Review:I rarely write reviews - but always read them. I should have listened to the other reviewers here that said this book sucked. I'm actually pissed I wasted time reading this crap but I'm one of those people that once I've committed to start reading something, i HAVE to finish it! A previous reviewer mentioned how two dimensional all of the characters are - so true. Not only that - they just weren't likable characters - not one! Especially the main character who seemed very trashy and the mal... Read more
Review:Just when I thought Laura’s books could not get any better they do. I was hooked on this book from the first chapter. She has a style of writing that sucks you in and makes you forget everything but the story at hand.
The storyline was fantastic and the characters had depth to them. There was suspense, action and lots of emotions. Absolutely loved Erik and Brynn. There was such a connection and the sparks between these two. A page turner for sure and I highly recommend this be on everyone’... Read more
Review:This was purchased to help a student who has trouble reading words in print. I allowed the student to use my Kindle and the student had a wonderful time reading this story and wants to read more of O. Henry's writings. Read more
Review:Anton is the abandoned son of a single, drug abusing black woman who becomes the adopted son of an influential, wealthy white couple. Clearly this is a story that weaves race and class, haves and have nots together. I found it to be a compelling if not terribly realistic story. I connected quite well with Anton and found him to be an interesting and likable character. I had a harder time connecting with Anton's adopted dad, David. I couldn't get a strong sense of who he really was. Anton's... Read more
Review:The writing in this book was not remarkable, but I liked it anyway. I found the broken dialect of Lakshmi annoying toread, but the story was so engaging that it carried me along. The cross cultural and ethical issues for the therapist, Maggie were thought provoking as well. Read more
Review:As my first Thrity Umrigar read, I was well aware of the number of novels she had already written, and I don't think this will be my last. In short, the writing was robust and touching, but often in such subtle ways that the story snuck up on me.
The story follows the story of four friends, three who live in India and one in America who is dying of a brain tumor. The three in India want to travel to America to see her before it is too late, but one of their friends has married and conve... Read more
Review:Although this book may have been the cat's meow in its day,
today it is one huge bored yawn. The characters were cardboard and
not a bit relatable. You do not identify with anything about
these privileged ladies , and you do not even care what happens to them.
So sorry I wasted both my money and my time. Read more
Review:My Thoughts - 5 out of 5 Unicorns - I loved it!!!
***I bought this on September 4th
The cover is absolutely beautiful! It is what made me one click this book!
This book is only about 100 pages, but packed with an awesome story that will entertain you! It is for adults only due to the steamy content.
Okay, confession time! This is the first book I’ve read of Zoe Chant’s, but here is the shocking part, I own 45 of her books that I’ve been buying since April of 2015. Rea... Read more
Review:Nectar in a Sieve, written in 1954, is surprisingly not the least bit dated. There are a number of core themes. Its primary resonance for me lay in the bond between this husband and wife, which ultimately left me feeling that despite their extraordinary trials, these people were at least as lucky as they were not. It is historically and more fundamentally a story set in a time when life in India was rapidly changing, modernizing. This couple's difficulties largely resulted from the introduction ... Read more
Review:Settling into reading "That Thing You Do" was like settling into a week long vacation at my family's favorite beach getaway. First you get together with familiar family and friends. Then you venture out meeting new people. Then boom, HE shows up, the guy you have a "history" with, and you just KNOW you have this one week with, but could there possibly be more than that??? Maria Geraci skillfully brings you along for a fun ride with characters that feel like old friends as soon as they appear... Read more
