This week's neglected book 

An Ice Cold Grave (Harper Connelly #3) by Charlaine Harris 

Mass Market Paperback, 280 pages Published October 1st, 2008 by Berkley Books
The voices of the dead become inescapable clues for lightning-struck sleuth Harper Connelly in this "winning series" (Booklist) of murder--and beyond--from #1 New York Times bestselling author Charlaine Harris... Harper Connelly heads to Doraville, North Carolina to find a missing boy--one of several teenage boys who have disappeared over the last five years. And all of them are calling for Harper. She finds them, buried in the frozen ground. All she wants is to get out of town before she's caught in the media storm--until she herself is attacked and becomes part of the investigation. Soon Harper will learn more than she cared to about the dark mysteries and long-hidden secrets of Doraville--knowledge of the dead that makes her next in line to end up in an ice-cold grave...

Why did I add An Ice Cold Grave to my bookshelf? 

Sometimes I like a good murder mystery thriller like Jo Nesbo, Robert Galbraith and Jeremy Bates, and I had read a few of Charlaine Harris' paranormal fantasy novels but I thought this one might be different but alas! It has been sitting on my shelf waiting for the right time, but now is not yet.

What are your thoughts? Have you read this book? Would you recommend it to others?

  1. I would love to read her Sookie Stackhouse series, but this series sounds really interesting. I may have to add the first book to my list. If you read it soon, I'll be looking forward to what you think.

  3. I read this series years ago before I blogged. I remember that I really liked the series but I do remember that the romance aspect takes a really strange turn that I didn't care for at all. I will be curious to see what you think of it when you do get the chance to read it!

  6. I have read and enjoyed others of Harris's book, but I haven't tried this series yet. It's one I keep meaning to get to though. Story of my reading life! LOL
