Portrait Of A Spy
by Daniel Silva

book cover


This book ended differently than his other books. It was sadder and yet more inspiring. The female who became a spy was courageous and brave. I liked the book and would recommend it.

book cover


I enjoyed this book - I loved putting together the sights and scents in my head and feel I could smell them. I enjoyed how she incorporated Grace Kelly with a beautiful store of a local parfumerie. I will say I was surprised by some turn of events before the passing of Grace Kelly, but it was a nice story

This book was absolutely amazing. It didn’t even feel like I was reading anything, it felt like I was living it. When I got to the acknowledgements I almost had an anxiety attack because I suddenly got snapped back into reality. I was super sad when it ended. Definitely recommend

BSD is one of my favorite series and every volume I read builds so much for the plot, characters, and relationships. The new settings brought to ex-guild and ex-port mafia members was one of the highlights.

One of my favorite Ali Hazelwood books. I enjoyed the building of the romance. It was also nice to have a peek at the life of past book characters as well.

I was disappointed that this was not a novel but 6 short stories based in New York and a novella based in Hollywood in 1936. The novella made up for the other stories.

Israel, My Beloved
by Caleb Carr

book cover


A wonderful book for animal lovers, especially rescued cats. A little slow at times, it does work as a memoir. And architecture lovers will enjoy reading about the unique house Caleb built. And nature lovers will appreciate the vivid descriptions of the Taconic mountain. It's a light summer read, great for small moments. But be ready to cry at the end.

I liked this book. It was really funny. I would recommend this book to other kids. I can’t wait to read more books

Maybe In Another Life
by Taylor Jenkins Reid
View in Library Catalog
book cover


'Maybe in Another Life' was a compelling read but then held some aspects I disliked. I did fall in love with the characters, such as the main one, Hannah. I was glad to see how far she'd come in both lives. Her life story makes me feel a bit better. She changed from indecisive to quite decisive. Hannah transformed as a person and chose to follow a healing path. I was fond of how she learned to accept many things that came in her way. What I didn't like was how many times cinnamon rolls and high buns were mentioned. I also got bored of how tedious the story got. Oftentimes, it repeated what happened in that life to the other life. TJK incorporated lots of wisdom within Hannah, which I found nice. Overall, I'm satisfied the story ended happily, but it just wasn't one of my best reads.
