Why Did I Read? I really enjoyed Brigid Kemmerer’s Letters to the Lost and was excited to see what her latest contemporary was like! My Thoughts: Well, I know one thing.

I was so fortunate to snag a copy at ALALMW and it was the first one I read from the books […]

The latest installment in the series is no different! In Hot Winter Nights, Lucas and Molly are thrown together on a case that Archer (head […]
