message 41: by Georgann (new)

Georgann @Sharon, I also read Cast the First Stone (The True Lies of Rembrandt Stone #1) by David James Warren Cast the First Stone for #7. I had to order the second book through an interlibrary loan, but it is from here in IL so it won't cost me anything and likely won't take too long to get here. I can't wait to devour them all!!


message 42: by Sharon (new)

Sharon Rose | 12 comments @Georogann, I have to say it was a series where I was sad to see it end. A good length and a good ending for the overall storyline--but then I couldn't figure out what to read next because I wanted more.
