One of my favorite graphic novels. The artwork is wonderful and the story is just so sweet. Really strong message about accepting others and living as yourself. 10/10 would read 100 times again.

When it comes to her mother in law, Lucy can't win. After losing her own mother at too young of an age, Lucy is hopeful that her husband's mother, Diana, will help fill that void. Diana, however, is nothing like the maternal figure for which Lucy had hoped. And soon, Diana's dead and things unravel. The book focuses mainly on the relationship between Lucy and Diana, but also outlines Diana's own past and how it's impacted the woman she is today (well, at least until her untimely death). The only thing is, no matter how poor the relationship between Lucy and Diana, there are others who may hold responsibility in the death of the family matriarch. As with many thrillers, the ending isn't what you'd expect.

This is the second time I read this book, and I can't believe how many new things I learned about Sheryl's journey finding her self. I love to hike, so I related to the adventure of a mountain trail, I would like someday hike some of the PCT "Pacific Crest Trails" One of the most enjoyable parts of the book was how well its written and the honesty of the author, how she let us into her life and shared so much intimacy. I love her and I follow her on social media, what a great and unselfish human being.

Alison is a defense lawyer and is given her first murder case by a lawyer with whom she is having an affair. She is married to a psychologist and has a young daughter. Although this is a quick read, the plot is full of graphic sexual situations and should not be read by the feint of heart. There are many twists and plots but in the end everyone gets their comeuppance.

Cassie Raines, a Chicago PI, is getting involved in complicated cases and the ending was a surprise. This the third book in a series and Ms. Clark is getting more imaginative in her plots. The characters are well described, there a few "odd" ones, and Cassie is dealing with personal issues as well as solving the case. One of Cassie's favorite places is "Deeks" a really crappy diner she loves. I would love to eat there but I know it's not real. :)

A young woman tries to find herself after breaking up with her fiance and being called home to help with her aging father who is slipping into dementia. Quirky, funny and poignant, this very slim volume will make you laugh at the foibles of families and relationships. Highly recommended!

This was the story of Ernst Hemingway's first wife, Elizabeth. It was sort of a melancholy tale of how they met, fell in love and how that ended. This book gave the reader a glimpse into the writers life in the 1920s in Paris, and how he found inspiration for his novels.

If you're into Agatha Christie-type books, this is a good one to read. The story is set at a summer camp owned by the McAllister family. The McAllister siblings come home to Camp Macaw after their parents' untimely deaths in an accident. They're there to remember their parents at a memorial service, but more interestingly, learn the contents of their parents' will. The will comes with a catch that dredges up old memories and introduces the whodunit part of the book: who is responsible for what happened to Amanda? Amanda's not a McAllister sibling, but what happened to her one night two decades ago impacts the trajectory of the McAllister kids' lives. The end of the book ties up loose ends nicely, so you will eventually find out the truth.

This book was recommended by a friend. Labeled as a "classic" I wasn't sure what I was getting myself into. A 1907 series of letters from a young orphan to her benefactor it was quick, easy, enjoyable read.

Love this book - good and creepy!
