I just discovered a great new book club hosted by Penguin and Castello Cheese. This month the murder mystery 'Midnight in Peking' by Paul French is featured.I just finished this book and I loved it! This is the first book I read by the author and I am hooked.
You are able to create your own book club or join the discussion by writing a review. To top it off, there is even a competition to win a trip to Denmark.
I thought I’d let everyone know as I love making my mark in brand spanking new book clubs ;)
I just finished LA private by James Patterson. It wasn't too bad. a few twists and turns. I'm reading 11 on top now by Janet evanovich, and will be reading Mr mercedes.
"Pretty much right off the bat, I decided Booker T Adams is the best of both worlds (not quite white, not quite black). From the start of the book, Officer Booker’s moral standards land him in trouble because he refuses to turn his head when another cop beats an innocent man. Booker will not change his story which jeopardizes his job, then TERROR strikes as a bomb blows up a school bus. With so many dead and more bomb threats on the horizon, he searches to find out what and who is behind these terror attacks. It may look like these threats are racially motivated, but Booker is not sure of that. From psychopaths to con men, Booker becomes the protector of the innocent.
The sky is the limit when it comes to suspense in this book. Til the very end, you will question what will happen next, who is the mystery man, and will Booker solve the mysteries that lay before him?!?! As the first book in the series comes to a close, I am anticipating the next addition to this saga!"
( I received this book free from the author in exchange for my honest review )
This was a different read for me, so far out of what I normally read. Not in genre but in the story and plot itself. This book is more than your run-of-the-mil YA supernatural/paranormal romance. It felt, to me, like a true ghost story. It wasn't about saving the world; it wasn't about anything other than a broken girl trying to save what little of her family she had left, while trying to come to teams with her own demons. I don't believe I have ever been so emotionally invested in a story before. My heart is still pounding.

In Murder in Plain Sight
Life for Summer McCloud in the small village of Ames, Connecticut is seamless--that is until a mysterious woman visits Summer's occult shop, Tarot and Tea, searching for a book that is not in the inventory. Oddly, Summer locates the title which she's never seen before. Later this same woman is found dead next to the river and the only clues to how she died are the book of poison recipes in her purse and a note clutched in her hand--a note signed by Summer. When Summer finds out from a detective friend that she is the number one suspect she does what any sane person would do--she flees in order to unravel the web closing in around her. But instead of discovering clues Summer has visions, bringing her mother, Lila, who has been missing for five years very much into her mind. Apparently Lila and the dead woman knew each other.
Several false trails lead Summer into extreme danger, and to make matters worse she's losing trust in her abilities as an amateur sleuth. With increasingly real visions of the past, she struggles to make sense of the present. Summer must find a way out or lose everything.

He devoted his life to seeking justice. But would she get any for him?
It was an ordinary day for police officer Barry Weir. It was the end of shift, he was tired, and he just wanted to get home to his wife and kids. But someone had other plans for him, shooting him down and forcing him to make the ultimate sacrifice.
When news of Weir's murder reaches the department, it leaves Detective Madison Knight and every cop in the Stiles PD itching for revenge. It cuts Madison's boyfriend, colleague, and Weir's childhood friend, Troy Matthews, deepest of all, driving him away from everyone he loves just when they need one another the most.
With evidence pointing to a gang-related drive-by, Madison and her team investigate the town's seedy underbelly in search of justice for their fallen brother. But the deeper they dig, the more convoluted the case becomes. Now they need to figure out if this was a random shooting as part of a gang initiation, a straight-up hate crime, or a targeted kill. But with members of the Stiles PD under attack, they have to do it fast...before more officers pay with their lives.
