Latest Review: Truth and Evil by G. Edward Martin

I am at the tail end of The Southern Book Club's Guide to Slaying Vampires! It's just the right amount of eerie and is a fun spin on the bored suburban mom trope.

I just joined up and am reading two books and listening to one audiobook. Lending a Paw by Laurie Cass I obtained from my daughters handmade and pink Little Free Library. Also reading Last Day on Mars by Kevin Emerson from the public library. I'm listening to an audiobook, The Widows Of Malabar Hill by Sujata Massey. I'm wondering if reviews are done for audobooks?

We’re reading the same thing at the moment. It’s good you’re liking it so far. It’s not the same for me. :cry:

Currently picking up The Virgin Suicides by Jeffrey Eugenides. It has been sitting on my shelf looking pretty for a while and I want to give it a go!

Every nine minutes: a memoir by Christina Vitagliano. Touching and at the same time intriguing. I got if for free on Amazon, it was yesterday's BOTD and I must say I am hooked!

I am now reading "Quando Dormo" by Edward Izzi. Very disappointing and hard to keep picking it back up. Has a good theme but the writing is less than stellar.

I am reading "Songs In Ordinary Time" by Mary McGarry Morris. It is one of the books from The Oprah's Book Club. It is very interesting so far. The story is about the ups and downs in the town of Atkinson, Vermont in the year 1960. Challenges, frustrations and murder are some of the themes in this book.

I'm re-reading London Match, the final instalment of the Game, Set and Match spy trilogy by Len Deighton. Story is covering the British cold war era in the '80's. I'd love to see Tarantino's adaptation of the novels (one of his many unrealized projects).. What a shame he lost interest during time.

Latest Review: Beyond The Headlights by Allan Davis

Post by Hilda Whitter »

I read Island in the Sun by Monica Carly. I wrote the review and read in the amendment that error correction is not necessary. Well it popped up. The book is in British English which had zero errors and in American English it had more than ten! I freaked out when the error section popped up and counted American English errors. Both however are correct! LOL. Help I'm new.
