Glory is quite a character and is determined to find out who murdered her friend. It was a fun read.

There was a lot I liked in this book but some of the potty humor and elder abuse that was glossed over really upset me. The ending definitely made it worth reading though

An amazing short story by a great author. Ravi unexpectedly looses his father. His mother falls apart which forces Ravi to enter adulthood all too soon. Ravi with the help of a neighbor and a friend begins to realize that grief is missing a person in many different ways. He develops an understanding of himself and the others around him. A very emotional read which gave me goosebumps. Wish it were longer.

This was a wonderful sequel to the book The Book Woman of Troublesome Creek. Honey Lovett is the daughter of the blue-skinned Troublesome Creek packhorse librarian. Honey's mother and father are imprisoned, and Honey decides to continue her mother's book route. As an avid reader, I especially understood how much these people yearned for the opportunity to enjoy 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.

I'm catching up on the Rina Lazarus/Peter Decker series. I fell behind. I love this series by Kellerman.

I really liked this one. Sloane is a self proclaimed liar. She doesn't lie to intentionally hurt people, but more to make herself seem more important and interesting. Unfortunately, she does manage to get herself into trouble.

Unlikable characters, a ridiculous amount of Taylor Swift mentions, absolutely no plausibility and the most outrageous sense of ‘justice’- this book was not for me

Songs of Summer
by Jane L. Rosen

book cover


Songs of Summer by Jane L Rosen is another enjoyable "Summer Reads" (If you haven't read it, SPOILER ALERT STOP READING HERE. The central plot takes place of Fire Island. The story while a little predictable still kept me interested. I was impressed by the characters back story. I would have preferred a few more surprises. I liked the ending BUT, it was for me, cookie cutter - It is as if Ms. Rosen didn't try hard enough to be creative which is why a 4 and not a 5.
