I love the Bosch/Ballard series. I just finished "The Night Fire" a few weeks ago which was the third book in that series.
I finished The Wrong Side of Goodbye and it was the absolute best in the series for me. It had everything, two great plots and a logical resolution. It even made me tear up a bit at the end. Who would think a Harry Bosch book could do that.
@icezeus thanks for the positive recommendation on his new series. It's always good to know someone else likes it.
I must say I don't like the new series at all. I like straight Harry Bosch-no woman involved. It's just me I think.
Sorry you do not care for the books. I just feel as if they are getting better and better.

I also started watching Bosch on Prime. The TV version is also really good. I've always liked the actor who plays Harry. (Titus Welliver, I think that's how you spell his last name) So , if you have Prime, give the series a shot. I'm on episode 5.
@NEvans2 I absolutely love Harry Bosch and will be sorry when I read the last book in the series (which will be next). I'm hoping I like Bosch/Ballard. I have Amazon Prime but never watch their shows. Maybe I'll make an exception for this when I finish the series.
I actually did not finish the Original Harry Bosch Series, because I started watching the Prime show (which is excellent by the way) and I could not go back to the books for some reason. I always picture Titus Willever, when trying to read the books and it messed me up for some reason. The Bosch/Ballard series I have no problem reading.

I like the Michael Bennett Series as well. The first book, what a tear jerker even though you knew what was coming. I move around to different series as not to get bored, so when I return to that series that is the book that I will be on "I Michael Bennett".

Today I finished Run Away by Harlan Coben. It's the first book of his that I've read and it was an excellent mystery. I plan to get more of his books from the library.

@icezeus @smoky22 @NEvans2 , it's funny how we react to actors in the major roles from a book series. I watched a couple of shows of Bosch and really did not like the actor they chose for his role. Stopped watching it.
One of Louise Penny's books was made into a TV show andI didn't like the guy they chose as Inspector Gamache either. Didn't fit my vision of what Gamache should be.
Interestingly enough, I watched The Handmaid's Tale by Margaret Atwood and thought that was very well done. Elizabeth Moss should get an award for her portrayal of the female lead. I generally don't love Atwood's books as I find them too depressing. LM

@Lilysmom I always pictured Inspector Gamache to resemble Hercule Poirot as portrayed by David Suchet. There are just too many similarities for me to ignore!
