This book was a true mystery. It ended on a much different tone than it began and I grew to love the characters. Unlike some murder mystery series. This book was not formulaic. I am looking forward to reading the next book in the series. It takes place in 1990 Ireland and it was of interest to notice differences in the US at that time and Ireland. I am a HUGE British who done it fan and this was great.

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.

I loved the Slice series so much, this was such a nice end to those delightfully cheesy books. A sweet, quick read with main characters that absolutely stole my heart.

Hollywood drama, best describes this book. Tate is the daughter of a famous actor that she is estranged from. She meets Sam in London, their budding romance feels like it could be the plot of a movie. Later in the book we follow parts of making a movie. Paparazzi are swirling in this book and with drama between characters, this book could be a Hollywood movie. I am thankful for review I read here that prompted me to read the book.

As with many of Danielle Steel's books they are quick reads and you often forget the characters and story line soon after you have finished the book. However "Silent Night" is a story about a horrific accident in which a young girl is gravely injured and has to come to grips with the fact that her mother has died in the same accident .It's a poignant story of her fight to recover both physically and emotionally .Her Aunt showers her with love and devotion and never lets her give up, The odds of a full recovery often seem impossible .You will find yourself routing for this girl.

This is a very gruesome but captivating murder mystery written by JK Rowling under a pseudonym. I would recommend this book highly. Apparently, it is the second in a series about the main character detective, Cormoran Strike, that perhaps people might want to read first.

Something a little different from Martin Cruz Smith. Rather than a spy story, it's a love story set against the backdrop of Mussolini's Italy in the closing days of WWII. Sweet. I couldn't put it down.

This is a very fast paced and funny book about a single mom, struggling financially, who needs to finish writing her murder mystery novel before her life crashes down around her. Then her novel becomes her real life, and vice-versa. An uplifting book where the underdog wins! I recommend this book.

Very disgusting and disturbing stories about the creation and use of napalm in WWII. Historically informative. Gladwell's style is a bit repetitive, but thankfully, also evaluative of the morality used in war.

This was a cute, quick, and fun read. I liked the idea behind the novel, but I did feel the characters were not as well developed as they are in her other books (The Great Pursuit Series, Sweet Series, and See Me). Overall enjoyable, but not Wendy Higgins's finest work.
