Water for Elephants A Novel by Sara Gruen

I really enjoyed this book and I gave it four stars on goodreads, but I think I would have preferred 3.5. I have read a few books in a row that really didn’t do it for me so Water for Elephants was a welcome change by comparison. Water for Elephants opens the door to the [...]

Jellicoe Road by, Melina Marchetta

Another fantastic novel from an Aussie! Jellicoe Road…where the tops of the trees reach across the street to form a canopy that the light shines through…Taylor Markham describes her almost home. Just 11 years old when she was abandoned by her mother at the Jellicoe Road boarding school, Taylor is now a senior and a [...]

Rilla of Ingleside by Lucy Maud Montgomery

I was thinking of my favorite love stories and I remembered this one. So I picked it up and read it again. And I still love it. It is still so good. This is the last book in the Anne of Green Gables series. The whole series is worth reading, but I just love this [...]

Very creative and effective by the author. New characters and more back story flesh out the novel, and a mostly terrific finish.

Twilight by Stephenie Meyer

I was pleasantly surprised by this book. I was not expecting to like a book classified with words like ‘young adult’ and ‘romance’. The writing was great, the characters were well developed, and the plot lines were believable. An exciting combination of danger and forbidden love keeps the tension high. This book will not change [...]
