Bringing Down The House
by Ben Mezrich
View in Library Catalog
book cover


This was a fascinating book. I know that it is hotly debated how much of this story was true and how much was sensationalized, but I still found it fascinating. I personally love the science of casinos, and this was a great insight into how these people dealt with it. I am no genius and only wish I had this ability. I really liked the way the author told this story when it was told to him. I also like how he got multiple perspectives. I have also seen the movie multiple times and liked it, but not as much as the book. It made me want to go back to Vegas.

Only Ever You

book cover


Flashback, Jill and David’s daughter Sophia goes missing at the park, she is found 40 minutes later, fine, but with bug bites, or are they needle puncture marks in her arm? Blood tests reveal no drugs, no harm done. Or so they think. Then three months later Sophia disappears again. The parents are now suspects. Interesting premise. Kept me guessing as to what happened.

I have enjoyed this author’s previous books so I decided to try this one. The musical parts are very interesting, but it goes off on a weird comic book adventure that ruined it for me.

Johnny Careless

book cover


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.

How To Age Disgracefully
by Clare Pooley

book cover


A new senior citizens group is formed, but no one expects it to have the effect that it has on each person involved in the group and on the children in the day care that is housed in the same building. This book has many different characters with unusual backgrounds and personalities. The last ¼ of the book was very fast-paced, but the earlier part of the book was just OK.

A couple of college kids find each other through their love of music. They plan to go to Nashville after graduation to pursue their music careers together, but life gets in the way and only one of them goes. Their paths cross again later in life, and this is the story of how their journey continues. Loved this book. I highly recommend it. I hated for it to end.

Absolutely outstanding book! I am a huge fan of the show and this book brought back so many great memories of watching the show and made me feel more connected to it. This book is full of interesting behind the scenes stories. It makes me want to re watch the show (again), and I will have a deeper appreciation for the stories. Jim O'Heir is a class act.

Freida always delivers a plot twisting, rollar coaster ride of thriller and suspense. Her latest novel, The Tenant doesn't disappoint!
