Paris in Love: A Memoir
by Eloisa James
I love Paris (3/3/2012)
I love Paris in Love. It is so beautifully written. The technique of using vignettes gathered from facebook and Twitter works brilliantly. I thought I'd have to read it again just to glean names of museums, bistros, and shopping experiences, but surprise! They are listed inmore
The Sisters: A Novel
by Nancy Jensen
The Sisters by Nancy Jensen (9/4/2011)
As I read this book superlatives kept coming to me. It is stunning, superb, astounding. The title could have easily been Secrets. So many family secrets. We see the story in chronological order by different women, all related to the sisters, as well as the sistersmore
Sister: A Novel
by Rosamund Lupton
Sister (5/17/2011)
If you have ever suffered the sudden, unexpected death of a young loved one, this book will have you reliving the horror of those days. It is nonetheless, a compelling read, a book you cannot put down. You will be asking yourself who and why again and again. I'm not suremore
Outside Wonderland: A Novel
by Lorna Jane Cook
outside wonderland (2/1/2011)
Even though I cared about the characters and what happened to them, the book seemed just a step above a romance novel or soap opera. The writing was competent, but not exciting. I will not recommend it to demanding readers.
Raising Wrecker: A Novel
by Summer Wood
Wrecker (11/12/2010)
"Wrecker" is an eloquent, loving, human book. It grabs you on the first page and never lets you go. The characters are utterly perfect. As an older reader, I often forget the names of people in books. Not this one. Wrecker is a book that will stay with you for a long time.
