Wow!! Many tears were shed with this book.
Elsa who was disowned by her family after getting pregnant by teenage Rafe, makes a life for herself on the farm during the dustbowl era in Texas.
Then she ends up in California with her children picking cotton, and rising up against the crooked land owners.
But it's so much more than that. It's the the love she has for her children, it's the strength she has to do this all on her own. It's the length women go to to protect and provide.
It's a beautiful book. One that will stay with for a long time.
Could be spoilers
This one was good. I enjoyed it, didn't love it. Matt, finds out that his family has just been murdered all but one who is in jail.
The FBI has contacted him to go identify the bodies in Mexico. By the time he gets there the bodies have already been released.
Has this got something to do with the investigation his father and sister were doing to get Matt's brother released from prison?
I really enjoyed this one. Can't say too much without giving it away but, It's about Jane the down her luck dog walker meet the man of her dreams. But, he has secrets of his own.
GEEZ LOUISE!! Three POVs, but which one is the truth. Great book. Couldn't put it down. This is one of those books you don't want to know a whole lot about before you start reading. Just go in blind, it's better that way. So good!! I mean some people are just truly not good people.
Very quick read. Enjoyed it. If you are enjoying the Blood and Ash Series you will like this quick read
While I did enjoy this book. I found it quite depressing. These girls have some of the worst luck. In this book we see the worst of people and some of the best in people. I would recommend reading it for yourself, as I did enjoy reading it as I do all of Chevy Stevens books, this one was just really depressing.
Isn't it everyone's dream to inherit a ton of money? Love this book. Love all the riddles and the hunt to solve them.
Teddy who is teacher of the year at a very posh private high school just can't be bothered with all the parents of his student's who just want the “best” for their child. With changed grades or extra credit. Or other teachers who stand in his way.
When Leeds meets quirky Layla, he thinks they will be together forever. Until a tragic event threatens their happiness and almost ends Layla's life. Leeds takes her back to the B&B where they first met to recoup. But, once there Layla begins acting strangely. Leeds forms a connection with another guest at the B&B, Willow.
This is different for Hoover's others novels, but she does a great job with it. Great twists. I would definitely recommend this one.
This book was crazy good. Shows you what hurt people will do to one another. The mother thought she was protecting her daughter and the daughter was just wanting her mother to hurt. It was pretty messed up.
Siblings repeat a road trip taken with their grandfather to get their inheritance. Let's just say it's not a happy road trip. I enjoyed this. Although, the ending wasn't my favorite.
Wow! Now this was a good book. Two people meet on a flight, and one agrees to help the other kill his wife who is having an affair with the contractor. But that is just the beginning. I loved all the twists and turns in this book. This was very well done the twists were not forced. You need to read it. Soooo good!
Was such a good story. I recommend this to anyone who enjoys historical fiction. This really shows the strength of women and just how far they will go to protect their own and things they believe in. One of my favorite reads.
So good!!! You almost need to take notes if you want to try to figure this out on your own. There are plenty of other reviews that explain what is happening way better than I ever could. But just read this trilogy!! I wish I could read it over again for the first time.
Until I feared I would lose it, I never loved to read. One does not love breathing. (pg. 20)
We never put back into the tree what we took out of it: we had given him nothing, and it made me sad. (pg. 320)
This has just become one of my favorite books. So good. I just love Scout. What a little firecracker she is.
This will be one that will go on the re-read shelf for sure.
Great book. What a ride. Mira, who is traveling home for the holidays, when all flights are canceled. Ends up sharing a ride with 4 other strangers. Or are they. Things go from bad to worse when items in their car start to go missing and the roads are getting worse because of the winter storm. Fast paced and keeps you on the edge of your seat.
So good!! Quinn and her father leave Philadelphia to start over in a small town.
They get more than they bargained for not all small towns are sleepy some of them are filled with killer clowns.
This book was one of my favorites as preteen. I picked it up from thrift books since it's now out of print. My preteen self is glad I have it, my much older self wonders why I wasted the time rereading it....lol
Presentation is 5 stars all the way!!
Meanwhile, the storyline did fall a little short. I enjoyed it, it just wasn't as good as the other two books I have read by the same author. My Best Friend's Exorcism and The Southern Book Club's Guide To Slaying Vampires.
I didn't get the hype behind this one, it was just ok for me. Maybe I will give the rest of the series a go sometime. But right now just not interested.
Group of women get together on Friday nights for a girls night out. Drinking, guns, and trouble occurs.
I enjoyed this book. If you don't like reading sexy stuff, then this isn't going to be your cup of tea.
But, what I did enjoy was the strong female lead. She locks herself in her apartment to protect others from her killing urges. She does cyberporn and somehow gets involved in a kidnapping. Definitely holds your attention. Would recommend.
If goodreads would let us go half stars it would be 3.5. The ending helped it. But took me forever to read this one well the beginning did. Flew thru the last half.
