I enjoyed this story about a german woman immigrant to the US. I was saddened and shocked to find how immigrants were treated in Ellis Island! I have family who came to Ellis island. The fact that this Eugenics program existed is very disturbing to me. I found that I learned a lot from this work of historical fiction. I enjoyed Lena and Ella’s story and that of the people who lived by Blue ridge in Va. It is shocking how they threw them off their land. I recommend this book. Irlt is very informative.

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.

I really enjoyed this novel. I was inspired to read it after hearing the author speak and read excerpts from her book at EMPL. It is a fast read about why Grace left her family years ago.

Not your typical Stephen King novel. However, it was interesting and strange.

This is a dual time line story -- the present and Poland during the Nazi takeover. I am a fan of Kelly Rimmer's books and liked this one, too.

A riveting historical novel/romance taking place during WWII in England and Ireland. It's the fifth in the Knocknashee series by one of my favorite authors. Grace and Richard have loved each other for four years, but it was never the right time to express their love.

Julia's life has been turned upside down by her husband's murder. She then inherits a villa in Italy from a woman who is unknown to her. Julia decides to make the trip to Italy to find out who and why this woman would leave her the villa. As strange things start happening, she begins to think that she's in danger and is there a connection to her husband's murder?

Another entertaining murder mystery romance from Ellen Meister. It continues the story of our heroine from Love Sold Separately. She is still hosting her show on the Shopping Channel. During a company party, the new CEO falls from the rooftop balcony. Dana thinks she may have done it but can't remember because she was drugged that night. Keeps you guessing till the end.

Very cliche and poorly written YA retelling of The Great Gatsby

This was a really interesting novel. I already know the story of Huck Finn, and I loved Big River, the musical that is based of it. I could not stop thinking about the musical while I enjoyed this story. It also reminded me of things I forgot when originally reading the Adventures of Huck Finn. I can see why it won the Pulitzer, and why I have been hearing about it becoming a film soon.
