Three Hitmen and a Baby by Rob Hart ~ a Review

by MK French

Valencia's brother goes missing, and she can't bring her toddler with her to investigate. The other members of Assassins Anonymous offer to watch over the girl. Mark, Astrid, and Booker figure they can keep the girl safe, but of course, everything goes wrong. Mark is summoned to the Russian mob boss Zmeya's lair and is tasked with killing his protege, Astrid. If he doesn't, Zmeya will kill Mark's ex-girlfriend and son. In the meantime, Booker and Astrid have to take the toddler to urgent care when he gets a fever, and their lack of names inspires the medical staff to call the NYPD. On the run from everyone, how will they keep safe and refrain from killing anyone?

7 Thrillers for Your Mountain Adventures

by Donna Huber

Book blogs are full of summer beach reads (we've featured a few of them) right now, but not everyone is heading to the water. Some people, like me, would rather spend their summer vacation on a trail in the mountains or by a campfire in the woods. I think the perfect pairing for a mountain adventure is a good survival thriller. Here are a few with characters on their own deep woods adventure.

The Sourdough Compendium by A. G. Slatter ~ a Review

by MK French

This book is made up of three collections taking place within the Sourdough world: Sourdough and Other Stories, The Bitterwood Bible and Other Recountings, and The Tallow Wife and Other Tales. These stories are the foundation of the universe A. G. Slatter wrote about in novels like The Briar Book of the Dead. The stories here involve magic and supernatural creatures that play a role in the Sourdough universe. We recognize cities like Lodellan and the fact that it's a vaguely medieval land that burns witches if they can, with a high death count.

by Donna Huber

At a time when many feel anxious and discouraged, the idea of living whole, healed, and empowered sounds wonderful--but often out of reach. Counseling, self-help books, and podcasts seem to offer temporary relief, but what about life-changing transformation?
