Review:Yet another masterpiece that the general public (or should I say sheeple) just doesn't "get."
If you have a heart, or even a soul (I doubt it these days), how can you not be moved by this story??
It goes beyond a "coming of age" book..it is the archetypal search for one's SELF in this world.
Carson McCullers is a master at conveying the loneliness of that search, and the loneliness within all of us.
Her books move me to tears. Read more

Review:Typical Dave Robicheaux novel featuring Clete Purcell, Alafair and the pet raccoon and a cast of rich folks Dave and Clete don’t like. Oh yeah also a few bad cops and mobsters. So another great novel from J.L. Burke. As good as anything else out there. 5 Big Ass Stars! Read more
Review:I enjoyed reading this book especially the surprise ending. It took me a few chapters to get into the flow of the book but that is not unusual for me. I just found it to be rather slow at the beginning. Read more
Review:From the hardest goodbye to the sweetest hello, Harry and Molly get under the skin and make their way into your soul. Every Time We Fall in Love is at the mercy of time and the hands of fate. Andre spins a tale of love lost and hope revisited with characters that are as real as they are flawed. The first time around family got in the way. Ironic that the circumstances that broke them apart could be the catalyst that gives them a new beginning. I'm swept away every time I read a Bella Andre novel... Read more
Review:This book is an apocalyptic tale translated from Russian to English. I wish I could give 1/2 stars, since I would give this 4&1/2 instead of just 4. It's also a video game, which is why I decided read it before I actually played the game.
I couldn't give this a full 5 stars only for the reason that the translation was a little rough at times. I didn't think there was a huge amount of translation errors, but there was definitely enough to take notice and think that it really should hav... Read more
Review:Quite good regarding a family's struggle to recover after an unspeakable crime to a family member. All the characters were well developed except perhaps fourteen year old Justin, the victim, who remained an enigma for me. Read more
Review:Thoroughly enjoyed this book. I found it hard to put down. The pace and tension all within a few ays was amazing. I have read most of Mary Higgins Clark novels and always enjoy them . I would recommend this one also to friends. Read more
