This author has a great "storytelling" voice. Her descriptions are rich but not overly loquacious. Her word choice is varied and precise. She develops her characters well and creates a compelling, moving plot.

Ah-ma-zing! Literally could not put it down. Another Kristen Hannah book that I finished in one day... Lol. Great story line, great characters. You can feel the pain, the love, the longing in the words. One of my favorites from her works.

This book was not as good as Uprooted was but it was still well written. It was written in multiple different view points, which I think added to the story but there were times when it was hard to tell which person was narrating the story. I've also found that while most of her plot lines are well developed, her romance plot lines are not. They feel out of place and like they just put that as an afterthought. It felt abrupt and unnecessary to the plot, and took away from the magic of the story. Overall though it was a good book, and it's good if you ignore the poorly written romance

This is the second book of a new series. It is a mystery series that occurs after WW2. The main characters are Gwen, a war widow recovering from her husband's death and Iris, a former spry for Britain. They are quirky, intelligent and learning to work together at their new venture, The Right Sort Marriage Bureau. This story features The King, Princess Elizabeth and a cast of characters read to blackmail, murder or double cross. Intelligent and enjoyable book!!

Very interesting read about the different points of view from the underground railroad.

I like this book because my name is Max.

4 stars for another well done mystery by Tricia Fields. This is book 5 in the Josie Gray series, which has received plaudits from Craig Johnson, who also writes a mystery series set in a remote part of the US. Book 1 in the Josie Gray series won the Tony Hillerman prize. In this book, Josie finds a young woman cowering on her doorstep. Then she finds a body nearby. She starts an investigation with her 3 person Police Department. She is the Chief of Police in Artemis, a fictional town in the West Texas border desert country. The investigation leads to a human trafficking ring and some shocking revelations. I recommend that you read this series in order, as there are developments in Josie's personal life that continue through the series. Both my wife and I enjoy this series. There is very little violence and few bad words, so it would be acceptable for cozy mystery fans. I liked the satisfying ending. I read this library book in 3 days.

My favorite part was when he woke up in the morning and the chicks were on his ear and foot.

Not my favorite book of hers at all. Very dry and kind of sad. The book didn’t seem to have much of a plot instead concentrating on a parking spot for the first half of the book. Uninteresting to me.

This book had potential for me but I didn’t like the turn it took. Felt scripted especially with the climax.
