A Reader's Journal: Two Across
http://readfromatoz.blogspot.com/2015/08/two-across.html
Tuesday, August 04, 2015. This book read like a movie playing in my mind. It's going to make a great chic flick with all the near misses of the main characters realizing their feelings for each other. I like a story that isn't a retold variation of an oft repeated theme. Example in point - all the vampire novels floating around. This is a love story (and I realize those have been around forever) but the setting is new and interesting. I really liked this story although it made me sad at times. If you...

Friday, July 31, 2015. The Lemoncholy Life of Annie Aster. I adored this book. Absolutely loved it. It was magical and fun and I found myself wanting to do nothing else but immerse myself in its story. It made me happy. Has anyone else read this book? What are your thoughts? Never heard of the book before but it certainly sounds intriguing. August 01, 2015 6:56 PM. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom). View my complete profile.

Monday, April 22, 2013. Despite the illusion Sapphire Dubois presents to the rest of the world, she is not just your stereotypical 22-year old Beverly Hills heiress; she hunts serial killers. While her fellow heirs spend their nights with trending celebs and drugs at the hottest club, Sapphire secretly spends hers luring, capturing, and anonymously handing over So-Cal’s most wanted killers to the police — just your average Tuesday night. Friday, April 19, 2013. The One More Thing. And then there's her WW...

A Reader's Journal: Red Skies
http://readfromatoz.blogspot.com/2015/07/red-skies.html
Sunday, July 19, 2015. I have been having the best luck with my latest selections of books. This one was no exception. Red Skies. Is book four in Tales of the Scavenger's Daughters series but it read like a stand alone. I have not read the first three books and don't feel like that detracted at all from the wholeness this book offered. Throw into this mix an American who is trying to check of items on a bucket list. The obvious is that these three people will some how be brought together as the story...

A Reader's Journal: July 2014
http://readfromatoz.blogspot.com/2014_07_01_archive.html
Tuesday, July 01, 2014. I'm a BIG fan of Dean Koontz. There are a few of his books that I haven't cared for but, overall, I like his work. Falls into the category of those I like. I wasn't sure during the first half of the book if he was going to win me over. Not really sure why I didn't care for it in the beginning buy by the end I was fully satisfied. Here's a write-up from the cover:. A young boy, a musical prodigy, discovering life’s wonders—and mortal dangers. These are the people of. From NetGalley...

A Reader's Journal: The Complete Francis of Assisi
http://readfromatoz.blogspot.com/2015/08/the-complete-francis-of-assisi.html
Tuesday, August 04, 2015. The Complete Francis of Assisi. I've read quotes by Francis of Assissi and heard bits and pieces about his life and philosophy but didn't really know that much about him. I knew he was a "friend " to the animals but didn't know he despised education. I downloaded this collection onto my phone so that if I'm waiting somewhere I can reread some of Francis's writings to his followers. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom). View my complete profile.

A Reader's Journal: June 2015
http://readfromatoz.blogspot.com/2015_06_01_archive.html
Tuesday, June 30, 2015. By Neal Baer and Jonathan Greene. I'm not finished with this book yet. In fact, I'm only four or five chapters in but I am so excited about it I wanted to write down some of my early thoughts. We start of in the killer's basement apartment where he's writing on the wall. He is obsessed with words. After two pages I felt the tension and knew this was a scary man. Can you understand why this book has a grip on my attention? And, yes, it is ordered and on its way to my house. I thoro...

Thursday, August 27, 2015. Isn't that a beautiful cover? I love the coloring. Need to make a quilt using that color scheme. The lady walking away piqued my interest - Where is she going? What is she leaving behind? I have a couple of books in my library by Deanna Raybourn but I don't believe I've ever read one of her books. That is about to change. I will be watching for the next books in this series with anticipation. Here's the write-up from Ms. Raybourn's beautiful website:. Monday, August 17, 2015.
