A beautifully written historical novel by one of my favorite authors. Eliza Rivers, 88 years old, tells the story of her childhood growing up on Mayfield, her family's estate/farm to her grand-niece and granddaughter. She wants them both to understand how important it is to her to conserve the land and hopes they will join her in her fight. It is a very emotional story of family, young love, friendship, and betrayal.

A member of Three Pines community was found dead and inspector Gamache is called to investigate

Not your typical Stephen King novel. However, it was interesting and strange.

This is a parable about setting out on your journey in life to find your true meaning in the world (or fortune). Santiago leaves his life as a shepherd in Spain to travel to Egypt. He was told by an old gypsy that he will find his fortune under the pyramids. Along the way of his journey Santiago meets people who help him on his quest and people who hinder his journey but all the time he follows the omens to reach his true destiny. I enjoyed this book and definitely think it’s worth a read. Maybe we can all follow our omens and meet the alchemist who can teach us to go for it.

The book was good but I thought it was too long. I think she could have told the same story in fewer page

I enjoyed this book that takes place in Paris just on the verge of the German occupation. Solange meets with a woman with an interesting life story and learns of the connection they share.

A true crime writer is investigating two deaths that took place years apart at a Vermont Orphanage. She has been hired to be a ghostwriter for an author writing a story about the abuse at the orphanage, and is researching background. At the orphanage, in 1968 a young boy was found drowned, at the lake. Fifty years later his murder has never been solved, and a new victim has been discovered in the same spot at the same lake. Is there a connection? Kept me guessing. I love me a good mystery.

Marianne is a sixty year old German woman stuck in a loveless marriage and tries to kill herself. She is saved by three homeless men and her husband commits her to a mental institution. She escapes and ends up in a quaint town in Brittany, France where she makes herself a happy life with friends and joy. When her husband tracks her down will Marianne take him back and go back to her former life? Read a find out. I recommend this book. It was an easy read and you really root for Marianne’s happiness.

I liked the book beginning to end - it's simple - I liked it!!!!

Pretty solid book with well developed characters. I like how they showed the passage of time and brought them through multiple cases. I do not know a lot about true crime slueths, but while reading I felt like I had to suspend A LOT of belief. Do people inuding cops just give info to these internet people like it's nothing? Great for fans of thrillers. Just had moments where i felt the characters didn't make rational human decisions, but u guess that is for the sake of the story. Justifying ending, which is rare for the genre. Wanted a where are they now at the end for the other characters.
