Dune Road

Dune Road by Jane Green. Not as good as the other Jane Green book I just read. Another "relationship" book - only not as compelling.

The Beach House by Jane Green. I loved the people in this book. It had some twists and turns that were good. A "relationship" book - all about how people get along and relate to each other.

Nightwalker

Nightwalker by Heather Graham. OK book about people who see dead people and try to help them. I thought it would be better than it was. I would get frustrated about how dumb the woman character would act - duh, someone is trying to kill you - don't wander off by yourself!

Moloka'i
4 cookies
Moloka'i by Alan Brennert. A fascinating look into life in 1890's Hawaii, and the leper colony there. This is fictional, but based on real events and people. I never knew anything about the leper colony, and what life was like for those people. Very interesting!

To Green Angel Tower

To Green Angel Tower by Tad Williams. This has to be one of the longest (If not THE longest) books I have ever read. It is stinking huge! It took forever to get through it, but I really liked it. It is the last in the Memory, Sorrow and Thorn series. Really good fantasy series!

Tallgrass
5 cookies
Tallgrass by Sandra Dallas. I need to look up more books by Sandra Dallas, both of the books I have read of hers I loved. (The Persian Pickle Club was the other.) This book is about a town located by a Japanese relocation camp, and the affects it has on a young girl and her family. This the second book about the Relocation Camps in the last few weeks, and I find myself fascinated. Great book!

A Reliable Wife

A Reliable Wife by Robert Goolrick. I really liked the idea of this book, the mystery of it, and I liked the way he writes, but there was a lot of graphic scenes, and it ended up being disturbing instead of intriguing.

Fade by Lisa McMann - the sequel to Wake. I liked this better than the first book. There is one more in the series, I am interested to see how she ends this story.

Shelter Me

Shelter Me by Juliette Fay. Loved this book! It is about a new widow, and how she goes about picking up the pieces of her life and moves forward. It sounds really depressing, but it was very endearing and I just loved it.

Hens Dancing by Raffaella Barker. It was hard for me to get into this book, written from a journal perspective of a newly divorced woman who is raising her three kids in the English countryside. But I ended up really liking it. It made me laugh.
