I’ve been enjoying Will Trent and Not Dead Yet recently; they are both pretty good shows to get into. I like the sound of some of the books mentioned here; now that I’m really on a good reading kick I am always looking to add titles to my list!

Have you watched Will Trent? I read all the books, so I’m a bit scared. I don’t know what to expect and if I will be disappointed maybe. Have a great week.

No. I don’t think that this series would be for me Rolé.

I have three of those books on my TBR, so thanks for the reminder that I need to get to them. I haven’t starting watching the Will Trent series, but I do want to. I hope you are having a great week, Jody.
