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.

This book drew me into two lives: an aspiring high school journalist and an elderly woman who rarely talked. It takes place in upstate New York with a cross country adventure as the years unfold. Adele sets out to complete a journalusm class assignment at the local Nursing home. She meets Grace, a reluctant to talk resident with no known past. As their visits continue Adele unlocks Grave’s story. It was difficult to put the book down. I wanted to know what happened next.

Enjoyable autobiography.

This retelling of the Iliad from the point of view of a female Trojan captive has an interesting concept but I felt it went on way too long.

I didn’t care for this book, I think it made light of serious topics like depression and suicide

I enjoyed this book very much. It was a quick and easy read. The book followed the journey of a woman throughout her marriage and the troubles they faced. It also had different perspectives chapter to chapter with the 2 sides being her point of view and her husband's. I will be looking for additional books to read by this author as I felt it was well written.

Steven Petrow and I know each other since were were in 2nd grade. We lived in the same neighborhood and our fathers coincidentally went to college together. I have a signed copy of "Stupid Things..." but had not read it yet so I read it this month. The library also had it on display very recently. Steven is an LGBTQ+ author who also wrote "The Complete Guide to Gay and Lesbian Manners." I'm actually cited in the book. The book was different than I thought it would be. I expected it to be more comedic but it was more serious, or maybe I felt it was having known his parents. He writes about them a lot in the book. It's definitely worth the read.

This book was very disappointing to me. It was entirely too long and drawn out. The characters (especially the main one Olivia) was annoying and held no accountability to her own faults. The plot got more and more ridiculous and should have been solved easily if people just communicated. Lastly the agenda pushing was over the top, it made the book even harder to get through.

A reread for me that I was using for the July prompt. But what a masterpiece of a series

My first impression as I started Murder Takes a Vacation by Laura Lippman was this is a farce and I am being fooled. It was light silly reading. While I was never quite sure of the ending, I found it contrived. I found the novel not intriguing. Since I didn't have anything else to read, I figured might as well read Murder Takes A Vacation to the end.
