Review:Hilarious! Quick and relateable read. Actually, I snagged the audio version - I do a lot of audio books with my commute and this is the first narrator that I feel does a really good job. Love this book and hope Laurie Gelman keeps writing. Read more

Review:This book will keep you on your toes and guessing til the end who is a good guy and who is the enemy! My first time reading anything by Julie Moffett and certainly NOT my last. A very good read that you will have a hard time putting down. I'm ready for book two (which I've already purchased!). Well done. Read more

Review:I wanted to like this book because the storyline sounded interesting, but the lead character goes over the same problems in her head over and over and over. She tries too hard to get her family together, but it sounds like most of them can't even stand each other, so why bother? I forced myself to finish this book, but in hindsight, I wish I had listened to the other reviewers and moved on to another book. Read more

Review:I enjoyed Stern Men very much! It was light, humorous, edgy. I loved how the family story evolved, and Ruth was a convincing teenager full of age-appropriate angst, disdain and insecurity. Having family on coastal Maine, I loved the lobster logic! The facts begining each chapter brought a serious mood that was lightened up by the community characters. This is a perfect vacation novel.
