Glory is quite a character and is determined to find out who murdered her friend. It was a fun read.

I listened to the audible version read by Jeremy Sisto. Wow, It was unputdownable and very moving but also sad and disturbing.

In this memoir of a self diagnosed Psychopath, Gagne, sets out to prove that not Psychopaths are monsters and should be shunned by society

The author’s style is difficult to read. The storyline is interesting.

Elizabeth Hoyt, the very prolific author of more than 20 Recency Romance novels has written another one. Her latest, NO ORDINARY DUCHESS, is rich with characters, charm, and social settings that existed in the early part of the 1800's in Great Britain. To this is added the unique story for whatever novel. All of Hoyt's Recency Romance novels have a hero (handsome and brooding), a heroine(charming and headstrong) and , of course, a villain (ruthless and cruel). Frequently a kidnapping or blackmail is involved. So far, so good. However, this latest offering goes into great detail about the hero's problem. Rather than his problem being about money, the life of a second son, or a forced marriage - Julian Greycourt's problems are sexual. And, in a twist of roles, Lady Elspeth comes along to save him, rather than visa versa.... I'm all for gender bending stereotypes in literature (and life?) but a found this book to be more graphic than I like in Regency England.

Magda's best friend Sarah dies and Magda makes a bucket list road trip. She takes Sarah's ashes with her. There are a lot of flashbacks to past experiences and conversations, plus letters and cards that Sarah sent over the years.

I have enjoyed this author’s previous books so I decided to try this one. The musical parts are very interesting, but it goes off on a weird comic book adventure that ruined it for me.

Great summer read. Perfect getaway.

This book sat on my shelf for too long but Phoebe and the Wedding People will stay with me even longer. This quickly has become my favorite book of the year. It centers around Phoebe and how for one weekend she decides to splurge one last time on herself at a ritzy hotel in Rhode Island. She has hit rock bottom and to her, her life is over but then she meets the bride and the rest of the Wedding People. Pros: Espach did an excellent job of weaving an intricate story of tough subjects with humor. The characters were all likeable and relatable. I also thought that the book flowed nicely. There were also multiple moments in the novel where I laughed out loud. Cons: It was a little slow in the beginning but very quickly you become invested in the story.

A beautifully written historical novel by one of my favorite authors. Eliza Rivers, 88 years old, tells the story of her childhood growing up on Mayfield, her family's estate/farm to her grand-niece and granddaughter. She wants them both to understand how important it is to her to conserve the land and hopes they will join her in her fight. It is a very emotional story of family, young love, friendship, and betrayal.
