The Women's Murder Club is back with a story of deaths in hospitals and a doctor who is a little too melodramatic for his own good. Excellent as always!

The story line is frighteningly believable. This is a rapid paced book that you can't skim because each page is rich and full of detail. That is, until you get to the end. Once again an author disappoints me by rushing from the point where the loose ends start coming together to the last page.
At one point, I was looking at the number of pages left and thought the story could not possibly come to a conclusion and that I was going to be left hanging till the next book came out in a year and then boom, done, here is the last page.
It was abrupt and hasty and ruined the book for me in a way. It would have been five stars if this hadn't been the way it ended.

When Jack Reacher is thinking hard, you can literally hear the gears meshing, moving and rearranging the data. He is quite the force to be reckoned with and this tale of how his feet hit the road he's walked in the 15 other books is a GREAT read.
Lee had me fooled a few times, as I trotted down the stray paths he set out for me. Enjoy this one - it is rich, like all the rest.

I wish I had read this book when I was young, but would I have understood it then? If I had, my ex-husband would never had a chance of becoming my husband!
This was a marathon read and it was well worth getting from page one to the end. You won't be disappointed by this book and you will find your mind twisting at times when the small things that didn't seem so bad on their own are shown to be HUGE as they lead to more and more controls by those grasping for power they can only have if we yield it to them.
At times I felt like the destruction described here is nipping at my heels here in 2012. I have to hope there are brave and smart rational men and women ready to rebuild from the ashes settling at our feet.

Another great Patterson story - this time it is rich vs working class, neighbors and friends sticking together and "amazingly", justice proving it often isn't "for all"...

This book is beautifully written. The language will wish over you. I could taste it, smell it and feel it. What a wonderful set of stories of lives interwoven in the oddest ways. Beautiful, lyrical language feast!

Wonderful story with a main character you watch grow up in her strong Italian family. Set in Baltimore.
Roberts weaves a great story here with family, job and love all wrapped together.

If you're reading this you're a reader, possibly a book lover, and more than likely someone who mourns the demise of physical bookstores in the United States. Being in a bookstore with Nina was only a part of her story but it said a lot about who she was and the choices she made. She's an interesting character who is created a life for herself. A rather peculiar upbringing doesn't seem to impair of her as much as you might think it would. This is a fun read that is uplifting and hopeful and when is there a day that we don't need that? Thank you for a lovely read Abbi.

I grew up a Cubs fan and that means I may never love another team more than the Cubs of the 1960s. This book took me back to a time when baseball was part of every day. The games watched on WGN while folding laundry or ironing my dad's work clothes in the days before permanent press.
No one in my world was a professional athlete but we played softball on the boulevard, lived for Ladies Day when mom took us to Wrigley Field, and put aside most other pursuits when there was a game on TV.
This book is a novel about a game, a father and his son and the mystery of how we grow into the people we become, due to or in spite of the parents we get in the genetic lottery of birth.
If you love baseball, are a father or a son, this will touch you. Grisham is a great story teller and his play by play of the games put me in my room late at night listening to an away game on the transistor radio tucked under my pillow. Time travel with him back to a time when baseball players were heroes, right alongside our Fathers.

An ever increasing cast of characters in this town become embroiled in bringing it, and themselves back to life. Baseball, theater, foodies, artists, carpenters and landscapers are merged into a community that is working hard to come back to life.
The men actually talk to the women and declare their feelings so we know this is fiction. The romantic sequences are steamy, so adults only.
