Never Doubt Rainbow Rowell…OR Scootsa1000!

February 15, 2017 by Melina 2 Comments

First, you should probably go read Scootsa1000’s review here…because her review made me want to read the book–and what if I don’t do as good of a job? Then you’ll be missing out on a great book recommended by Rainbow Rowel AND Scootsa1000!  I don’t want that on my conscience. Ok.  I’ll start here. I loved this book.  If that were enough, that’s all I would say.  But I’ll say a little more.  Have you ever read the Ice Storm where you know everything is […]

You Really Shouldn’t Share Mascara…That’s My Takeaway From All of This

February 10, 2017 by Melina Leave a Comment

  This book keeps popping up on book lists everywhere and then someone in our book club picked it, but then changed her mind to have us read Just Mercy  instead (this was last year which is why I don’t have a review for it).  But…I had already purchased the book and so I decided that eventually I would get to it. After reading The Kind Worth Killing I realized that I’ve been missing suspense and mystery in my life.  Soooo…I turned to The Woman […]

Caution – Difficult to Put Down

February 4, 2017 by janetfaust 4 Comments

This book is fairly new territory for me as a reader who primarily sticks to science fiction, fantasy, and the occasional non-fiction book. Fiction set in our world, in current times, simply hasn’t been on my radar. But Resurrection Express enticed me with its cover, featuring the skyline of my hometown, and from the first couple of pages I was hooked. How this thriller compares to others in the genre, I really cannot say. If you enjoy action, lots of plot turns, suspense, and don’t […]

Secrets to the Grave

February 4, 2017 by Classic Leave a Comment

I can honestly say that this book creeped me out a lot. With Hoag setting the first scene with a graphic description of the murder victim, and how our bodies break down after death, I may have been off food for several hours while I finished this book. It seems this days I am destined to read book series out of order. I read book #3 last year, and finally went and bought book #2. I will so just go buy book #1 just so […]

Best Not to Get on Her Bad Side

January 27, 2017 by Melina 1 Comment

So far the year of 2017 has been a dumpster fire for multiple reasons…many of those reasons you can guess, but also because I haven’t been able to find a book that I could lose myself in. It’s my turn for my book club selection and so I was feeling the pressure of trying to find something that ten women might like–no small feat.  I’m glad that when I made my search for “suspenseful books” on the Internet that when I read the blurb about […]

    on The Curse of Obedience
    I've re-read Ella Enchanted a few times and adore it. I've only seen the movie once, when I had much...

    I like this concept! Thanks for the review.

    on Y’all… a delightful break from the stress of life
    I'm not generally into shifter romances, but the title really is awesome.
  • Tracy
    on I don’t know if finding the perfect man is worth all of this
    That is definitely NOT what I am looking for in a romance.
