Shutter Island
Dennis Lehane
Harper, 2009
Toes curled, bedtime delayed!
Since previews for this movie are tantalizing and intriguing, I wanted to read this book. I wasn't sure what to expect, but OH MY GOSH! Shutter Island took me on a trip I haven't been on in quite a while. The protagonist, Teddy, is gritty but likeable; Chuck is a ...

Fantasy in Death
J.D. Robb
Putnam Adult, 2010
The beginning of the end...
This, my fellow Eve and Rourke fans, is the the beginning of the end. Not in a horrible, "OMG, this series has totally gone downhill" but in the slow, beautiful way stories about couples come to a resolution. As Roberts says in the video on this page, people grow and ...

The Lost Symbol
Dan Brown
Doubleday Books, 2009
The Lost Symbol lost me
This highly anticipated book was a slow and gradual let down. I was caught up in the excitment and drama all the way until the last few chapeters. The characters had me interested enough in the plot and having been to DC, it was fun to think about all the landmarks and ...

The Girl Who Kicked the Hornet's Nest

Hornet's Nest and Trilogy
Have been reading since age 4 (am now 68) and mostly fiction for the past 50 years. A novel a week. This trilogy is, in my opinion, the finest series I have ever read and Hornet's Nest may be the very best piece of fiction I have ever read. I found myself purposely ...

Sookie Short Stories - Great Read
