book cover


Days before his college graduation, Alice calls Harry (step son) with shocking news. His father is dead and the police think it’s suicide. Devastated, Harry returns to his father’s home in Maine. There, he and Alice will help each other pick up of the pieces of their lives and uncover what happened to his father, however, the author provides so many twists and turns. Maybe you can predict some of them, maybe not........truly enjoyed the book and did something I don't often do: seek out the same author for multiple reads.

Circe

book cover


I loved this book! The story touches on or at least mentions many of the gods and other recognizable figures from Greek mythology and really helped me understand how they connected. The story begins with Circe’s birth and life in the city with her family but then spends much time and attention on the island of Aeaea where she comes to terms with some old demons and charts the course for her future. If you like mythology, you will love this story.

In the Time of Five Pumpkins
by Alexander McCall Smith

book cover


This is a most enjoyable book as are all of Smith’s Botswana takes. This book has a couple of interesting story lines, including 2 where things are quite different from what they seem to be initially and one that puts Mr. J.L.B. Matekoni’s life in jeopardy. There is also a very touching couple of scenes from the Orphan Farm.

This is a new author for me and I loved this book. The central character is a part-time college librarian who has a cat that goes everywhere with him. His college is hosting a librarian’s convention at which someone who is hated by everyone is murdered, making everyone at the convention a suspect. The central character has a knack for solving crimes and is instrumental in helping the police with this one. A good and interesting plot with good characters. I look forward to reading something else by this author.

It’s a favorite contemporary romance. Sarah and Isaac’s story is raw, messy, and filled with real emotion. The chemistry between these two is hot while also having such a beautiful emotional depth. I will be reading more novels by Jewel E.Ann
