Saw this book on tape at The Friends of the Library sale and got it because I recognized the title since it had been on the bestsellers list for a long time a few years ago. I knew nothing else about it. Big mistake! I got about one-third of the way through and had to put it down for awhile because there were three very graphic sexual assaults (one very sadistic) described and I was so distressed I didn't think I could read any more. I finally did go back to it and, thankfully, there were no other scenes like that. Of the several mysteries to unravel in this novel I figured two out also in the first third of the book. And though it was satisfying to hear the final mysteries solved, I still would not recommend this book.

I loved the book, excellent information on my new eating lifestyle!
Shutter Island

Excellent psychological thriller! I can't summarize the book for you because so much of what happens isn't real....or is it? Even at the very end the reader is not sure. I listened to this book on tape, and if I was rating the tape I would give it only 4 stars because the way reader speaks the Negro parts was offensive to me. But overlooking that the story is terrific. So READ, don't listen to, this book!
The New Iberia Blues A Dave Robicheaux Novel

Another thriller by JL Burke! The identity of the killer was a mystery until the end. I love his gritty style of writing and the beautiful, magical descriptions of the Bayou country. It's been fun reading about Dave's daughter as she has grown up through the years of novels.
Goodbye Vitamin

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!
Long Way Down

A beautifully written story about a tragic event. After witnessing the fatal shooting of his older brother, Will feels he must follow the rules of his neighborhood and seek revenge. Will enters the elevator with a loaded gun to leave his building and kill the man that killed his brother. As the elevator stops at each floor, a deceased member of Will's family or neighborhood enters the elevator to tell their story. A must-read.
Maid
by Stephanie Land

Anyone who fails to understand how so many people struggle to get by should read Maid, written by Stephanie Land. Reminiscent of Barbara Ehrenreich's book Nickle and Dimed, Land proves career success isn't necessarily a result of how hard you work. Sometimes, opportunities are sparse and life (especially unsupportive life partners) get in the way of happiness and success. As a single mother struggling to finish college, Land winds up working various cleaning and housekeeping jobs. How she manages to survive is amazing, as the odds are against her and the wages she's given don't reflect her hard work. This book is a good wake-up call for anyone who doesn't appreciate how exhausting and unrewarding it can be to work in these types of service jobs.

I am stingy with giving 5 stars. This book was amazing and I enjoyed it very much. My imagination soared while reading this. I highly recommend
