Moving from the past to the present Billy Harney tries to catch dirty cops, gets accused of being a dirty cop, loses his memory, stands trial, and regains his memory. He deals with a variety of relationships along the way. A beach read!

This book makes gives me a different view on how people made it through the depression and life during WWII. How this one man was able to make his way in the world with very little and went to college and was on the Olympic team. It is a very good book I enjoyed it.

Enjoyed the second story more than the first. Loved Ellen's character and her relationship with the boys. Kept me hooked that I wished it was longer. The first story was kind of predictable and slightly boring. The theme of adult illiteracy isn't a usual theme in books so kudos to Macomber for bringing it up.

Tom North tells his life story. He dispells the myth of the movie "Your, Mine, and Ours". He explains how he and his siblings finally found healing after growing up with abuse by Frank Beardsley. An excellent book.

I enjoyed reading this book. It was filled with many twists and turns. I didn't know who was telling the truth at the end, but I believe the author did that on purpose based on the title of book.

Excellent history of the U.S. Westward movement to Ohio detailing the joys and sorrows of the people who were pioneers of the west.

An in depth look at 3 generations of Vietnamese women. The grandmother and daughter were born in Vietnam and the granddaughter was born in the US. The book describes the difficulty of understanding each other. How each generation is different and how they clash. But their love for each other is very deep and they come to terms if not in life but in death.

This is one of those books where it starts off looking like it is about one thing, but it is really about something else, and even that isn’t completely clear. The author leads you along the path of discovery where many of the characters are not who they appear to be. Reading this is like discovering new stories along the way. And, as always, child’s central character, Jack Reacher, is enigmatic. I enjoyed this book very much.

This was such a good book! While the story was about a family of lawyers, the book is more about the family members and their dynamic. The family’s “good” son comes to the family’s less respected son to ask for help; he’s gotten himself into a serious situation and really needs his brother. But what plays out is more an act of betrayal and deception with the good son willing to risk everything for a price.

What a delightfully different book! A female writer for a late night skit comedy show, The Night Owls”, finds herself seriously attracted to a celebrity guest host. She’s been hurt before and can’t believe that this amazingly famous person would be seriously interested in her. But while she works that out, we get an exciting look into the world of comedy sketch writing, and that alone is worth reading the book for.
