Giving 4 stars because it's the best one of hers I have read yet (although it's still really a 3 star book)
fun cozy village mystery, set in French Canada. Would read her others.
beautifully written like all of ng's work, but not my favorite of hers
Read for book club. This was the one where the children caught on fire. Too weird for me, and in that style of impossible magical things happening in an otherwise realistic setting.
Michele recommended. Couldn't tread it ... premise too disturbing.
NK Jemisin is clearly a talented author. Another great book by her, but only if you are in the mood for her somewhat violent dystopian (yet hopeful?) worlds.
One of those quirky-main-character tales, but this one was a bit too dark and depressing for me.
Good fast paced mystery, with a protaganist (Eddie Flynn) I liked. Worth checking out others by this author.
A bit predictable, but still an enjoyable read in the psychological thriller vein
Really enjoyable read, provided you don't think too hard about whether or not the story is realistic.
Takes place in Orisha where magic has been brutally banned. Zelie goes on a quest to return magic to the people. Not bad, but not my favorite.
Didn't love it, but it was fine. This is the one with the woman on the small cruise ship, with the mystery woman in Cabin 10.
It's Dan Brown. Fun and fast paced. Don't need to have read (or remembered!) the others to enjoy.
Another one of those quirky-people books, like A Man Called Ove, or Eleanor Oliphant. Fun quick read.
Really enjoyed the premise and the writing but the ending was so disappinting; wrapped everything up like a fantasy (or more acccurately, like a romance novel - no depth to the conclusion at all).
Better than average. Mystery, main character was agoraphobic.
This was the one about the guy who went blind; murder mystery at the New Horizons Center. Liked the characters; would be worth reading more in the series.
Compelling writing and storytelling but ultimately decided I did not like the book because it was too much like violence porn.
