expected better

good book but I was expecting a better ending. narrator is awesome, really enjoy her

Need the Next One Now!

I'm back with book two of the Emma Griffin FBI series, and dare I say it? I think our little Emma is maturing a bit! The first book our main character was lacking some much needed common sense to be taken seriously as an FBI agent, and I found that this book improved on that! I like that this series is taking us through some character development as we get a brand new case on top of that!

I am glad to say that the narrator remained the same between the first book and the second. I mean, it makes sense to keep the same one for a series and would be quite jarring if they hadn't. But I'm also just really glad because I think that she does a phenomenal job and is perfect for this series! And I stay true to my original claim that a crime driven plot is the PERFECT book to read in audiobook form. It's like being read a scary bed time story and that makes my morbid self quite happy! Especially with spooky season upon us!

Now, I found this book slightly less "scary" than the first one (not that I really find either scary per-say, I just know other people will). And while that mildly makes me sad, Rivers does make up for it by further development in other areas. So each book has it's positives and seeing how this series is evolving just makes me want to continue it even more so! So I'm excited to see what comes next and what new changes/adaptations I might see!

Great read. I would recommend all of her books.

I really enjoyed this book! I am looking forward to reading her third novel very soon

Emma griffin series

AJ rivers is amazing. I am always looking for something new and I found it with The Emma Griffin series. Always on the edge of my seat wondering what she will stumble upon next!

Chew, chew then blow

You’ve heard of the Bubble Gum generation… preteens crazy about Justin whatever his name is.. this book was a bubble gum story. Not very exciting and very predictable. I read two of this author’s books to make sure of my decision not to read another.

I thought I knew who was kidnapping all the kids.

Book 2 in the Emma Griffin FBI series was quite the 'page tuner.' I thought I knew who was kidnapping all the kids. I was wrong. But that is the point of a great mystery. I was definitely surprised at the end. I still have so many questions about who is stalking Emma though. Again point in favor of it being a series, but man, I want to know.

Claire Duncan was great as the narrator. I flew through the story in a day.

Good read

kept us entertained and guessing who the villain was on our long drive. just bought the next in the series. looking forward to starting it.

Review

This book was really, really good. Like the first book it keeps Ur attention and it kept me wondering who did it.
Can't wait 2 read Book 3!!

Good, silid entertainment

AJ Rivers does a good job writing fun to read mysteries. Her characters, whie not complicated, are good to read whether good or bad. There're also good reads if you have less time to spend on your hobby. They are shorter, and sometimes a good little read is all you need.

Loved it!!

The storyline is very good. Loved it. Will read more if A. J. Rivers books.
