Raves and reviews from one book lover's reads. Tuesday, May 15, 2012. The Pursuit of Happiness. Guest post by Debbie LaChusa. I’ve learned the.

http://kates-reads.blogspot.com/2012/12/a-tragedy-made-known.html
Raves and reviews from one book lover's reads. Sunday, December 16, 2012. A Tragedy Made Known. I was blown away by Chris Bohjalian's "The Sandcastle Girls". Prior to reading this novel I'd never heard of the Armenian genocide that took place in 1915-1916 under the Ottoman Empire. The story is woven between 1915 Aleppo, Syria and 2012 Bronxville, New York. This is a must read for anyone that is interested in history and this time period in particular. It is a masterful and heartbreaking story. A Kindle a...

Raves and reviews from one book lover's reads. Friday, April 13, 2012. A Complicated Love Triangle. Jeffrey Eugenides' "The Marriage Plot" was my pick for this month's book club. I'd read Middlesex a few years back and loved it, so I was really looking forward to this novel. I was a little bit disappointed, although I really enjoyed the book. It just wasn't on the same level as Middlesex. Subscribe to: Posts (Atom). Shop Amazon - Choose from 50 Books for Just $5 Each. A Complicated Love Triangle. Simple ...

Raves and reviews from one book lover's reads. Friday, March 30, 2012. I just finished "Committed" by John W. Mefford and I have to say it was a treat. The story is fast paced and keeps you guessing. Just when you think you know where it is going a new layer of mystery is added to the plot. This is a great first novel. The characters are well-developed and believable. The numerous twists in the plot are all woven together and none are left hanging. I'll be looking forward to book 2! The story is set in 3...
