This book will tear your heart out and stomp on it. The author captures the experience of motherhood perfectly. Relevant today because of its depiction of historical events and its representation of the way people treat outsiders.

I wouldn’t recommend reading this one. I only liked the detectives character in this but I didn’t enjoy reading from all the different points of view.

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.

Entertaining love story that's more than just fluff. A great beach read, but also a look at former child stars, perception vs reality, and real love vs Insta-love.

i love this book its really informative and dives into the history and world of quidditch. and it helps me understand the world of harry potter that little bit more

I was so excited to hear Ali released a fantasy-based romance, and it absolutely lived up to my expectations.

Inaccurately marketed as a crime thriller, this slow burn of a political novel is unlike anything I’ve read. The protagonist is a detective, but positioned in a PR management liaison role between the police and journalists. I cared enough about him as a character to stick with the drier parts of the office politics to get to the cold case that resumes in a unique and gratifying way. Overall the novel hangs together narratively, has interesting characters, broaches topics I hadn’t seen addressed in fiction before, or so well, and gives the reader enough of a plot payoff to read through the complex, intellectual matter that takes up much of its 576 pages. But if you pick it up looking for a page-turning mystery, you’ll be disappointed.

I read Bill’s book about the Appalachian Trail and found it hilarious, so I decided to read this book. It wasn’t as funny as A Walk in the Woods, but it was amusing. It was really about the history and geography of Australia. Very interesting.

I don’t usually like many books that are based off of movies but I had to give this one a try because it was based off of one of my all time favorite 80s movies The Breakfast Club and it lived up to the hype. It kept me reading for hours with all of the plot twists and diverse characters. All of the characters are written in depth and it leaves you wanting to know more. I will definitely be checking out the next book in the series!

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.
