Emilia has an indomitable spirit. This is her story. It didn't keep me riveted but it was good enough.

Sloan is a serial liar, mostly white lies, and she lies out of habit, mostly harmless on silly things, or to make herself look better, or be liked more. Sometimes her lies catch up with her and bring on serious consequences. One day her lies bring her into contact with an apparently lovely family. She eventually becomes their nanny. But, as it is lately with Nanny situations, all is not right with this family, or with any of the characters. The beginning was slow, almost too repetitive. Some of the situations were absurd, but ok, things happen in novels. A lot of this was outrageous, and the writing at times seems YA. At one point, I thought, how is this author going to write herself out of this quandary…. she did, and it made for an adequate, if improbable twist.

Another excellent book by this author about the disturbing and shameful history of America’s eugenics program.

It took a while to get into this book and I didn’t like any of the characters but it was an interesting look at reality shows and the people that go on them

The best part of Johnny Careless by Kevin Wade were the acknowledgements. There was very little I liked about this novel. I didn't care about any of the characters - they were one dimensional - there was no character growth - they just moved along at a snails pace just like the plot.

Loved this rom-com. Highly recommend!

The author’s style is difficult to read. The storyline is interesting.

This wonderful novel describes a rarely seen time in history. It is the 1300’s, and the plague comes to Avignon. Eleanore’s mother was a locally famous healer, and Eleanore has taken over her healing duties after her mother’s death. Women who healed were considered to be witches, but a famous physician takes Eleanore under his wing. Together they try to heal those afflicted with the plague. Several characters in the book are real historical people, including this physician. Very highly recommended!
