I’ve been collecting some of the Nora Roberts audio books which are not at the library. I knew this was the one I most wanted to hear. Since they are almost all standalone, they should be easier to fit into the reading schedule. The Search is about a woman who trains K9 dogs for search […]
Heartwood is a mystery told by a character story. Valerie is a nurse hiking the Appalachian Trail in Maine, supported by her husband, who is not hiking but following along. Lena is an older woman living in a nursing home who watches birds and works on various ideas in her mind. Beverly is a game […]
A modern retelling of Persuasion set in Scarsdale, NY on a local high school campus gives readers an inside and humorous peek at the life of a high school guidance counselor who is brought face to face with the one she let go. I was curious with such a set up for a second chance […]
Emily Henry and Julia Whelan are favorites and really bring characters and worlds to life. Great Big Beautiful Life in a way similar to other books is a character growth and love story. Alice goes to see a wealthy woman who she found after she disappeared 20 years ago after her husband died. The husband […]

Strangers in Time is set during World Ward II England and has three main characters who lose the people close to them. Mr. Oliver is a […]
Grim Reaper with a hangover is how this was explained to me and it kinda fits. Hell Bent is the first book in Broken Magic, a spin off series to Allie Beckstrom. I had not read the prior series at all but didn’t have any trouble following the story. I think I would have cared […]
The purpose of Thrifty Thursday is to read a book which was free (at some point). This is a collection of freebies which are set in Australia. There are a few police procedurals from Fiona Tarr. Then there is an amateur private investigator from Kerry Greenwood. The books from Anna Willett are what I think […]
A hockey fan has a severe allergic reaction and the team equipment manager comes to the rescue. Sarina Bowen’s hockey romances are familiar, enjoyable territory for me though it’s been a bit since I picked one up. I’ve had this shorter in between story setting on my ereader collecting dust and finally got around to […]
