Always enjoy reading Adriana Trigiani. This novel has it all. Great story telling with wonderful humor.

Very well researched and illustrated graphic novel about Jane Austen which is full of fun facts, lesser known facts, a unique viewpoint, and with some embellishments. I enjoyed this book because it was a different way of learning and reading about someone through comic book format.

This is a solid book. Some of the (main) reveals were instantly predictable, but the story was well done and interesting. I think it is dun and sad how the story takes place in the era(s) I grew up in. I am getting very old if I related to the timing in the flashback periods of thriller novels. The ending was a little hodgepodge and random. Plus there were still some things that were unexplained (and one unnecessary), but I am excited to read more from Finlay

I'm not saying this book is awful, it actually draws some interesting parallels between Vietnam and the Holocaust. It is with sadness I say that the gladness was sucked right out of me with the repetition and long draw out story

I really liked this one. Sloane is a self proclaimed liar. She doesn't lie to intentionally hurt people, but more to make herself seem more important and interesting. Unfortunately, she does manage to get herself into trouble.

Two women decide to investigate together the disappearance of their missing sisters. The sisters were taken in different incidents separated by only a few weeks. Both cases were reported as runaways. Nicole Monroe and Jenna Conner don’t believe that their sisters ran away, and are determined to investigate together to determine what really happened. A little bit of a different concept. I like my mysteries so it was a good read for me. This is one of those that some of the incidents seem a bit preposterous, but keep the plot going.

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

My new favorite book series. The TV series Tracker is based off of these novels and if you like the show, you will love the books. This one was very exciting with some thrills, twists and turns in the plot. Thre characters have a lot of depth to them and I highly recommend you start at the beginning of the series as their is a continuous undelying story that takes place throughout each of them.

For the July reading challenge and the Summer Reading program, I read the book, "Nine Perfect Strangers", finishing it on 7/28/25. This book was made into a TV mini-series. I watched the first season last year and it was very good. When the second season started and I saw the book would be perfect for the July challenge, I decided to read it. The book was definitely better than Season 2 of the show. Season 2 was very strange. So strange, in fact, that if there is a third season of Nine Perfect Strangers, I probably will not watch it.

This book was just what I needed for a summer read, light and breezy. Twin Olive announces to her very close family that she and her fiancé are going to elope in Hawaii so not to remind her sister, Amelia, of her failed marriage. The family plans to surprise the couple in Hawaii with a full blown wedding. Ami and her cousin Diego set off early to start the preparations. Ami is forced to plan the wedding with charismatic best man Brody and eventually they like each other. Was this whole elopement a ruse to get Ami out of her rut. Read and find out. I also recommend the audiobook, it is read with multiple actors and sound effects.
