Book review: THE DESK FROM HOBOKEN
I love a good mystery, and have been gravitating towards cozy mysteries lately. The Desk From Hoboken by ML Condike one doesn’t quite have the quirky, lightheartedness that would make me categorize it as a “cozy”, though. Instead, The Desk From Hoboken is a quiet, thoughtful mystery that offers excellent twists and turns and emotions – not at all what I expected, but so much more! Read on to learn more about the book and it’s author, and I’ll share my thoughts as well as a lovely giveaway, courtesy of Lone Star Book Blog Tours.
