The Little Italian Hotel: A Novel
by Phaedra Patrick
Many unexpected twists from start to finish (4/28/2023)
I thoroughly enjoyed reading this book about the lives of different people and how they all came together to help each other in ways they never expected. I don't think any of them expected or planned to find their new way of looking at their lives when they requested the almost free trip to Italy.

A great read and almost a self-help fiction to help you decide to explore different ideas to create a different outcome to future visions for yourself..
Housebreaking
by Colleen Hubbard
Be ready for sleepless nights .... (11/29/2021)
Housebreaking! I had no idea when I started this book that it would be about such strong and courageous women. Women who were bored at various stages of life and who unknowingly helped each other through their actions. What a wonderful book that will amaze you by bringing out many of your emotions as you cheer these women on. As I read page after page, I was left wondering if I could ever undertake a complete housebreaking literally with a project deadline like this.

Colleen Hubbard captured me from the beginning. The book is filled with hurdles that families lived through in small and large towns. It highlights many social issues while making the hurdles very believable. It was entertaining and definitely a book I can highly recommend.
