Welcome to Litsy!

#12Booksof2024 Day 6: June. Easy this one. I love Karin Slaughter, love her Will Trent series and loved this book.

I almost gave up on this book in the first 30%
But I'm happy I stuck to it.

I'm a big slaughter fan, in fact I re-read the entire Grant County and Will Trent series before I picked up this one. So there wasn't a year gap of me trying to patiently wait for the next book. And I think that makes a difference.
I was in this Slaughter flow and this book just wasn't what I expected to be next in the flow

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ book 2 of the Will Trent series was pretty much episode 1 of the show, so a few spoilers for me. (I‘ve stopped watching the show to prevent this moving forward 😁) but I love Will!!! Sometimes my heart breaks for him.

#serieslove2024 Will Trent is deep undercover in Macon,keeping all secret from Sara. A case of trying to take down a criminal boss that little is known about. Sara comes to Macon after her stepson gets shot, she gets caught up in the same case. Will the lies break the relationship? Full of Slaughters very evil criminals hunted by flawed but diligent agents & cops.

This is another book that stuck with me ever since I've read it. Slaughter's brilliance and the killer in this book just totally took residence in a part of my brain and won't go.

But listening to this whilst knowing who the guilty party was just hit differently. I mean, the way Slaughter set it up so perfectly. Actually I've been listening to this whole series differently, and I'm so amazed at the little clues I've picked up this time around.

Quiet Sunday morning. I‘m reading my Slaughter book, Crosby is thinking about breakfast.

The thing that keeps me most interested in Slaughter's work is her ability to write such believable characters. I'm not just thinking about these well loved - or hated - characters, but even characters from her stand-alones still pop into my head as real people.
The way she uses them enriched the plot and further the story in ways that couldn't be done if you weren't as invested in them as she makes you feel.

Listening to tagged book and enjoying some Christmas ambiance before work this morning. Anyone know if there‘s a #holidaycardswap this year? I signed up for a lovely winter themed one, but I really enjoyed the Christmas one I did last year. Litsy is my cozy holiday home.

I know I've read this one before, but for the life of me I couldn't remember who the mastermind behind the plan was.

A quick on edge thriller, just as I'd have it from Slaughter.

3½✨

Suspenseful little short story filled with all things Will.

But not really necessary for the series, as it doesn't add to the overall story or character growth.
