Book Review: The Fix by Mia Sheridan

The FixThe Fix by Mia Sheridan
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

I'm starting to enjoy mystery and thriller reads. This is one of the top I've read.

I'll admit the beginning was hard. The kids are awkward as teens in high school and we feel that. But what was hard for me was when Cami returns home. It's hard to read. There are triggers here. If you can't do rape, don't read this.

The story then jumps ahead a short time where we see who they are looking at as one of the guilty party. Then we end up in the story 11 years later. This is when things really take place.

Cami bumps into the nice boy she talked to once as a teen. Rex has always admired Cami.

Rex is so understanding for all Cami went through. And such a great help for her now. He has the skills she needs and his soft heart where she's concerned, he agrees to help her with her "Do Over".

I really like the way things fit together to find the area they need to be. Interesting to see how it works out.

There's action and danger in this story with the suspense.

There's sections added in of another. It took me some time to figure out that the story is in a different time than we were in. But all comes together in the time frame at the end.

When I thought the story would be over, we got more. Which I'm glad we did! This ending tied up all the remaining things I wanted to see through.

Audio Book Review: Anubis Key by David Wood & Alan Baxter

Anubis Key (Jake Crowley #2)Anubis Key by David Wood
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

Wow. I really get lost in these books. The adventure, danger, and the visualization of how the details are seen.

Jake and Rose on their adventure, looking for Rose's sister.

Rose and her sister aren't close, but she knows something is up. Never did Rose expect to find her sister was caught up in a search for... the Anubis Key.

This story had me from the beginning. The adventure that Jake and Rose are on...But I love that there's loads of serious thought put into the story. Jake and Rose are so smart and it shows in their details and knowledge of where they go and what the see.

I'll say, the connection of the Denver airport murals... This blew my mind. I actually went and searched to see the images as I listened to this part of the book. I love the secrets that the authors tied into these.

There is a touch of a growing connection between Jake and Rose. I do enjoy they way they respect each other and talk to each other. This is a duo I enjoy seeing work together.

I will gladly dive into the next Jake Crowley book, and any in the future.
