Waiting on Wednesday 06/26/19
Waiting On Wednesday” is a weekly meme that first originated at Breaking the Spine but has since linked up with “Can’t Wait Wednesday” at Wishful Endings now that the original creator is unable to host it anymore. Either way, this fun feature is a chance to showcase the upcoming releases that we can’t wait to get our hands on!
Mogsy’s Pick
Alone in the Wild by Kelley Armstrong (February 4, 2020 by Minotaur Books)
So happy that Kelley Armstrong is keeping these Rockton books coming. Add to that, I just finished her standalone thriller Wherever She Goes and LOVED it. I can’t get enough of what this woman writes.
“In #1 New York Times bestseller Kelley Armstrong’s latest thriller, the hidden town of Rockton is about to face a challenge none of them saw coming: a baby.
Every season in Rockton seems to bring a new challenge. At least that’s what Detective Casey Duncan has felt since she decided to call this place home. Between all the secretive residents, the sometimes-hostile settlers outside, and the surrounding wilderness, there’s always something to worry about.
While on a much needed camping vacation with her boyfriend, Sheriff Eric Dalton, Casey hears a baby crying in the woods. The sound leads them to a tragic scene: a woman buried under the snow, murdered, a baby still alive in her arms.
A town that doesn’t let anyone in under the age of eighteen, Rockton must take care of its youngest resident yet while solving another murder and finding out where the baby came from – and whether she’s better off where she is.
#1 New York Times bestselling author Kelley Armstrong again delivers an engaging, tense thriller set in perhaps the most interesting town in all of contemporary crime fiction.”

Why doesn’t the town let someone in under 18? SO no one can have kids? Effed up

Haha, it’s complicated. A place where the abused and hunted want to hide, and where white collar criminals go to escape justice, etc. probably not the best place to bring kids 😛 But that’s a good point you bring up, I don’t know what would happen if anyone in town ever got pregnant – maybe a good plot for her to explore for a future book 😉

So not the town for me!

I’ve not started the Rockton series but I absolutely adore everything I’ve ever read by Armstrong, which includes all of the Women of the Underworld and all of the Cainsville books. They’re my fave. I need to get busy with these ones. No one under age of 18…can I move there?

LOL you and chuckles crack me up 😀 And I still need to check out her Cainsville series, though I’m absolutely loving her thrillers.

I’ve never read any of her books yet, but this one seems good. Honestly all of her stuff seems good, not sure why I haven’t gotten around to it yet.

She’s so great! I do wish I’ve gotten to try more of her paranormal/fantasy books, but so far I’m loving her thrillers!
