This is another series I read with a group on Goodreads and finished earlier this year. This book series was developed into the television series Rizzoli & Isles that aired on TNT starring Angie Harmon & Sasha Alexander. The books are much grittier than the television show, however. Detective Jane Rizzoli & Medical Examiner Maura… Continue reading Die Again by Tess Gerritsen

If Ms. Fields accomplished nothing else with her story, she’s forever… Continue reading In Pieces by Sally Field
