Kate’s 2¢: “Falsely accused” by Robert Tanenbaum

“Falsely accused” by Robert Tanenbaum

Kate’s 2¢: There is a plethora of in-depth biographies of authors and reviews of their books, that state the title, author, published date, and genre; as well as,     describing what the book is about, setting, and character(s), so, Kate’s 2¢ merely shares my thoughts about what I read.  I’m just saying…

   This was a very interesting and intricate narrative arc. I really enjoyed it and couldn’t stop listening until the conclusion.

Kate’s 2¢: “The Devil May Dance: A Novel” by Jake Tapper

“The Devil May Dance: A Novel” by Jake Tapper

Kate’s 2¢: There is a plethora of in-depth biographies of authors and reviews of their books, that state the title, author, published date, and genre; as well as,     describing what the book is about, setting, and character(s), so, Kate’s 2¢ merely shares my thoughts about what I read.  I’m just saying…

   The beginning of the book bothered me, because I remember my parents talking about the rat pack and the things they allegedly did. At first, they seemed real to me and it didn’t feel right talking about them – exposing their dirty laundry. Eventually, the people just became characters in a well written detective story.
