Original Sin: A Sally Sin Adventure
by Beth Mcmullen

Original Sin (2/8/2011)

I loved this book! Such a great combination of mystery/thriller/chicklit.....and I enjoy all three of these genres so what a treat to have all 3 in one book! I read this book over a weekend..not because it is a short easy read but because I couldn't put it down! I look …more

Minding Ben: A Novel

Minding Ben (2/8/2011)

Gone Tomorrow: A Jack Reacher Novel #13
by Lee Child

Gone Tomorrow (10/16/2010)

This is only the second Jack Reacher book I've read..it was decent. Good plotline and kept my interest until the very end. It was a quick and easy read and I'd recommend it to fans of espionage style thrillers.

The Secret of Everything (12/13/2009)

I found this book to be an easy read. It kept my attention but wasn't as much of a page turner as I had hoped. The main character, Tessa Harlow, has nearly recovered physically from a hiking accident but is still struggling to recover mentally. As she pushes herself to face …more

South of Broad
by Pat Conroy

South of Broad (9/23/2009)

Pat Conroy is one of my favorite authors and he did not let me down with his latest novel, South of Broad. It is a wonderfully written account of a white middle class teenage boy growing up in the south during the tumultuous 60s. He is the anchor of a racially, socially and …more
