Mike's Picks
This book rumbles and moves like the Chevy big-block your friend had in high school; it's a little scary but it gets there in a hurry and not without a little noise. His prose swings like a hammer, and it's here that he brings humanity and sympathy to characters others might leave behind to wither and die.
WOW. This book sizzles like a fuse. So much heart and passion. I could not put it down.
I read this twice in two weeks, and I never do that. I can't stop thinking about it. Tragic, hilarious, bizarre...
I wish I could read it again for the first time.
I am so glad this book exists-- I actually cried tears of laughter. Tragically endearing. I can't wait to read everything else she's written!
Gritty and suspenseful, I could not put this down! Virgil Wounded Horse is the hard-boiled hero I've been waiting for.
These stories are tragic, funny, scary, and a little bit romantic. This collection scarred me, but left me wanting more.
A beautifully rendered (if occasionally troubling) coming-of-age story. Set in 'northern' Michigan and Montana, so the settings as well as the quality will feel familiar to Jim Harrison fans.
Looking for an out-of-the-box crime thriller?
Diamond heist? Check!
High speed chase scenes? Check!
Anti-hero "Bug" will pin you to the back of your seat and keep you there.
It's difficult to reconcile considering a killer a hero, and Clavin presents plenty of flaws, but I can't deny that this is a damn good story.
Prepare yourself to research the purchase of a matched set of Colt revolvers.
One shock after another kept my eyes wide and glued to the page. I could not wait to get this onion peeled. One of the best mysteries I've read in years.
