This is my first time reading a book from this author. I enjoyed it from the beginning to the very end. The story is about a star reporter for a big city paper is exactly where she wants to be. When her new job doesn't work out, she returns home back to where she started, working for her sister who is trying to keep The Silver Bay Beacon afloat. The star reported after returning home witnesses an accident that ends in the death of a local congressman, a beloved war hero with a shady past. This story will have surprises, some good and bad. I hope whoever decides to read this enjoys it just as much as I did.

Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets is the second book in the series. In this book Harry Potter goes to his second year at Hogwarts.

I enjoyed reading this book and would rate it a five.

OMG. this book is amazing. I can't believe that I haven't heard about this book more from other people who have recommended me mystery novels. The way the author keeps us guessing until the last turn of the book is a trait that I have not seen in many others

A novel about my two favorite professions. Had to read it. Was not disappointed!

A Certain Hunger
by Chelsea G. Summers

book cover


THIS BOOK WAS SO REFRESHING I SWEAR. We love women who are witty, funny, and bitchy in the best way possible. Again I swear another “literally me” character. This book was like “American Psycho” but instead of my silly Patrick Bateman yapping his ass off about Armani suits, it was Dorothy making me hungry with her descriptions of exquisite foods.

OCME
by Bruce Goldfarb

book cover


Interesting history about the Office of the Chief Medical Examiner in Baltimore, MD. Thought it would be more of a memoir, but a lot of time was dedicated to talking about the formation of the OCME and I found it a little bit boring.

The Secret Life Of Bees
by Sue Monk Kidd

book cover


Heartwarming and enchanting novel that captivated me with its rich characters and poignant exploration of found family, set against the backdrop of 1960s South Carolina. Sue Monk Kidd's lyrical prose and the powerful bonds formed between Lily and the Boatwright sisters made this an unforgettable read that left me feeling both moved and uplifted.

Another great novel by Kristin Hannah. The Women is a novel set during the Vietnam War and a young woman,Frankie, who enlists as a nurse, and following her journey during and after the war. I couldn’t put this book down, but it was a very emotional read.
