The Margaret Code

book cover


Sweet little mystery, very Miss Marple-like. I had it all along, but it was still a nice read. Loved the relationship between grandmother and grandson.

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.

5 stars are not enough for the latest novel by master story teller Stephen King. Holly is back, Barbara is back and Jerome is back but you don't need to know who the are, but if you are a King fan you do. Be prepared to NOT want to stop reading Never Flinch with plot twists and don't try to figure it out. Great way to start my Summer Reading

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.

Inheritance
by Dani Shapiro
View in Library Catalog
book cover


I really enjoyed the beginning of this biography, but it slowed significantly later on. Dani was raised in an orthodox Jewish family. As an adult, she takes a DNA test and discovers that her biological father was not Jewish. This completely alters her image of herself, and she proceeds to investigate how it is possible that her dad is not her biological father, and her parents, no longer alive, never told her. It turns out that she was conceived in the early time of artificial insemination, when little was known about it. She attempts to find family who can help her understand her history, and to find her biological father. Add a star or 2 if you or someone close to you has an unknown parent.

Unravel Me

book cover


This is the second book in the Shatter Me series and oh my god, it was so good. The writing style carries over from the first book, showing Juliette’s inner conflicts. Most of the setting up is done in the first book, so this book is relatively fast paced. The romance gets more complicated as you get a different view of Aaron Warner’s life. There are some plot twists that I was not expecting at all. I had to sit there and really process one of them. I really love this book and totally recommend it!
