by Joyce Nancy Drew for Adults?
I did not dislike this book, I just didn't like it. I felt like I was reading a Nancy Drew book dressed up for adults. To be honest I did not finish reading the entire book, I quit half way thru. I feel bad because I love books, I love writers, I love Book Browse but this book was so simple, so elementary that I didn't want to spend any more time reading it when there are so many great books out there. I'm hoping someone else will give it a great review to balance this out. Its just not memorable AT ALL.

by Anna A Great Find Findings is the first book by Mary Anna Evans that I have read but it won't be the last. It is a fast-paced mystery with a likable, if somewhat unconventional, heroine who happens to be a graduate student in archeology. My only complaints are two that are shared by many "popular" mysteries: The secondary characters tend to be rather one-dimensional, and the ending is a bit predictable. In spite of these shortcomings, I still enjoyed the book very much.

by Loren Archeological mystery Findings is the fourth mystery featuring archeologist Faye Longchamp. I recommend reading the first three novels before reading the fourth as there is a lot of character development with each succeeding book.
Each of these novels is not only a very well written character-driven mystery but also is filled with fascinating archaeological and historical information.
I highly recommend Findings as well as the first three novels.

I loved this book. I thought it was the best mystery I'd read in a long time. I wasn't able to figure out who the perpetrator was before the end of the story. And I really enjoyed the setting, and the background of the civil war.
I haven't read any other books in the series, but plan on doing so right away.

by Ruth Harris I Found Findings To Be
A good read. It's the fourth in Mary Anna Evans's Faye Longchamp mystery series. I'm not familiar with the author or the series, so I read the book with no strong feelings for characters and their histories. I can't say I came away with any either.
The story was entertaining while I was reading it, but I don't feel the need to search for previous or future books involving Faye Longchamp and her circle of friends. Perhaps I would feel differently had I read the 3 previous works, but I think books should be able to stand on their own.
I found Findings to be a quick, average read.

Here you have all the ingredients for a good book to read on vacations: an island full of artifacts, the pot hunters, the Confederacy's gold, the determined archaeologist. Not a Pulitzer prize just a nice read.
