The Great Alone
by Kristen Hannah

Overall, good and interesting book. Different from Hannah's other historical fiction books. More depressing home violence from great, yet sad, depiction of PTSD in war veterans.

Kafka On The Shore
by Haruki Murakami
View in Library Catalog
book cover


This book was beautifully written, and very fascinating, but just too weird and disconnected. I have no idea what actually happened in it, and no explanation was given for a lot of the events that occurred. Also, way too much sex. There was not that much sexual interaction needed for the plot of the story.

The King Maker

This book was a fantastic mix of Romance, Native American Activism, and straight up ugly Capitalism. The main characters (Nix and Maxim) are fantastically well written and developed. The author really must have done a lot of research for this story, and she was very good at finding a topic that is very relatable to what is happening today without, completely mirroring real situations. I jumped right in to the sequel!

A short, fun book with the Paw Patrol about the Pups and a trip to the city in a hot air balloon. Phonics book that focuses on short i words (big, city, rip, will, etc)

Why Kill The Innocent By C.s. Harris

book cover


4 stars for a solid addition to this excellent historical mystery series. It is set in London, January, 1814. Alexi Sauvage has introduced Hero Devlin to a 8 months pregnant wife of a recently impressed cooper. Her husband was snatched of the street by a Royal Navy press gang. She is desperate need of food and coal. Hero and her friend Alexi assist her in the successful birth of her child. They are returning to Hero's carriage when they stumble upon the body of a woman. Hero recognizes her as Jane Ambrose, piano teacher to Princess Charlotte, the Regent's daughter. She sends word to her husband, Sebastian St Cyr, Viscount Devlin. Sauvage has told Hero that the body was moved after death, due to the lack of blood from the wound. Devlin decides to investigate what was either a murder or manslaughter. However, the Palace does not want this classed as a murder, because it would embarrass the Royal family. The authorities announce that she died as a result of a fall, hitting her head. Devlin angers some powerful people by investigating and is attacked. He does solve the murder. There are many suspects with twists and turns in the plot. I was not sure of who the killer was until near the end. I like that the author incorporates the use of terms in use in 1814 London: Footpad=robber cutpurse=thief Description of Hero's clothes: "Unable to use her carriage in the snow-filled streets and scorning sedan chairs, she pulled on demi-broquins of fine morocco lined with fur, wrapped herself in a fur trimmed pelisse with a matching Swedish hat fastened up on one side, and walked." The author discusses the plight of the poor, compared with the rich and the inequities of limited suffrage, and limitations placed upon talented women in Regency Britain. I recommend that you read this series in order, as there are developments in Devlin's personal life throughout the series.

Mobituaries is a great book for history buffs! Awesome stories about people that were famous, or should have been. Audio read by Mo Rocca makes it even more engaging.

This is such a cute one. If you love little kids and love stories, this is one for you. It's also a story of sisterly bonds. All of which the author fully pulls you into. I really loved this easy read!

book cover


The was a very good story and a great reader. Perfect combination. Can't wait to listen to #2 in the series. William Warwick is a DC in the Art & Antiques Squad in Scotland Yard. He is tracking a copy and a fake Rembrandt, with his art background he can tell the difference. Now he just has to find both and the owners AND help with a wrongful conviction in a murder case (his new girlfriend's father). The conclusion sets up the second book in the series. Can't wait to heart hat one too!
