An historical fiction based on a real person, a former friar in Germany during WWII who joins the resistance and along with his wife encourages the town people to to continue living their lives by supporting each other and especially the children. An uplifting story, beautifully descriptive and emotionally charged.

Another cute book in the series. Cute characters, narrated perfectly, light and fluffy. Great late night read.

It was a little slow at times, but I enjoyed the story. I wasn’t aware that a group of women delivered library books by horseback in Kentucky in the 1930s and 1940s. The story has a twist near the end which I enjoyed.

Reckless

This was not like the first book at all. It was mindless banter between the Kai and Pae and I didn’t find that it advanced the plot at all. The ending was predictable and I didn’t like reading Kits pointless chapters. I could have easily skipped reading this book.

Slow Dance

This was a very slow read. I wasn’t a huge fan of either Shiloh or Cary. I would have liked the back and forth timeline more if the past chapters didn’t keep jumping all around so much. I liked Shiloh’s kids more than I liked her.

The Rise And Fall Of D. O. D. O.
by Neal Stephenson

book cover


Highly imaginative romp through a multiverse that some characters seek to capitalize on financially, others militarily, and some for the restoration of magic eclipsed by technology. The story is told through various characters, riffing on different vernaculars in comic ways, including a surfeit of acronyms and inflated business speak, which deserve the comic treatment. The plot gets a bit long and byzantine, but the imagination propelling the story and the funny dialogue are charming. Terrific entertainment overall.

Good Material

This was rough to read. I was excited to read it but then I struggled. This character was so whiney it became annoying at times. He just went on and on and on. I feel it just went on for so long. I did a lot of skimming for a large portion of the book. I will say I enjoyed the ending, it was good, but my goodness it took a looooong time to get to that point - which it did not need to. One review said read the last 40 pages as it’s all you need to know, that’s true. I also had a friend reading (audio book) this at the same time (random) and she felt the same way! We enjoyed our misery together :) If you read it, enjoy and maybe you will have a different perspective.

Cleaver ending ! All the characters get what is coming to them . Wickedly delightful classic husband verse wife. I wish the power of the house was better explained however as the crossroads did not seem to be enough explanation

All The Way Gone

I think it was only an okay book, it wasn’t my favorite out of the whole series. I feel like the plot was slow and not much really happened compared to her other books.
