Cold Zero by Brad ThorCold Burn by A.J. Landau
My rating: 4 of 5 stars
A fantastic follow up to the first in the series, Leave No Trace. The same characters return to a new situation that involves the national parks, this time in Alaska and Florida. Great story, fast pace, and the science in this one was spot on.

Leave No Trace by A.J. Landau

This was my first book by A.J. Landau, and it did not disappoint. Loved the story, the action, and the message that it carried.
The Accidental Joe: The Top-Secret Life of a Celebrity Chef by Tom Straw
My rating: 4 of 5 stars
An excellent summer read. This book had everything going for it – nods to celebrity chefs, romantic locations in Paris and Cannes, and a great mystery/spy story. Tom Straw is no stranger to popular fiction, and I was not disappointed with this book.
The Accidental Joe: The Top-Secret Life of a Celebrity Chef
The Gatekeeper by James ByrneArmored by Mark Greaney
My rating: 5 of 5 stars
Loved this book! It was exceptional. I get worried that when an author starts a new character that it will feel like a copy of an older, more established character (Gray Man). This was a pleasant surprise. The main guy, Duff, is a good change of pace and I am sure that there will be more adventures in his future! Well done, Mr. Greaney!
Upgrade by Blake Crouch
My rating: 4 of 5 stars
Blake Crouch does not disappoint! Loved this book, just enough accurate science to keep me interested with the perfect amount of action to keep it fast moving. There have been other stories relating genetics with an action thriller, but this one is a class above many of the others.
Highly recommend!
A Sh*tload of Crazy Powers by Jackson Ford
My rating: 4 of 5 stars
Another fantastic read by Jackson Ford. I stumbled upon the Teagan Frost series a couple of summers ago, finding the cover and title interesting on the shelf of my beloved local library. I loved it and finished it in just a day or two. Now, I eagerly await each new installment in the series.
This did not disappoint. It picked up right where book three ended and kept the roller coaster ride of the China Shop moving along its course.
Kagen the Damned by Jonathan Maberry
My rating: 4 of 5 stars
This book did not disappoint. It was so engaging that I could not put it down! Loved the main characters, and the whole story. The plot twist at the end was a fantastic surprise, and now I cannot wait for the next title in the series.

Critical Point by S.L. Huang
My rating: 3 of 5 stars
Not my favorite of the three Cas Russel books. I loved the first one – Zero Sum, I thought it was original and I enjoyed the character very much. The second in the series, Null Set, was my least favorite and I struggled to finish the book. I had high hopes for the third in the series, and while it was better than Null Set, it still was a bit of a struggle to finish. Too much depended on remembering everything that had happened in the first two books. Not enough refresher for the reader.
I didn’t really get the motivation of the antagonist and how it related to the main characters. They seemed to be two different issues, and the tie together was sort of weakly explained.
