An outstanding story with excellent writing; both readers and writers will enjoy Dark Places. I will read another Gillian Flynn book.

After reading this, I aspire to be like Lillian Boxfish in thirty years. This is a remarkable, well-written, unusual story about one day in the life of a quirky eighty-four-year-old (or maybe eight-five, if she were being honest) New Yorker.

I will read another of Ms. Jenoff's books, and she deserves your try as well - the book is worth it.

The book is an older one of Grisham's, published in 1999, but it has stood the test of time. If you haven't read it, I would suggest you step off the pulled from the headline style of books and pick up a tried and true with The Testament.

A slow burn to getting there, but a decent read.

I think we all need to be stretched, academically and socially.

This book is filled with vivid imagery, thought-provoking dialogue, and young love; it fills my cup in all aspects and has become one of my all-time favorites.

A wonderfully written and remarkable, touching story of love. The book leads us to look at love in a different light. It is fresh and unique, though not a page-turner, and is quite entertaining.

I would recommend this book - it is a very well-written and crafted novel, and for the right reader, one not quite as seemingly jaded as this one, it would be a delightful read.

I find that sequels, even ones that are not necessarily typical, such as this one, often fall flat compared to the first in the series. Cilka’s Journey would fall into that category but still deserves the highest marks.

What can I say? I am a fan of all things JoJo Moyes, and The Last Letter from Your Lover did not disappoint.

What a great book! It’s hard to go wrong when writing about a dog, from a dog’s perspective, about, well - a dog’s purpose. But this book was more than that, it was wonderfully written and beautifully crafted to teach lessons in a way the reader nods her head and thinks, “Yes, I get that.”

I have said it before, I am often disappointed after reading a book that has received incredible hype; especially if that hype was in regard to a movie made from a book. I again have this feeling.

Later, a Novel by Stephen King - I generally start my SK books with a disclaimer: I don't like horror books (they scare me - duh). Later, however, written for a more delicate reader, me, was a lot of fun.

The Boy in the Striped Pajamas, John Boyne - At the suggestion of my adult son, I picked up this book for research purposes. It’s been a minute since my kiddos and I read these (MG) types of books and I can say since finishing it, I’m still thinking about it; days later.

The Storyteller, Jodi Picoult - My first Jodi Picoult book - what an amazing, visual storyteller; no pun intended. The Storyteller is an in-depth account of surviving, overcoming hate, and learning when forgiveness is yours to give.
