All You Have to Do Is Call

I didn't know anything about the Janes, a group of (mostly) women in the 1970s in Chicago who worked to provide women with access to abortions at a time when it was illegal in the United States. This book is a fictional imagination of a group of women who may have participated in this type of network. I enjoyed the story and the history behind it and am eager to read more, particularly in light of the current legal and political environment in the United States.

Death On The Nile
by Agatha Christie

book cover


Death On The Nile by Agatha Christie is a superb book with numerous twists and turns. It demonstrates an incredible plot, diverse and unique characters, and the sense of being trapped with the killer. It also utilizes third-person narrative in a very satisfying way, allowing us to know what the characters are thinking yet also not spoil the ending. However, the story has a very long exposition, taking up a good portion of the book, and a shorter (yet still long) "falling action/conclusion" taking up a small section of the book. In summation, this well-made book with an incredible plot is great for readers, as long as they have some patience.

I absolutely loved this book. Beautiful and heartwarming story, well-developed characters, and a perfectly paced plot about one of my favorite topics -- books and the people who love them. This story was laugh out loud funny at times, which I appreciated, even though parts of the story were sad. Good message, great ending. I'm so glad I discovered this author.

Once again the books are not falling short; my parents have been reading it with us and the drama with fantasy has us engaged plus they want to make sure it is kept appropriate. It is better detailed than a television series which is great for improving my vocabulary.

Three Sisters

Another fascinating story of survival during the Holocaust and the family's resettlement in Isreal. Same author of the more well-known "Tatooist of Auschwitz" and MY favorite 'Cilka's journey" which seems to be less known.

I LOVE LOVE LOVE Raina Telgemeir books and this one was no exception. Even though it was a very simple story, I loved experiencing Cat grow into her new town and get more comfortable with their obsessed with ghosts. This was an easy, fun read and I loved it.
