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.

I love this book! Every time I pick it up, I don’t want to put it back down. The format is so engaging and leaves you on mini-cliffhangers throughout the whole thing.

These Summer Storms

I won't give anything away, but I couldn't put this book down. It's part family drama, part love story, part twisted inheritance game. All set during a single week on the private island residence of the Storm family, in Narragansett Bay, RI. This family has massive amounts of baggage, and secrets, and drama. Great vacation read.

I read this book as an adult, in preparation for giving it to our nephew at Christmastime. I wanted to make sure that the book would be well-suited to him, and also was eager to refresh and deepen my own basic chess skills. I found the writing to be clear and approachable. The sections and chapters of the book are thoughtfully structured and well organized. Illustrative examples and opportunities for practice and application of concepts and skills are interspersed throughout the book in a timely and helpful manner. The author provides a list of resources for further learning and practice as well. I highly recommend this book as a great starting point or refresher for children and adults who wish to play chess!

I thought that I would like this more than I did. I liked reading from the viewpoint of Lily more than Matthew. Although the plot of this story kind of reminded me of Crazy Rich Asians.

Daniel Silva’s book is as usual an interesting spy book. Gabriel Allon is an interesting character.

Diavola

Twisted and fun. Inspires wine drinking and painting . The ending was a little dull and I kind of wish the “rot” that took over the family was more detailed, for a horror novel I wanted a little more darkness
