Hard to Kill
by James Patterson, Mike Lupica

book cover


I liked this one more than the first book in the series. I like Jane and Jimmy’s alternate chapters. The ending was open ended and I think there will be another book in this series which I am looking forward to reading.

Me Before You
by Jojo Moyes

book cover


This book was amazing and devastating at the same time. The author has a way of connecting you deeply to the characters and bringing out new layers of their personalities the more you read. I hadn’t realized how invested I had become in the characters and until the book took such a turn towards the end. Just when I thought that Will was taking a turn and going to change his mind, my heart broke along with Louisa’s when he decided to follow through with his original plan. I highly recommend this book to anyone who wants to fall deeply for characters but isn’t afraid to also shed a few tears.

This was a good book. My son and I really enjoyed it. We laughed and we thoroughly enjoyed reading it together.

The Plover

The story was cute. I needed about 50 pages to get used to the writing format. No quotation marks to mark conversations. I often confused if Declan or an unknown entity was narrating. I also had to get used to Declan's way of speaking/talking. I really loved that the birds became characters. I've only just read it and will probably have more profound things to say later, but for now it was enjoyable.

What a fantastic anthology of Black poetry that spans centuries! This book changed the way I thought and had a lot of wisdom, insight, and emotional moments. I quite enjoyed it!

Dream State
by Eric Puchner

book cover


A wedding, a group of college friends, a romance, a heartbreak, and choices that reverberate through generations. Also an ode to the state of Montana—and heartbreak for the impacts of a warming climate. (Not in a preachy way, but in a day-to-day impactful change kind of way: the lake when the characters were kids, vs. the lake now.) The pace was a little slow but I was engaged in the outcome of the characters.

In My Dreams I Hold a Knife

book cover


Twisty and entertaining thriller about an unsolved murder and a group of college friends at a very Duke-like university. Lots of twists and turns, suspenseful, and also a really interesting look at the complexities of friendship, especially within a group.

Head Full of Ghosts

Started strong and I like the plot. The ending fizzled for me. Good twist but no real resolution and I sorry of feel like the narrator would have been more traumatized…. Some odd plot holes

The After Wife

book cover


Cute rom com story. I liked how the author had a lot of humor in a pretty serious story. I thought it was going to have a predictable ending, and it sort of did, but with a twist.
