This Tender Land
by William Kent Krueger

View in Library Catalog



I enjoyed this book. William Kent Krueger mesmerizes the reader with this fictional narrative set against historical events.The book is centered on 4 orphans and their journey of hope, and faith during the great depression, to find "Home." It is a testament to how everything happens for a reason.

Little Monsters
by Adrienne Brodeur

View in Library Catalog



I enjoyed Little Monsters and yes the characters were stereo type, filled with cliche, mostly by the number plot lines, some surprises but no cliff hangers and certainly not a page turner, when Ms. Brodeur dropped the scientific language I enjoyed those scenes more, I really didn't root for any of the characters and yet I felt sympathetic for them at times, so why 4 stars? Because I basically enjoyed a fast summer read as the reading program draws to a close.

Good Night, Irene

This was one of the most interesting historical fiction books that I have read. It had a good balance of fiction and historical facts about the end of WWII. I had not previously heard of the part of the Red Cross known as the "Donut Dollies" and thought the theory behind it was good considering there were probably many American woman who wanted to contribute to the war effort but were not in the medical field or prepared to be soldiers. I did listen to the author's note at the end of the book and found his comments endearing as he shares his family history that his mother was one of these "Donut Dollies". He also describes another women who he interviewed and ultimately befriended that was the basis of the Dorothy character. Since the setting of the story is war and there are many atrocities described in detail, I do recommend this book but only to readers who have the stomach for that part of history.

Homecoming

Phew!! Finally finished this book, a mystery of family secrets that spans generations. It’s the story of family secrets and devotion. The middle took awhile to get through, but I’m glad that I did. The ending resolved-the case and tied up many loose ends. I love when I find a passage in a book that I can relate to. I can remember when I was a child and spending the summer in a summer bungalow, being so close to my mom. And, then feeling jealous when an aunt visited and I felt left out. There’s one similar scene in this book that struck a nerve with me.

This book was amazing. I loved the minimal colors and how the story progressed. I love that the AI started to have it's own thoughts and own feelings towards the end. The ending was very nice and resolved everything.

This is a fun story for anyone who likes fairytale retellings with a twist. The FMC was hysterical, and I enjoyed her chaos. Can’t wait for book 2!

The Spectacular
by Fiona Davis

View in Library Catalog



Growing up with memories of the Christmas Show as well as movies, rockettes, and the great organs brought me to read this fabulous mystery. Fiona Davis has a way of getting the reader involved in both the plot and history. Well researched Historical Fiction taking place in the 50s and 1992. The main character is Marion Brooks, age19,, who teaches dance in NYC until she is fired. Her journey to Radio Music Hall begins.
