Susie Fevella (susieinks) | 1798 comments I still need to try a book by Julia Spencer-Fleming. I think there is one hiding in my Kindle :)


message 3: by Ann (new)

Ann (annrumsey) | 16930 comments Lol Susie: “hiding on my Kindle” sounds so familiar! Good for space saving, but terrible for browsing. I think you’ll like Julia Spencer Fleming’s books!


message 4: by Ann (new)

Ann (annrumsey) | 16930 comments Nice month Dan! I need to get back to Ann Cleeves’ series someday.


message 5: by Barbara K (new)

Barbara K Susie, I know exactly what you mean! We may both have picked up the same Julia Spencer-Fleming e-book on the same sale.

BarryP (barrypz) | 3498 comments The kindle has gotten more manageable since they added the filters. Most of the time I just show "unread" and keep that to a few pages.

I didn't know that either Sherry! Guess we need Barry to teach us something new :) Guess I need to study my Kindle better.

Merrilee in AZ | 1121 comments Good month, Dan. What did you think of the Sandford book?


message 13: by BarryP (new)

BarryP (barrypz) | 3498 comments filter info:

When you look at the book image in your library, there should be 3 vertical dots in the lower left. Clicking on that enables you to set a book as read or unread. If you finish a book, it will automatically toggle the book to read, and new books will show up as unread.


message 14: by Ann (new)

Ann (annrumsey) | 16930 comments Thanks Barry! I hadn't noticed the filter option. On my phone Kindle app the "dots" are three lines with dots and they are at the upper left on the row with the "All or Downloaded" filter options. I was able to isolate just books, or Kindle Unlimited books or audible audio books so that is a great feature.

Dan in AZ | 2960 comments Merrilee, Lucas seemed to be operating much more on his own than is usual. Personally, I think the strength of the Prey books is the teamwork and interaction of the characters, so I didn’t like this one as much as usual.

I loved Raven Black and liked White Nights enough to buy Red Bones (Shetland Island book 3) which fell kind of flat for me.


message 17: by Ann (new)

Ann (annrumsey) | 16930 comments Bonnie: I've been thinking of trying Ann Cleeves' Vera series. I didn't even get to books 2, White Knights yet of the Shetland Island books.

message 18: by Bonnie (new)

Bonnie I think I read the first Vera (The Crow Trap) but apparently I either didn't finish it for some reason or didn't like it. I don't see it on my read shelf rated or on my tbr shelf either.


message 19: by Ann (new)

Ann (annrumsey) | 16930 comments Bonnie: That's not a good sign... Maybe I will watch the first TV episode of Vera first. :)
