March Mini Musings
Bad Girls Don't Die: This was a so-so, fairly quick YA supernatural read. I listened to the audiobook. The only reason I picked it up was I kept seeing it on the shelf at my kid's middle school book fair. Honestly, it was kind of forgettable. It's the first in a trilogy, but I seriously have no desire read the other two.
Murder Beyond the Grave: I have always likes real crime books. In this volume, there were two murder stories. Each one was interesting and sad at the same time. I'm not sure I loved the dramatization of the stories, but it was a quick read and kept me engaged. There are a few other volumes in the this series, so I'll be checking them out soon.
Haunted Nights: This anthology has 16 never before published short stories. For me, this was a mixed bag of creepy and boring stories. It's definitely not one to read all the way through in one sitting. The stories tended to blend together after a while. The one that I thought was the creepiest was "Dirtmouth" by Stephen Graham Jones. There is something in here for everyone.

I've been a James Patterson fan for years, but I've never read any of his true crime stuff. Have you read his fiction? If so, how do the two compare?
I would say they are pretty similar. Even though these were true crime, they read like fiction.
