Desire by Dennis A. Rolazina | This book is a romance and thriller packed into one.

New Orleans is beautifully captured in this engaging book.

None of This is True by Lisa Jewell
A chance encounter between two women on their birthday turns into a mystery thriller. The two strike up a friendship, which becomes more bizarre and entertaining with every page. I’ve never heard of birthday twins, but if I find mine, I will keep it to myself. It is a book you can’t put down.

Matlock – CBS

Each week, she gets a little closer while working on a new case. Bates is great at playing the old attorney forced out of retirement in her quest for answers.

Say Nothing – Hulu
This nine-part mini series is based on the book by the same name, which I have reviewed previously. It takes place in Northern Ireland during The Troubles and the rise of the IRA fighting for a unified Ireland. It is well worth the time to watch it if you have wondered how one country can remain so divided. I watched the series in two days. It was that interesting..
