Another One!

Fruits of the Poisonous Tree was VERY 5 star and ahead of it's time, I think.  This made me feel the way that I did about Death Masks in that it gave me a renewed sense of enthusiasm about a series.   There is no corpse in the book, as the author says in his foreword, because the murder that takes place here is rape.  I thought that was a powerful statement about the crime of rape.  And keep in mind, this was published in 1993.  Very, very, very good. 

Order Restored

Scent of Evil is the third in the Joe Gunther series and now I am back in order!  This one was okay, too.  I mean, good but not a four star.  Yet like I felt when I read Skeleton's Knee.  I liked it enough to go on the next! 

Learning More

So much to learn from reading!  Boarderlines is the second in the Joe Gunther series and I learned a lot more about Vermont!  Especially the whole Woodchuck vs. Flatlander deal!  This was good, but I wasn't sucked in that much, but I am for sure going to read the next one.  I like Joe a lot!

Trying It Out

I read Open Season with the hope that I had found a new series to love.  Joe Gunther is the guy and the series is by Archer Mayor.  It is set in Brattleboro which is a real town in Vermont and I don't know much about Vermont so it part was fun, too.
I really, really enjoyed this book so much.  I am trying out the second one, but I am not sucked in-- YET!
