Reviewing Degree of Guilt
Richard North Patterson’s Degree of Guilt was an exciting read. I was so interested in discovering how the story would end that I read it in one night. While I was glad I read Degree of Guilt, there were a couple of things about the book that bothered me.

Tess Gerritsen’s The Mephisto Club is the fifth book in her Rizzoli & Isles series. While the Mephisto Club isn’t the best book in the series, it was an enjoyable read.
