This is my booklist for 2014.
Here I will record books I have read in 2014. 

Some will have book reviews, some not.
Shall we start : The Lost Ones by Ace Atkins.
I read about this author's book The Ranger, and thought I would order it through the library, I also ordered this one which is the second in the series. I usually don't like to read books out of order, yes I'm a bit anal like that but I've read this one first.
I was at disadvantage in not reading The Ranger first but mainly because the list of characters have been established, but it didn't detract from the book. 
Quinn Colson has left the US army, returned to his home town to be elected Sheriff. A role his uncle had before him, there is, as is usual in these books, a corrupt powerful local bigwig who doesn't like Quinn taking over as Sheriff.   A feisty deputy, who may have or not have feelings for our self contained hero, various old characters that knew Quinn when he was a boy, his own dysfunctional family and a lot of crime.
All the people in this book are well written with faults, strengths and history which which ties them together, nobody is a saint, many are sinners, (religion) is integral to the community and the book.
I'm not going to tell you the plot, other to say it involves guns for sale, babies for sale, and people with unusual names.....Boom for instance.
The very thin sub plot concerning Quinn's pre-army girlfriend now married and heavily pregnant to another man didn't convince. There was no real spark between them, except long glances and sorry about this, long pregnant pauses.
I give it a 3.5, out of 5, I shall read the first, and wait to see of there's a third. 
Feel free to comment, recommend or not something your reading at the moment.
