Book Reviews

  • A NEARLY NORMAL FAMILY BY: M.T. EDVARDSSON

    Does M.T. Edvardsson  have multiple personalities?  I really enjoyed this book! PROS: My favorite part of this book was the multiple view points. The book is broken into 3 parts. From the dad’s point of view, the daughter’s and then the mother. It literally felt like each character was writing their section of the book.

  • THE LAST COLLECTION: A NOVEL OF ELSA SCHIAPARELLI AND COCO CHANEL BY: JEANNE MACKIN

    You don’t have to like fashion to enjoy this book!  This book was so wonderful. I loved the characters, I love how it’s based on truth and I even more love that Jeanne Mackin was able to take people maybe only known for their fashion contributions and make them so much more than that.  As

  • A GOLDEN FURY BY: SAMANTHA COHOE

    An amazing story that earned every star from every review. I was impressed with the high rating on this book. We are critical reader over here and I have begun to really trust my fellow reviewers. So I was surprised this book was holding such a high rating still.  EVERY STAR IS DESERVED.  This was

  • THE JUDAS STRAIN BY: JAMES ROLLINS

    I must add – sometimes I’m unfair to Rollins as I enjoy his books so much I sometimes categorize them as ‘fun’ and not ‘work’ that I have to post a review for. OBVIOUSLY he’s the best ever… why do you need a review? Please excuse my tardiness of this review. Please excuse my lack

  • THE BORGIA CONFESSIONS BY: ALYSSA PALOMBO

    Surprisingly AMAZING! I was surprised how much I enjoyed this book! In the beginning my brain was telling itself it was bored, yet I couldn’t put it down. I didn’t know much about Borgia, I confess, (haha, see what I did there?) and 3/4 the way through I looked them up and ruined part of

  • THE FAMILY UPSTAIRS BY: LISA JEWELL

    A complicated twist and turn that if you commit to it – you won’t be disappointed. First off – I loved this book. I got weirdly obsessed and couldn’t stop reading. I would read a couple pages during a movie, eating, right before bed, right before work … I wouldn’t stop. I just needed to

  • RECURSION BY: BLAKE CROUCH

    This is going to be one of the worst reviews I’ve ever written..  Why is this the worst review ever? BECAUSE THIS BOOK LEFT ME SPEECHLESS. I have no criticisms. I can’t even explain to you how this book made me feel. I feel as if I need a book club meeting to fully discuss everything

  • BONE IN THE THROAT BY: ANTHONY BOURDAIN

    This surprised me in a good way! I’m so impressed with Bourdain and wish I would have discovered his work sooner! I’m sure we all know him from his cooking shows and being a chef, but what talent for story telling as well. If you love the mob, New York or eating – you’ll love

  • WHEN YOU SEE ME BY:LISA GARDNER

    Breaking the norm with these unlikely characters.. First and foremost, I loved the characters Gardner created for this story. Each person was so interesting, so different and had clear voices. The book switches from one view to another and I never felt an overlap. I really enjoyed these characters, especially Flora. Flora gave me ‘Girl

  • DEATH IN THE FAMILY (SHANA MERCHANT, #1) BY: TESSA WEGERT

    A modern Agatha Christie? This was a fun read. I plowed through it. The characters were fun. The story alone was a great ‘who dun it’ – a classic Christie novel. I really enjoyed the nod to Christie that Wegert snuck in the story as well. Wegert is trying to build a series, so throughout
