A little bit about what you'll find reviewed here

A little bit about what you'll find reviewed on this blog: I believe the best books involve characters you wish you could read more about long after the book is finished. Recently, I've been searching for hidden gems from the past. I read mostly fiction, and I'm a bit of a prude. I don't normally enjoy books with sex or excessive language.

Who I am:
I raised two wonderful girls, and I'm super proud of them. I enjoy reading (of course), sewing, cross stitching, photography and writing. I live in the high desert portion of Washington (which I didn't know existed until my husband and I decided to move here) and have really enjoyed my time out here. I am excited to see what God has next in store for my life!

Kill Shot (Mitch Rapp #2) - Vince Flynn

This is one of the last Half Price Books I have left. I didn't know anything about the author, and I chose it from the clearance area for $2.

Mitch is taking out people on his hit list when he's set up. Now he's on the run from everyone, including his own handler. He doesn't know who to trust, and he's injured.

This book started and ended well. The problem was the middle. Everyone just kept talking back and forth about what to do next. Mitch was trying to convince his girlfriend he wasn't an unprincipled assassin, and the CIA was trying to decide what to do about Mitch.

I really did enjoy the ending. The middle was such a drag, I kept finding other things to do besides read this book. I would even pick up my nonfiction Kindle book instead of this one. And it's pretty dry!

There are 25 books in this series, but I'm not going anywhere near any more of them. They're just not for me.
