Book Title: Meet Me on the Mountain: The Prequel to the Cassidy Kincaid Series
Author: Amy Waeschle
Format: Kindle

Book Title:
The title of the book ' Meet Me on the Mountain ' is heartening and mysterious.

Book Cover:
The cover image of the book is a photograph of a happy couple embracing each other and also a lone traveler on a motorbike. Nothing much can be inferred from the image of the story.

Plot:
The story is about a woman, Cassidy who works and researches on Volcanoes along with her colleague Pete who as the story progresses swiftly drifts into a relationship. The character of Cassidy reflects every woman who is strong in her personality and integrity but a little timid or paranoiac in emotions. Here, Cassidy always deals with the fear of losing love and affection which are influenced by past experiences.

Though the story is a work of fiction, the statement ' not everyone will get everything they want to seek ' is narrated in a heart touching manner. I found the story very different and interesting because of late I have been reading more of Indian Fiction especially Young Indian Authors works and as I am familiar with everything Indian, a new horizon in reading is fascinating. Nowhere I have read a woman choosing a career in Seismology and I felt it very empowering. I truly appreciate the author for this.

What I like:
1. The story setting and the characters
2. The emotional travel which is very honest and relatable
3. No beating around the busy but straight to strike the chords of the heart
4. Perfect characterization and no forced drama
5. Matured romance elements with great elegance

What I didn't like:
At some places, I found the characters lost their grip and the story looked familiar. This could be because of my over expectations or the amalgamation of certain aspects might not have worked in the story.

Characters:
The characters are plotted well but somewhere the depth with which the story flew the characters fell flat.

Narration:
Engaging and heartfelt narration with many emotions is found in the story. One can feel the protagonist's pain and wail she goes through.

Language & Grammar:
A very find language with flawless grammar is observed in the story.

My Final Verdict:
A sweet, emotional and touching story

Book Title: 3/5

A decent entry in the mystery category.

Not quite suspense, not quite crime fiction, not really detective. The mystery equivalent of a beach read, but not a cozy.

Entertaining and a great way to pass the time, but not something that will linger much once you close the book on the last page.

Bonus points for refreshingly not containing any forced-in "diversity".

Great for fans of serial fiction and light mystery.

Note that while this edition is from 2021, the book was originally published in 2018. So if you want more, there are already three sequels and a prequel available.… (mais)

A new detective star is born.

Meg Dawson was always going to be a cop, so even when that didn't work out, her investigative instincts would still help her as a journalist; help her get into trouble that is. The first of a new series begins with an unexpected death and Meg sidelined from reporting on it, but that doesn't stop her. Thrilling and compelling, Amy Waeschle has created a convincing new detective. Unputdownable, the surprises just keep coming. Excellent.
