Gone Tomorrow
Gone Tomorrow: A Jack Reacher Novel #13
by Lee Child
Love Lee Child (10/20/2010)
"Gone Tomorrow" is the 1st book I have read by Lee Child. I loved it and Jack Reacher. Fast fasted and well written. Highly recommend this book. Now have to go back and read all the rest of Lee Child's books.
The Doctor and the Diva
The Doctor and the Diva: A Novel
by Adrienne McDonnell
A Rich and Full Story (5/27/2010)
The Doctor and The Diva is a well written and fully developed story with great details. It is a book that once you start reading it, you can't put it down. It is full of twists and turns and had me from the first page. It is a must read. You will fall in love with the characters and will be sad to finish the story.
Ten Minutes from Home
Ten Minutes from Home: A Memoir
by Beth Greenfield
Painful but so worth it! (4/25/2010)
Anyone who has lost a loved one will relate to this book. It gives so much important information into the mind of a child dealing with the grief of losing a loved one. Read it and be so much better for it. I couldn't put it down.
Serena
Serena: A Novel
by Ron Rash
Not for the Faint of Heart (9/22/2009)
This is a interesting story but can be violent at times. It describes murders and hunting of animals. That aside, the story is quite engrossing and will keep you wondering what will happen next.
The Last Bridge
The Last Bridge
by Teri Coyne
It had me from the first page!! (6/1/2009)
The Last Bridge was a truly moving and well written novel. It will grab you from the first page and hold you until the end. I am really pretty hard to please but I would recommend this novel to everyone. The only problem is - it leaves you wanting more. You become invested in Cat and the others.
