Too Old for This
by Samantha Downing
Too Old for This (4/13/2025)
The book demanded the reader to have an open mind. It appeared to have two themes - murder and old age trials. This reader couldn't justify the continuous murder of people the main character didn't like. I know we sometimes might think we might kill someone because ofmore
Making Friends Can Be Murder
by Kathleen West
Interesting Title - What Does It Mean ...(Making Friends Can Be Murder) (2/26/2025)
I wasn't sure about what this book was about. Was it about moving to a new location and finding it difficult to make friends? I found the answer. It was about making new friends and much, much more. The author drew this reader into the situations that were a bit surprisingmore
One Death at a Time
by Abbi Waxman
Great Book...keeps you guessing! (12/26/2024)
This book kept this reader riveted to reading the next page. Characters were believable, well-developed and likeable. One wanted both Mason and Julia to eventually become friends and allies. This was a "who-done-it" that kept the reader wondering about who was actuallymore
Harlem Rhapsody
by Victoria Christopher Murray
Harlem Rhapsody (9/6/2024)

The Waters: A Novel
by Bonnie Jo Campbell
The Waters (12/19/2023)
What a great book! The author's descriptions of The Waters location and nearby village "Whiteheart" were so good you could almost picture yourself there - visiting Rose Cottage and Boneset Table. The complex family dynamics were powerful yet it was apparent all threemore
The Continental Affair: A Novel
by Christine Mangan
Does Crime Pay Really (8/4/2023)
The author has created a book with interrelated chapters involving two main characters (Henri and Louise) with different chronological reverences - dates, personal issues and settings. It involves a monetary crime committed by Louise and Henri trying to get the moneymore
The Montevideo Brief: A Thomas Grey Novel
by J. H. Gelernter
Interesting But Not My Kind of Book (4/4/2023)
The Montevideo Brief would not be one I would recommend for my book club which consists of ladies interested in current issues. To be fair to the author, descriptions of various adventures of Thomas Grey were colorful and held this reader's attention. Readers who are intomore
