Carl's Doomsday Scenario ~ Matt Dinniman

 

Cursed Daughters ~ Oyinkan Braithwaite

 

Clear ~ Carys Davies

 

The Correspondent ~ Virginia Evans

 Delightfully witty, subtle crafting of the character.

Told through letters written and received by the elderly, fusty, fiesty Sybil

The Children of Eve ~ John Connolly

 Usually a new Connolly is like slipping into a comfortable pair of slippers.  This was not.

It was way too wordy with useless trivia that did not enhance the plot, did not add to the sense of place, did not bring characters to life.

This was like one of those "filler" episodes in a TV series ... just setting groundwork for what is to come.

The Cliffs ~ J. Courtney Sullivan

 

Cold People ~ Tom Rob Smith

 ***+

Liked - a lot

Figure there might be a Book 2 in the works (should be to finish it properly)

The Covenant of Water ~ Abraham Verghese

 

***

Long winded, meandering, lacking a climax

The Club ~ Ellery Lloyd

 

Cold Enough For Snow ~ Jessica Au

 

The Colony ~ Audrey Magee

 **** HIGHLY RECOMMEND

A reader's delight.  

Shining language, multiple themes, lingering memories

City On Fire ~ Don Winslow

 

 ** LIKE

A lot of blah blah blah for the introductory book for a trilogy.

Too many characters; too shallow; too ridiculous,

The Candy House ~ Jennifer Egan

 

**** RECOMMEND

A worthy companion to Goon Squad though it did my head in a little trying to keep the mental jigsaw together.

Come Closer ~ Sara Gran

 

Cibola Burn ~ James S. A. Corey (The Expanse #4)

 

Caliban's War ~ James S. A. Corey (The Expanse #2)

 

Children of Ruin ~ Adrian Tchaikovsky

Claire DeWitt and the Bohemian Highway ~ Sara Gran

Claire DeWitt and the City of the Dead ~ Sara Gran

Children Of Time ~ Adrian Tchaikovsky
