Stephen King's new thriller, is primarily a detective story. A Holly story. If you know King, then you know. If you know Holly then you know. A really good detective story starring some well-known characters, most of all Holly. It can be a stand alone but more fun if you have read the other Holly books. Really enjoyed this read.

Women’s Fiction spanning thirty five years. The author put a good deal of thought and effort in writing this book. (Hence the two stars) It was easy to get lost and confused as names changed and time periods jumped around. For example: Bear was also Julian and Gordon. It takes place in London, Ireland, Africa, Italy, and Paris, I believe. Not sure if the author was exploring the possible opportunities for a baby boy born in 1984 or the ravages of wife abuse, or the confused experiences of a young daughter. As I started the book, iwasrecommending it to friends who have experienced wife abuse and survived. Then I had to call back and tell them not to waste their time.

The Vera Wong books are so enjoyable, especially as audiobooks. I wish I had a Vera in my life (and yet, I also really don't... you'll understand when you read them!) This sequel may have been even better than the first one, which is hard to do. I hope we're gifted a 3rd book in the series soon!

This was a wonderful book. Una Kelly is a young woman in 1883 New York who is a grifter and thief. She is arrested for murder which she has not committed. Somehow she manages to escape the jail, and decides to enter a nursing program begun by Florence Nightingale at Bellevue. She doesn't want to be a nurse, just needs to hide from the police.

I wish I had read The Perfect Marriage in this series first. It didn’t spoil this otherwise standalone book, but I would have had some great background to add richness to the novel. I loved the cover of this book, and the creative way the sides of the book were made to look like they were smeared in blood. I was actually reading it at the oral surgeon’s office, so it made quite a stir. Anyway, this is Sarah’s second marriage. She has one daughter. She has an interesting backstory with her previous husband; he was accused of murder she defended him she lost, and he was eventually executed. She has now served her second husband of 10 years with divorce papers, as he was caught cheating on her. He would like forgiveness and to stay married. Not a chance! The story follows the complications around this divorce and the havoc it wreck's, in other people’s lives, including murder and kidnapping. and the reopening of her former husband’s case in light of new evidence. Enjoy the ride!

Ok so I'm not a huge space fan, to be honest it scares me but I am a big Taylor Jenkins Reid fan so I had to give this one a go. On the surface, as a reader I thought I was getting a novel about women in NASA's Shuttle Program, but that was only a piece of what this story was about. Pros: I'm going to be honest, I usually don't go for this kind of romance but it worked and I liked both of the main characters. I loved the dual storyline with Barbara and Frances as it added depth to Joan's character and who she was. I also loved the NASA aspect and the nods to history. Cons: I wanted more of the space aspect. The book started off on such a high note but then it dragged in the middle. Thankfully the last quarter of the book really picked up. Overall, I really enjoyed this one!

I enjoyed the first one more because of the comedic aspect of it, but the second one was just as steamy. It was an old friends-ish to lovers trope.

This is the sequel to The Woman in Cabin 10. It starts out with you thinking you made a mistake and are reading the same book again. Then it goes on with some twists and turns but it takes forever to get to those. Very slow and by the time you get to the end, you don't even really care anymore. Disappointing.

This book made me laugh, it made me cry, it made me think and it made me feel. What a beautiful, wonderful, amazing book. It is also a great choice for the 'book about art' space on the tic tac toe board!

I enjoyed this book, which tells the story of 4 well known fairy tale characters when they are around 50 years old. I figured out who 2 of the characters were right away, but took longer to be sure of the other 2. This book takes a strong stand for women's rights. Although I like strong female characters, I felt it was out of place for time period to have so many women fighting for their rights. This is the reason I gave it 4 stars instead of 5.
