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.

I thought this was a very interesting book. When this book came out, I was too young for it, but I know it was a world wide phenomenon, and I always wanted to read it, so I finally got around to it. Even knowing the spoilers from hearing about them, reading about them, etc. it was still attention grabbing. I enjoyed how it told you parts of history and connected ideas you never thought of before. Even though it was fiction, it made you think about the world around you.

In this short novel, set in two vacation spots (a rental house in Cape Cod and a rental house in the Catskills) we get a glimpse of how this DINK couple learn to navigate relationships with their in-laws, neighbors, co-workers, acquaintances, and each other. Weike Wang is a Boston University alumni!

WILD HORSES by Dick Francis follows a proven formula - interesting story, people with problems, and, or course, a really good man as the main character!

In a small town , Three Pines, Canada, an older woman, a spinster named Jane, is shot dead in the woods by a hunting arrow. She had just had her first piece of artwork accepted into the local art show. Art she hadn't shown to anyone before that moment. Is her death related? who would want her dead ?

A very well written book. As a recent emigrant out of India, I long to feel the Indian air around me. This book did just that! Took me back into those slim and slender streets, the overly dense colonies, and the ever warm civilizations. Furthermore to the trip back home, it also helped me explore some major European cities via its text explanations... The narrative is very gripping and engaging. Sonaz story and the way her feelings and thoughts have been expressed are not just true like but equally captivating. A lot of effort and research has been put into this book. Such great character building and lovely scene setting in the beginning and the novel reaches a NECT level when it turns from just fiction to mystery... Loved every bit of it...

A short (277 pages) novel, but packed with emotion! The protagonist, Michael Woodbine is very relatable. When he was 7 years old, he nearly died from a fireworks accident. We meet him at age 19, starting college, where he meets his film professor, Robert Denning, who will influence Michael's life in a profound way. Deals with the themes of self-acceptance, love, and parenting. This story will stay with me for a long time.

Laurel Applebaum gets a call from the hospital that her husband Doug was in an accident and imagines he had died. She is surprised to feel relief as she imagines a carefree life without him. Lots of twists and turns as Laurel learns to assert her own needs and resist her habit of being subservient to Doug. She had been maintaining the peace and losing her autonomy as a person.

THE QUICK RED FOX by John D. MacDonald is from a well know series starring Travis McGee. Travis McGee is a colorful resident of a Miami marina who lives on his houseboat, the Busted Flush, and works as a private detective when the spirit, and his finances, move him. Get the picture? In this so

This book is not for the faint of heart. It is gory and strange (very Twilight Zone) but if you can get through that you are left with a fascinating story about love, fear, parenting and all the impacts that it has on us as kids and adults. I don’t think I’ll ever forget this book- what a ride
