Save What's Left
by Elizabeth Castellano
View in Library Catalog
book cover


A friend recommended this book saying it was very funny. I did smile a few times, but I didn’t find it very funny. A woman moves from Kansas into a small oyster shack on the east coast. She becomes very involved with the town government primarily by writing email complaints to the town manager.

Jane Eyre
by Charlotte Brontë

book cover


Once I entered the world of Jane Eyre, I was hooked. I can see why there is longstanding appeal of this romantic novel by Charlotte Bronte. The story of an orphan who survived adversity and emerged heroically never gets old. The somewhat antiquated style of writing was charming and easy to follow. The addition of lines of French monologue in spots only added to the allure of this book. There were copious notes in the back of the book that explained expressions used or elements of history with which the reader may not have been familiar. Though its length of 500+ pages may have seemed daunting, the pages flew by, enveloped by the love story of Jane and Mr. Rochester. Highly recommend.

A powerful story that truly opens one’s eyes to the different forms of abuse and mistreatment faced by some (and how these can go unaknowledged both by the victim and those watching).

This was such a cute read! I couldn’t put it down and finished it in a day. Perfect for a summer day!

My Italian Bulldozer

A charming premise that delivers a quietly satisfying read. The characterizations are tender, and the heart of the book, rather than plot.

I got to meet the author of the Penderwick series and I got to ask questions like do you speak Latin because there was Latin in the Penderwicks? She said it was fun the add different languages into it but she doesn’t speak Latin. It was so cool to meet my favorite author in the world everyone should read her books and she has a new book The Library of Unruly Treasures

Elements of Style

Struck me as too Sex and the City/ Real Housewives superficial treatment of superficiality. Didn’t care enough about any of the characters for any of the tragedies in the plot to hit as such. Was surprised to be this disappointed.
