First Impression Friday – With the Fire on High

Modern Witch's Bookshelf

Hey ya’ll! I am coming at ya with a “weekly” meme thanks to my friend Joe over @ Storeys of Stories! I really liked this idea because it is less commitment on my part (I don’t have to do it EVERY week, only when I start a new book) and gets me talking about books I have just started (or want to start very soon).

Straight from the horse’s mouth (if you will):

First Impression Friday will be a meme where you talk about a book that you JUST STARTED! Maybe you’re only a chapter or two in, maybe a little farther.  Based on this sampling of your current read, give a few impressions and predict what you’ll think by the end.  Did you think you’d love it and ended up hating it? Or did you think you’d hate it and wound up loving it? Or were you…

Review: King of Fools by Amanda Foody

mousaibookscom

Hey all, Dani here.

My review today is of a sequel that I have been waiting for since I devoured the first book last year. I felt completely honored that I was approved for an e-galley of this one from the publisher via NetGalley…and I’m also very much looking forward to having the finished copy in my hands. As always, I do admit that I love being able to read books early, but whether they are early or late reads, or if they are in exchange for a review, a gift from a friend, or something I bought myself, my rating and review is all honest and all my own. So, let’s not waste any more time and I’ll just jump into the review.

Summary

Indulge your vices in the City of Sin, where a sinister street war is brewing and fame is the deadliest killer of them all…

Mistaken Identity Crisis

Description

A clever thief with a sinister calling card has invaded Braxton campus. A string of jewelry thefts continues to puzzle the sheriff given they’re remarkably similar to an unsolved eight-year-old case from shortly before Gabriel vanished one stormy night. When a missing ruby is discovered near an electrified dead body during the campus cable car redesign project, Kellan must investigate the real killer in order to protect his brother. Amidst sorority hazing practices and the victim’s connections to several prominent Wharton County citizens, a malicious motive becomes more obvious and trickier to prove.

As if the latest murder isn’t enough to keep him busy, Kellan partners with April to end the Castigliano and Vargas crime family feud. What really happened to Francesca while all those postcards showed up in Braxton? The mafia world is more calculating than…
