The Golden Couple

This book was just OK. The first few chapters really drew me in and made me want to read more, but the ending was such a big let down. It moved quickly, but had such a disappointing ending.

There were parts I loved about this book and then parts that I felt oversimplified complex issues.

This was a great summer read for me. It kept me interested and wanting to keep reading to see what happened next. I am not a fast reader at all but was able to finish in a few days and really enjoyed this book. I would recommend it for a quick easy read.

The Alchemist
by Paulo Coelho

book cover


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.

Murder At The End Of The World

This book was not for me. It wasn't as well written, and it was full of too many plot points. Plus, most of those plot points were entirely unnecessary. The story was full of sci-fi clichés. There were no characters worth rooting for or caring about, and anything they did wrong, led to zero consequences.

With A Vengeance

I my never ride a train again and that is the only spoiler. Most definitely worth the read. I was so engrossed that I was almost late for work, and I work from home. With A Vengeance by Riley Saeger is Not a perfect 5 stars but really close. By the way, don't keep guessing, just keep reading.

Six Of Crows

This is a young adult fantasy book that revolves around a group of six “friends” that go on a heist. I loved this book! Five out of five stars! It was so good. It is a little confusing because the book is written assuming the reader knows background of the world, however I did not read the Shadow and Bone trilogy before this. However, it is not difficult to catch on with the help of google and reading on. The author did a really good job, in my opinion, writing the characters and showing their growth and development. It’s also very nice how the author writes the friendships and relationships. I love the characters and feel the emotion. Beautifully written! Definitely recommend to fantasy fanatics.

book cover


This well-researched novel is based on the true story of how Vincent Van Gogh's paintings were brought into acceptance as worthy art. Vincent's brother, Theo Van Gogh, supported the artist, and was himself an art dealer. One year after Vincent’s death, Theo dies. His wife, Jo Van Gogh, struggles to fulfill Theo's dream of bringing Vincent Van Gogh's art to fame. The expected response to her husband's death was for Jo to return home to live with and be supported by her father. She fights this, and fights against societal norms by trying to instill herself into the all-male world of selling art. She is rebuffed by the men, who don’t believe a woman can possibly understand business. For the sake of her son’s future inheritance, Jo does all she can to promote Vincent’s work and gain an international following for his drawings and paintings.

Never Flinch

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.
