A cute romance - nice beach read

I did not particularly like the book. Terry was weak and allowed herself to be taken advantage of. even Chris abused her I understand she allowed it in order to get her son back. she gave up Gabe because she was not able to raise him. I haven't read the earlier books so not sure how Chris and Terry came to know decker and Rina but thank god for them still I'm sorry the Terry was killed and Chris took the easy way out and committed suicide leaving Gabe without a father as if it wasn't bad enough he lost his mother

Penelope Stone, the main character in Alison Espach's THE WEDDING PEOPLE, is at the end of her rope ....After years of unsuccessfully trying to get pregnant, her husband has divorced her. Her job is going nowhere. She has no family. Her cat has died. What's a person to do? What follows is Phoebe coming to terms with life ...or not. As the book states, the novel is "In turns absurdly funny and and devastatingly tender..." I loved the cast of characters she runs into as she runs for, or from, her life - the bridezilla bride, hopeful groom, hotel staff, and a group of friends and relatives that make up the wedding guests where Phoebe ends up. A very enjoyable read!

I have to be in the right mood for literary fiction, but the audiobook narrator hit this one out of the park. He captured both the dry humor Kenney is known for as well as Bud's emotional growth so fantastically. The book flew by for me with no boring spots, which is a high compliment for literary fiction.

This was an enjoyable and funny mystery that kept me guessing. Dana, our heroine, is a 29 year old unemployed actress who gets a gig hosting a program for the Shopping Network. On her first day, another star host is found dead. Lots of false leads and romance with two men. A very entertaining novel!

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.

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

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...

This is not a book I would have picked myself.. My sister read it for a Book Club and insisted I read it. I am so glad I did! Suspense, twist and turns. A book you cannot put down. Finished in 1.5 days and want to know what happens next for Millie.

Sloan is a serial liar, mostly white lies, and she lies out of habit, mostly harmless on silly things, or to make herself look better, or be liked more. Sometimes her lies catch up with her and bring on serious consequences. One day her lies bring her into contact with an apparently lovely family. She eventually becomes their nanny. But, as it is lately with Nanny situations, all is not right with this family, or with any of the characters. The beginning was slow, almost too repetitive. Some of the situations were absurd, but ok, things happen in novels. A lot of this was outrageous, and the writing at times seems YA. At one point, I thought, how is this author going to write herself out of this quandary…. she did, and it made for an adequate, if improbable twist.
