Awesome book! ~~T
Great Book by Marilyn Levinson
Murder In The Air by Marilyn Levinson was a great cozy mystery. This book had it all, mystery, suspense, humor, friendship and romance. The writing style flowed easily and was an easy read. The suspense and mystery were well carried out and there were enough suspects to keep you guessing. I didn't figure out who the murderer was until it was revealed at the end. There were enough twists and turns to keep you wondering what would happen next. The characters were well developed and realistic and there were plenty of bad "guys" to take turns disliking. I liked the fact that the protagonist was an older women with a well established life, although things didn't always go perfectly in her life ( do they ever?). I would recommend this book to anyone who enjoys a well written mystery cozy with plenty of suspects and twists and turns. This is the first book I've read by Marilyn Levinson but I'm looking forward to reading more of her books.~~M. Brown
Summertime Perfection
Light and fun read...great summertime reading as it keeps you intrigued with enjoyable characters but isn't so heavy that you get bored or don't want to finish it. Levinson's characters aren't perfect people, but they are perfect for the beach or lake.~~Debra H. Goldstein
Six straight men in the cast plus free Tex-Mex food? My friend Lida Rose sure knew how to persuade me. I signed on the dotted line and dusted off my dance shoes. I knew Bad Business on the Brazos would have them rolling in the aisles and standing up
Jerry Lowenstein, an octogenarian and a nice guy, has written a fantastic mystery/ suspense novel that takes place just after WW2 on and near Bikini Atoll. He actually witnessed an atomic bomb test. Can you imagine that?
