Book Review: The Murderous Type (The Bookstore Mystery, #2) by Sue Minix

The Murderous Type (The Bookstore Mystery, #2) by Sue Minix was published on May 25, 2023 and is about a crime writer named Jen, who has taken over her friend's bookstore.  When the mayor and a local restaurateur die, Eric, a local police officer, becomes a suspect.  Jen knows she has to prove his innocence. A huge thank you goes out to NetGalley and Avon Books UK for approving me for an Advanced Readers Copy (ARC) of The Murderous Type (The Bookstore Mystery, #2) by Sue Minix.  I love Minix's first book in the series so much, I knew I had to read the sequel.  I received this book for free in exchange for my honest review. Where has Sue Minix been hiding?  She is an amazing author, and I have just fallen in love with her mystery series.  I could just gush about her talent as a writer.  This sequel virtually picks up where the first book left off.  With that being said, it can be read as a stand alone novel, and the reader won't feel like they missed anything because the a

Book Review: A Storm of Swords (A Song of Ice and Fire, #3) by George R.R. Martin

third book in the game of thrones

In the third installment of A Song of Ice and Fire series, A Storm of Swords by George R.R. Martin, one of the five fighting for the throne is dead and another is in disfavor. As the war progresses, Daenerys is making her way a continent with her dragons and army. Meanwhile, the wall is being protected by the brothers in black against the wildlings.

Holy cow! This series just keeps getting better and better. I absolutely loved A Storm of Swords (A Song of Ice and Fire, #3). Even though it's a fantasy book, it has a bit of everything in it, and both men and women alike would enjoy the story.

The writing, character development, and storyline are absolutely amazing. I found myself completely absorbed in it and forgetting where I was because I could see it all playing out in my head as I read. My favorite characters are still Tyrion Lannister and Jon Snow. Arya Stark keeps growing on me and is now one of my favorite characters too. The book ends in a cliff hanger. I don't know what I would have done if I had to wait several years for the next book to come out, so it makes me happy that I waited so long to read this series.

As far as complaints go, I don't really have any about this book other than how long it is, and at times, it can be difficult to keep up with all the different characters. Luckily, there is an appendix that has a list of all the characters and what houses they belong too. This helpful if I need to reference it.

I gave A Storm of Swords (A Song of Ice and Fire, #3) by George R.R. Martin five out of five stars. If you enjoyed this book, I recommend Desperation by Stephen King.
