The first half was hard to get into, maybe because I've never read any of the other books in the series. However, I flew through the second half.

Ready to resume my #springcleaningreadathon. Hub is going to help a friend. So time for a snack and some reading!
Decided we were having sandwiches tonight for dinner so I didn't have to interrupt my #readathon. Turkey, ham and provolone plus a good book is my idea of a good time! #springcleaningreadathon
#titlewithgood Anna Curtis is a prosecutor dealing with sex crimes. A Good Killing tells about Anna's sister. The Last Good Girl is Leotta's fifth book. #aprilbookshowers
It's spring break? My daughter had a meeting with someone and her cars in the shop so I'm chilling in dining while waiting for her to get done.
Needed to switch books for #readandeat. Somehow, The Girl With All The Gifts does not make for appetizing reading. But last nights leftovers go great with this one! #MarchIntoReading
This page turner of a mystery/thriller tackles the issue of sexual assault on college campuses. I couldn't put it down even though parts of it angered me.
#FunFridayPhoto I couldn't readily think of a favorite book w/ a college setting so I'll go w/ a recent one set at fictitious Tower University in Michigan. This 5th book in the Anna Curtis series has federal prosecutor Anna leading an investigation into the disappearance of a female student, last seen in surveillance footage w/ the rich frat boy she accused of rape. Not a fun book, but an absorbing one. With my usual Friday coffee shop breakfast.
Finished the audiobook while making dinner. This legal thriller was low tension & mostly well plotted. I like thrillers that can carry off a social issue, and this was successful in that regard. My first time with the series, but I didn't feel lost in terms of the characters' back stories. 3.5 stars. Audio: I usually like Gilbert as a narrator, but her performance felt rushed. Regardless I'd read Leotta again
Tonight's audiobook. Love that it's set in Michigan and on a college campus. Interesting characters and I have a feeling that there'll be some twists.
5th book in Anna Curtis series-a favorite legal/crime thriller series. Timely in-the-news subject-campus rape & privileged perp-but handled well. Would suggest reading the series in order but also would hand this book to any young adult headed to college for info on campus sexual assaults provided.
Getting some summer reading in while I wait for kid to finish up her class.
