The book drew me in and kept me reading. I started it yesterday morning & finished it in the afternoon, because I HAD to know what happened. It was not what I expected, and I really enjoyed all but a couple of things in it. Those are things I thought could have been added, but they weren't nec...
I really liked this book! I grabbed it off of the shelf in the library in a hurry because my six year old was ready to go. The story is about two sisters who discover their dying mother's diary. The diary tells the story of their mother's love life prior to her getting married. Without getting ex...

You’ve read this story before. Four friends from college that stayed friends in life and some major life changing events brings them even closer together. I can’t remember if it was a reunion that brought them together or they never really separated. Either way, it doesn’t really matter. This sto...
So far, I am disappointed. The setting is Washington, DC, and the author mentions a character's trips to the Maryland shore for lobster rolls. Unless my memory fails me, having been visiting the MD shore since I was a small child, and having been to NE and had their lobster rolls, this is a mista...

She's very good friends with Samantha.Now that she's on the outside with a family, Andie and Justin for children and divorced livi...
I tried really hard to finish. I made it to the halfway point and reluctantly gave up. Perhaps my dislike stemmed from the audio version I borrowed from the library. I have not read anything from this author in the past; however the narrator (Sandra Burr)is one of my favorites. Traditionally, I...

Her boy, Jeremy, now a sullen teenager, is wrongly accused of rape, and mother and son are thrown together ...
I though Garden of Lies was truly awesome. (as you can see from my rating ;D) The author does an amazing job of transforming you into each of the characters she writes, which is hard to do in a third person view-point tale. I love the setting, in New York City, before, during and after the Vietna...
Her head was down, her coppery hair obscuring most of her face. The corner on which they stood was just east of Battery Park City, where she lived. As far as Mandy was concerned, though, it might as well have been miles away.Looking around him, Eric was struck by a sense of having narrowly averte...
Abigail swooped down to snatch up the centerpiece. “I specifically told you no poinsettias!” Never mind that it was that time of year, Christmas just three weeks away, Abigail loathed poinsettias. At her mother’s funeral, the church had been awash in them. She thrust the flowers at the hapless pr...
Television and newspaper coverage of the sensational arrest slowed to a trickle, and a weary relief began to set in. Doors remained bolted at night (by now the habit was too ingrained), but joggers began to appear once more in the park and on remote roads after sunset. The occasional nighttime hi...
. .” Regina poured tea into the cups on the low glass table in front of her. They were in her office, on the furniture by the windows, where they always sat, post-exam, to discuss treatment options or go over test results. Usually, the news wasn’t good, but this time Camille and Edward perked up ...
