The Perfect Divorce
by Jeneva Rose
View in Library Catalog
book cover


This is Book 2 of the Perfect Series. Both books deal focus on the marriages of attorney Sarah Morgan. Although I enjoyed the twists in this thriller I also found it to be very convoluted. It was almost as if there were too many victims and characters to keep track of.

After reading The Favorite Girl, I had high hopes for this book. It sadly fell flat with repetitive antics, themes, and nonsensical twists. Demi "escapes" to a resort that is run by Ian's brother and she eventually realizes that she didn't better her life by leaving after all.

This book had me from the very first page to the very last page. It is about a detective who returning to the scene of a murder crime is attacked. She doesn't recall a single detail from that night. The detectives see a pattern in these recent murders. These calling cards has the detectives go back 40 years . This involves a man who had this obsession with cutting his victims. He even cut his daughters, the younger daughter could not feel pain . The oldest daughter was violent and after both children were removed from the home. While in foster care the older sister murdered a boy from the neighborhood, and was arrested and has been locked away for many years. The youngest was adopted and was adopted and led a very professional life as a psychologist I could go on and on with this story and all the plots and twist . I recommend reading this book .

The Women

book cover


Kristin Hannah takes on a historically close fictional experience of women in wartime with the story of Frankie McGrath. Cheer for her as she learns to love nursing side by side with war heroes who saved lives and comforted the dying. Suffer with her on her return through a difficult reentry but a path to healing and recovery. Kristin Hanna provides a rich list of further reading. A Piece of my Heart by Keith Walker is a treasure trove of the experiences of 26 nurses--true tales. An all time fave is Tim O'Brien's The Things They Carried. As part of a generation that didn't experience a draft but was just younger than one that did, reading the stories gave me a chance to understand better what veterans live through and live with all of their lives.

In the book Drama a girl named Callie is trying to figure out how to handle seventh grade. She deals with confusing crushes, middle school hardships, budding friendships, and tween hardships.

The Naturals

THIS BOOK IS A MUST-READ!! I can't believe that this book is not talked about more. I love the little blurbs between the chapters and the way they solve the case in the end. Can not believe the way that the psychology of the characters and the killer is ingrained in the book from the start. The characters are written beautifully and I will be continuing onto the next book.

Princess Jellyfish

I completed my first manga as part of Book Riot's Read Harder Challenge. And, I have to say, I enjoyed it! There were a lot of Japanese cultural concepts that were unfamiliar to me, but the footnotes and endnotes helped a lot. I didn't realize manga were read back to front either, so that was a little hard to get used to but was routine by the end of the book. I'm not sure I'll continue with manga, but I'm glad the challenge exposed me to something different! It was nice that the characters were single women with passions that society deemed unusual.
