The Island House takes place on Nantucket with many twists and turns. The story revolves around a typical Summer family, the Vickeries, with ties to Boston but enjoy living on the Island.

Susanna Vickery affectionately refers to the friends as her ‘Summer children.’ Nancy Thayer paints Nantucket with positive images. It is a great Summer Beach read.

Origin

One of the best books I’ve read this year with an incredible ending. The plot twist was built up throughout the novel and when finally revealed, everything made sense. The moral of the story about the dangers of technology was artfully weaved into the plot that incorporated assassins and the literal secrets of how life originated and where it’s going. Winston is one of the best characters and he was essentially an AI chatbot, the puppeteer pulling the strings behind the scenes of all the humans.

The story is set on Nantucket Island in the summer time. Courtney, from Kansas City, has a crush on her college roommate's brother, James, and returns to Nantucket to see them for her last summer there. It's an exciting, page-turner. Enjoy!

I thoroughly enjoyed this thriller that I listened to . I enjoyed the story and the reader with the australian accent. Mabel is such a great character both in the past and at age 80. It was a surprise to me about Mabel’s best friend, Daphne. I would highly recommend this book

I liked this book and recommend it. What starts out as a wealthy man’s search for his wife who has disappeared after a vacation with her close college friends end up in typical Daniel Silva intrigue If you want to find out what happens then you need to read this book. I don’t want to give anything away that will spoil the book for others

Entertaining read. Nice twists. Waiting for book 2 to be freed up.

The Gatsby Gambit

book cover


I really enjoyed this book. I liked the Great Gatsby when I read it in school, but this was a much more compelling story and made the characters more engaging. These were always great characters and it was nice to see them in a different type of story. I think the great writing shows how great these characters are that they can be in additional situations. A really great read.

What Lies In The Woods

book cover


Solid book. It is what I usually read and all managed to not be boring. A few twists were obvious. And there were a few too many towards the end. I think it would've liked less recurring violence and the final climax made little sense to the flow of the book. They're were really no characters to root for. Everyone was pretty terrible. Friends carry a secret after the queen bee tries to kill the narrator.
