Enjoyable, light read. Made me want to go back to France :)

Dream on
by Angie Hockman

book cover


This was a very interesting take on amnesia after a car accident. I liked that the author really built up the events on how all of the memories were possible. The chemistry between the characters was a little predicable, but it was an enjoyable read.

She's Come Undone
by Wally Lamb
View in Library Catalog
book cover


Delores Price has an unusual life with multiple ups and downs. She is an unloved fatty who hurts herself, a mental case who realizes (after many years) that she can love and be loved. This is not my favorite book of Lamb but is worth reading.

In The Shadow Of St. Anthony
by Andrew Hernon
View in Library Catalog
book cover


"In the Shadow of St. Anthony offers a gripping, horror-infused mystery deeply rooted in the unique character of its neighborhood and the mood of 1980s SoHo. If you're drawn to eerie, atmospheric thrillers rich in cultural texture and can also appreciate a narrator with imperfections and a slightly uneven pace then this debut will likely leave a lasting impression."

If you saw two dirty, ragtag children who growled and snarled, would you believe they were raised by wolves?

Death By Chocolate Raspberry Scone
by Sarah Graves

book cover


Sarah's writing voice comes out in her character's personalities. This was my first book, and based on their actions, I was able to determine a lot about them. So many things going on - main focus being to solve a murder with her best friend EIllie.

The Dream Hotel
by Laila Lalami
View in Library Catalog
book cover


If you ever watched the movie, Minority Report, this book has a similar take on the surveillance state. However, Lalami's presentation feels more real and prescient and less futuristic. With the rise of AI intelligence and integrated computer systems, one can easily imagine the fate of our protagonist, as she is swept up and placed in a detention center based on an algorithm's output. The book is gripping and tense at times, but also does a good job of showing us how technology can worm its way into our lives in ways we may not have imagined.

The Skull
by Jon Klassen

book cover


This book is recommended for grade 1 - 4, ages 6-9. It is formatted as a chapter book. I thought it was dark for a children's book. I've read this author before and he often has an unusual twist in his stories. I felt like a 6 year would be a little scared after reading this book. I would recommend for older kids.
