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)

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.
