Nice list Robin. I love The Silent Wife. I thought that she might have some Will Trent writing time during the Covid lock down, but I haven't seen anything posted yet.

Enjoy all your reads! They look suspenseful.

Thanks Sharon. I saw Karin Slaughter had a new book come out this week, but (sigh) it's not a Will Trent book. I'll end up reading it anyway. I love her books.

Thanks Laura!

Great list, Robin! FYI, The Turn of the Key by Ruth Ware is really good. If that frees up at your library, I highly recommend that one for the challenge.

Wonderful reading list! Have a great month.

Hope you have a great month

I love your list, Robyn! Some of my favorite authors. Enjoy :)

I'll read it too.

I listened to Near You by Mary Burton.

I don't like True Crime books, but needed one for a challenge. I listened to Little Slaughterhouse on the Prairie by Harold Schechter. Good narration by Steven Weber, but for some reason True Crime stories creep me out.

I also read Isn't It Bromantic? by Lyssa Kay Adams. Cute story!

Robin I love The Silent Wife. It is my favorite Will Trent book. I keep hoping that she will announce another, but I haven't seen anything yet.

I read The Firm years ago, it is one of my favorite Grisham books.

Sharon, I was happy to see that she says there will be more Will & Sara books in the future. I was afraid this might have been the last one.

I'm happy about that too. It seems like a long time between Will books, because she has other stories running around in her head.

On Monday and Tuesday I finished a couple more books for August. First I finished listening to Truly Devious by Maureen Johnson. This seems to be a book people either love or hate.
