Love the Crow mysteries!

I couldn’t wait for this book to come out. I’ve read the whole series and can hardly put them down.

Another friend crow mystery

I just love these books. Their imaginative and entertaining. I also adore the reader. She reads Lydia so well.

Love a Crow Investigations book!

Absolutely love this series. It is criminally underrated. Can’t wait for the next book! Lydia and Jason are a good team and I love the magic system.

The jack the router storyline

loved it, flow was good, hate that it ends on a cliffhanger though. That blows.

Did AI write this?

I love the series but Book Nine was awful. It’s like she phoned it in. I’m liking the main character less & less. She’s not evolving or getting any smarter. Her relationship with Fleet is boring. It would be so much more fun if she was with Paul Fox. The whole “Jack -the-ripper” theme is so old and overused by now it has no place in this series. Lazy writing. Little imagination. Very disappointed.
