about what I'm going to do after #50 gets read. As usual, this one has been GREAT!  Thanks for so many wonderful hours of reading!!! Please continue to write more, Mr. Thomas!

I have read all of the books in this series and I must admit that I have become attached to them. It seems that in other series I have read that the books just seem to run out of energy. But not Bernard Cornwell he keeps it interesting and intense. Very good read.

This is my third pair and I love these as much as the first!  I try to make sure I don't go more than six months in a pair or my plantar fasciitis will start to act up.  The hurricanes are the best running shoe I have found for my foot!

I read the first four books in this series when I was recovering from an accident.  I got hooked on them.  I love the characters in the book, I love the descriptions of the landscape and the people of Botswana.  They are great light reading.  I am so glad that they are making a tv series based on the books.

I've been so weary of series lately, especially urban ones that I always read reviews before I purchase now.  I read some good and the hardly bad and I gave this series a try.  I'm glad I did.  I was hooked and read the books back to back.  I'm glad I was fortunate to do that since all the previous books ended in cliff hangers.  I don't have the patience with cliff hangers and I lose out on completing series because I loose interest.  I never lost any with this series.  A lot of it was crazy but most of all entertaining.  I really enjoyed it even the parts where I was like,now come on, I liked those scenes too.  Great job.

I found this series by accident and LOVED the first book so much I have bought the entire series on audio (there are a couple of the books that are no longer available that way, so I had to break down and read a book) but Doc Ford is just the bee's knees and I love the adventures and details to life on Sanibel Island. Sanibel Island is a real place and RWW draws on his experiences as a fishing guide to write the stories. I have a friend who lives in Florida and vacations there and there is a Doc Ford Restaurant there with great seafood (so he tells me) and kind of a Doc Ford fan club. I hope and pray the stories never end.

I  enjoyed this series and as a long time resident of the Gulf Coast - East Texas area and current Central Texas Georgetown - Austin area  resident I especially enjoyed the accurate descriptions of the familiar scenes of my life. I am really looking forward to the fifth book!

I've been with this series since the beginning. I discovered it at about the time the second book was released. This being the second to last book feels so sad! I'm really looking forward to Havoc next year. That being said, Courage was a home run, this series has held my attention this whole time and continues to entertain me. I don't usually read any series past 4 or 5 books because I stop caring about the characters. Because the main characters are a family, I keep waiting for them all to be united and everyone to be paired up. Ms. Longford has a movie or several in her future once the people with the big bucks discover her. This is a clean series of books that I let my teen daughter read. I hope once Ms. Langford wraps this series up that she'll have the time, inclination, and ideas for another series. We'll happily gobble that one up too.

I checked Death's Rival, book 5 of the Jane Yellowrock series, out from my local library. A very interesting plot for this story. I love Jane and Beast more and more as the series progresses (still on the fence about Rick). Fast-paced, as always, but Jane has ventured far away from New Orleans, so not as much focus on the usual cast of characters, and I miss that. Can't wait for the next story.

I didn't like "Running Dark" as much as Freveletti's first book in this series -&nbsp;<a data-hook="product-link-linked" class="a-link-normal" href="/Running-from-the-Devil/dp/B0027KRRKM/ref=cm_cr_arp_d_rvw_txt?ie=UTF8">Running from the Devil</a>.  It started on a wrong note for me - I can tell you if I was knocked off my feet by an explosion and then injected with an unknown substance, I would be a HECK of a lot more concerned than our protagonist, Emma Caldridge was.  She acted like "oh no big deal - I'll finish the race I'm in.  And then possibly go get my blood tested."

I did enjoy the middle section of the book concerning the Somali pirates and their warlords - very timely.

Cruise ship, bioterrorism, running from and fighting off the pirates, a Vulture, a daring clamber up the side of the cruise ship for Emma - all kinds of action again in this second book of the series but it fell kind of flat.  It was still enjoyable but not as "fun" as the first.  Also, I would like to read one of these books where Emma REALLY uses her ultramarathon skills.

I had enjoyed the beginning of the romance between Emma and Cameron in&nbsp;<a data-hook="product-link-linked" class="a-link-normal" href="/Running-from-the-Devil/dp/B0027KRRKM/ref=cm_cr_arp_d_rvw_txt?ie=UTF8">Running from the Devil</a>&nbsp;but the romance was lukewarm in this book.

The third book in the series&nbsp;<a data-hook="product-link-linked" class="a-link-normal" href="/The-Ninth-Day/dp/B005GFPYGY/ref=cm_cr_arp_d_rvw_txt?ie=UTF8">The Ninth Day</a>&nbsp;will be released on September 27.

I was a fan of the author's other works and thought I would give this series a try -- even though I am not necessarily a huge superhero or comic book fan. But this series has made me a believer! As with her other series, the characters drive the series, are well developed, and show growth in every outing. While Vanderlinden's view of the future is a little grim in all of her books, there is always a small sliver of hope, a light in the darkness and good eventually wins over evil. But her heroes are far from saints, and this is why I like her books so much: Her heroes often triumph in spite of themselves, and are very human -- even when they are super-human.

This has been a really fun series, and the latest entry is no exception.

Jana DeLeon is a fabulous writer and a very funny one. These books will have you laughing out loud, in public!

The bayou and southern Louisiana come alive in these books, as do the Southern manners and sensibilities. If you've never been to the south, read these books and you'll have a good feel for it; if you've been, or are a southerner, you'll definitely recognize this place and these people. And our intrepid Fortune, a Yankee trapped in a small bayou burg, just keeps learning what it means to be southern.

Good writing, good storytelling, good sense of place, good character development; good book. Really, really good book.

The excitement in this installment of the series is palpable, and we get some resolutions that have been a long time coming. That said, this series isn't over by a longshot. Which reminds me: This book will be more fun for you if you've read the preceding entries, so go get Louisiana Longshot and start the adventure today; you won't be sorry and you'll discover a world that is by turns dangerous, mysterious, hysterical, romantic, exciting, scary, deadly, humid, comical, and often filled with gators.

Had this collection(Twilight) series when I was young. Loved them, but when I lost them in Hurricane Andrew, and due to the fact that they are no longer in print, could no longer find them. Thanks to the seller and Amazon.com I have been able to get my collection going again.

I really like this series, so much that I wish I could move to Platts Landing. And when I grow up, I want to be Sheriff Marge. I hope  Ms. Jones has many more books planned; she's hooked me as a loyal reader.

I loved watching this series on TV.  I know it's pretty mindless, but the series, as do the novels keep my interest.  I just feel good when I am reading them.  I thought, Jessica Fletcher, and Hawaii, two of my favorite things.  Was not dissappointed.
