Carmen's Book Adventure: What Alice Forgot by Liane Moriarty
http://carmensbookadventure.blogspot.com/2015/05/what-alice-forgot-by-liane-moriarty.html
100 Page" Rule Books. Sunday, May 3, 2015. What Alice Forgot by Liane Moriarty. Why does her mother look like she's wearing fancy dress? And what's all this talk about a giant lemon meringue pie? In the days that follow, small bubbles of the past rise to the surface, and Alice is forced to confront uncomfortable truths. It turns out forgetting might be the most memorable thing that's ever happened to her. My take: 3 looks. A fun, light read for the summer! Is the best description of all! Want an email wh...

http://carmensbookadventure.blogspot.com/2015/05/if-at-first-you-dont-succeed.html
100 Page" Rule Books. Tuesday, May 19, 2015. If at first you don't succeed. I have had an issue lately with not being able to "get into" a book that I am reading. Some of my latest fails:. The Ice Cream Queen of Orchard Street. By Susan Jane Gilman. So, if they don't grab me right away, I close it and pick up another. I don't get frustrated or feel bad, and I certainly don't press on reading a book in which I am not interested. I remember this happening with a few of my favorites:. People of the Book.

Carmen's Book Adventure: Two in one: Beside Still Waters -and- Restoreth My Soul, both by Debbie Viguie
http://carmensbookadventure.blogspot.com/2015/05/two-in-one-beside-still-waters-and.html
100 Page" Rule Books. Monday, May 11, 2015. Two in one: Beside Still Waters -and- Restoreth My Soul, both by Debbie Viguie. I am going to skip the summaries on this two-in-one. My take: 2.5 looks. I read the first two in this series of 11 (so far) last year, and put them aside for a while. I couldn't remember why until I read #4 and #5 in the series over the weekend. Now I remember. I really, really want to love these books. However, I am finally admitting that they are too sophomoric for me. Library Loo...

Carmen's Book Adventure: Wednesday Word: Thug
http://carmensbookadventure.blogspot.com/2015/05/wednesday-word-thug.html
100 Page" Rule Books. Wednesday, May 6, 2015. Once again, our precious language has been hijacked. Because of the riots in Baltimore, and the media, the mayor of Baltimore, the governor of Maryland, and the president of the United States of America all using the word "thug" for these rioters/looters/thieves, it has suddenly become a racist term. Because the majority of these thugs (used correctly here, may I add) are black does not automatically make this a racial slur. Carmen, the Milligan Mom. Blogs wo...
