Book Review: Badlands by Preston & Child
Nora Kelly is back, and so is the chaos. This time, she’s teaming up with FBI agent Corrie Swanson to investigate two suspicious deaths in the Badlands of New Mexico—because apparently, digging up ancient secrets never ends well. Preston & Child do their thing: blending history, action, and a sprinkle of the macabre with characters we love (and some we really don’t). Skip shows up to make terrible decisions, Sheriff Watts swoops in just in time, and several new characters don’t make it to the final chapter—gruesomely. Pro tip: don’t eat dinner while reading the ending.

My nightstand is less a piece of furniture and more a chaotic book club where no one finishes the assigned reading.
