Winging It

Winging It by Emma Murray

January 24, 2022 by Classic Leave a Comment

Honestly I am tired of hearing about Patrick. I just cannot anymore. And I am tired of Saoirse being so hypocritical about the people she cuts off, can’t forgive, when she has done some pretty crappy things too. This one dragged from beginning to end. There was way too many coincidences and I just forced myself to finish this one. With Saoirse and her husband David and their daughter moving to New York for a year, I thought we would get some fun Big Apple […]

The Juggle

The Juggle by Emma Murray

January 24, 2022 by Classic Leave a Comment

I liked this one better than book #1. Probably because Saoirse comes to realize that not everyone she meets is going to be a best friend forever like Bea. I liked the resolution to some things, but other things had me going what the heck. I did laugh a lot though while reading this one which is the main reason why I gave this one 4 stars. The mothers in Saoirse’s neighborhood sound like a lot. I am not a mother, but I never understood […]

Time Out

Time Out by Emma Murray

January 24, 2022 by Classic Leave a Comment

I ended up reading the series starring the main character, Saoirse, back to back to back. So far there are 3 books. I don’t know if I will read a fourth. Probably because she started getting on my nerves in book #3 and I was over her by then. The first book sets things up fairly nicely though. Saoirse is a married mom of one. Her daughter, Alice, is like Damien reborn. Her husband David practically gets hives though if their house is out of […]

The Library

The Library by Bella Osborne

January 24, 2022 by Classic Leave a Comment

Please note that I received this book via NetGalley. This did not affect my rating or review. This was so good. I loved the characters of Tom and Maggie. I really didn’t want to put this one down when I got to the end. When Tom goes to the village library, he wants to just go someplace where he can study and hide from his father. When he gets there though, he ends up lying about his past and is offered romance novels to read […]

New year, already behind in reviews… =|

Mrs. England by Stacey Halls

January 24, 2022 by postcardsandbooks 4 Comments

So it’s January and I’m already 6 reviews behind… but rather than drowning in despair, I’m deleting from my memory the 20+ books from 2021 I never reviewed and focusing on the 6 I’ve read so far this year. I have to start somewhere, right? So I’m starting with one of the books I got from the lovely LanierHgts in the Cannonball Book Exchange: Mrs. England by Stacey Halls. Thank you again!! 🙂 I have to say this was never a book I would have […]

A Heartwarming Story of Mutual Administrative Assistance

Network Effect: The Murderbot Diaries by Martha Wells

January 23, 2022 by ElCicco 6 Comments

Network Effect is the fifth entry in the Murderbot Diaries and unlike the previous four, which were each about 150 pages, this one goes for 300+. As usual, it’s packed with intrigue and cool fights. This might be my favorite Murderbot (so far) because it involves much of the crew from book 1 as well as Asshole Research Transport (ART) from book 2. The plot involves corporate planetary piracy and an old school malware attack, but it also focuses on Murderbot’s complicated and evolving relationships […]
