I guess this is the time of year when I read the least. I'm busy, like everyone else. Holiday parties, shopping and my personal favorite...baking! So that being said I haven't finished a book in a while. Sure I've done some looking, checked out a few online but I haven't actually finished one. I guess that doesn't mean I can't write about something.
I love books in a series. I get very attached to the characters. I love an author that really makes you identify and fall in love with the characters of a book. Books that are in a series give the reader an opportunity to really get to know the main character. In fact if a book is a stand alone novel I usually get very sad at the end. It's like saying goodbye to a dear friend!
Right now I am listening to book number 12 of the Harry Bosch series. Harry Bosch books are written by Michael Connelly. Connelly also wrote "The Lincoln Lawyer", which was just made into a movie. Harry Bosch is an LAPD detective. The books are your basic mysteries where Harry tracks down the killer and saves the day. Harry is flawed like any good detective in a book. Over the course of the books the reader really gets to know him. He's on a mission in life, to be a voice for murder victims and hunt their killers. I like him and listening to him brings it to a whole new level. This particular author includes some jazz music on his audio tracks too. It's very Harry. If you like mystery novels I would give Michael Connelly a try.
Merry Christmas!
