My latest read was A Morning for Flamingos by James Lee Burke. This is the fourth book in the Dave Robicheaux series. This is more than just a detective novel; it's a deep dive into the heart and soul of its characters and setting.

Finished up Black Cherry Blues by James Lee Burke. This is the third book in Burke's Dave Robicheaux series. This is a strong entry in the series, but I still feel it is hard to accept some of the choices and risks the main character makes.

Heaven’s Prisoners by James Lee Burke is the second novel in his Dave Robicheaux series. I read the first book, The Neon Rain, back at the beginning of the summer. Robicheaux is cut from the same mold as Michael Connelly's Harry Bosch. I like the character, but he definitely has his flaws.

Still behind writing about what I have been reading. I have been looking for a mystery series to replace Harry Bosch. The Dave Robicheaux series by James Lee Burke was recommended. I started with the first book, The Neon Rain.
