Book Reviews

  • Untitled post 632

    This was an interesting one for me. It was different – which is great. I don’t feel there are many books like this – so first of all, congrats to the author for finding a place to be original.     The book itself felt real. The whole thing felt like it was something that could happen in…

  • SLAUGHTERHOUSE-FIVE BY KURT VONNEGUT JR.

    I’ll admit, when I finished this book it was a solid 3 stars for me. I didn’t understand what was ‘so great’ about this VERY famous book. After letting it marinate in my brain for awhile… I realized it WAS marinating. It was sticking with me. That alone, says something.      This was a very intriguing…

  • THE LAKE HOUSE BY KATE MORTON

    Kate Morton is easily one of my top favorite authors. She writes books that affect my heart in a melting sense, rather than a heart pounding thrill way. She’s the person I reach to when I want to melt into a chair. Looking back at my notes for this book, I wrote how I was having a…

  • THE GROWNUP BY GILLIAN FLYNN

    Reading this book was one of the more enjoyable hour of my life. It’s a short story so you can feel satisfied quickly. Whether you like or dislike the story, you know you didn’t waste too much of your life in the process. That is my way of saying, give this book a chance! (ha)    This has…

  • THE THURSDAY MURDER CLUB BY RICHARD OSMAN

    Let’s start this review off with getting the elephantout the room… I tried to like this book. Subconsciously I know I didn’t really like it.      I feel I am being nice with my 3.5, rounded up to 4, stars. It was way too confusing, the amount of mysteries and storylines didn’t’ come together in the…

  • THE HOTEL NANTUCKET BY ELIN HILDERBRAND

    I always think that I struggle with Hilderbrand book but she might be top 5 authors I have read and purchased books for… so take that little doubter in my mind.      This was a VERY interesting read. Interesting… what an interesting word. What does that even mean? Everything I liked about the book, I also disliked.  I liked…

  • THE HOUSEMAID’S SECRET BY FREIDA MCFADDEN

    This series has come out of no where for me and it has been SUPER surprising. I have absolutely adored reading this stumbledupon series.      The Housemaid is so easy to read and so fast paced and so twisty that you can’t put it down. Now … this is the second book in the series. So I…

  • CARRIE SOTO IS BACK BY TAYLOR JENKINS REID

    TJR is one of my favorite authors and Carrie Soto Is Back is a great example as to why. Why tennis? Who cares about sports? Who would ever read a book with play by play of a sporting event? Answer, no one… well, no one unless TJR is writing it. This is the magic of…

  • THE LAST PARTY BY CLARE MACKINTOSH

    I have mixed feelings about this one so deciding a rating was difficult. In the end, I went with my gut. This story starts out strong. A strong list of characters, two detectives that everyone will enjoy reading about and a twisting story right out of the gate.     I love reading about Wales – so already Mackintosh…
