After that I listened to The Shell Collector which I found to be rather disappointing I was expecting the usual excellent Hugh Howey instead I got bad romance. When I was younger I read a lot of mills and booney romances featuring the devastatingly handsome damaged misunderstood man and the feisty stubborn more beautiful than she realises heroine usually misunderstandings hi-jinx and betrayals occur before the standard happily ever afters which is essentially what I got in the Shell Collector. There's nothing really wrong with that it's just not what I expected from Hugh and I hope he moves away from it in his next release.

Haven't decided what is next either Wayward by Blake Crouch or Whispers Under Ground by Ben Aaronovitch.

I've been wanting to get into the Lucas Davenport books...may have to the them on a To Listen listen instead of To Read...I do better when listening to mystery type books....others lose my interest
