Re: FEBRUARY 2021 READ ANY GOOD BOOKS LAST MONTH?

@GenXmuse 

Agree, that is a good book.  There are many good books from that daunting time period.  Usually when I hear about a new one, I say to myself that I will not read another of those books;  they are certainly filled with evil and tragedy.  Then someone talks me into reading one; most of the time I'm glad I did.  Besides the evil, there were many people who spoke to the truth and acted and did the right thing.  Uplifting, but many times still just so sad and tragic.

I needed a good belly laugh so I re-read Bill Bryson's "A Walk in the Woods."

I have no idea what's going on with my reading lately but it seems that every other book I can't finish. Just ptb on The Whole Way Home by Sarah Creech.  I won it on LT 4 years ago.  It was a fluff kind of book about a famous female singer in Nashville and her love life past and present. 

 

I'm going to try to read Lisa Scottoline's Every Fifteen Minutes.  She never seems to disappoint.

Re: FEBRUARY 2021 READ ANY GOOD BOOKS LAST MONTH?

Hi all,

 

Have not posted here in a while, but try to keep up and read the thread.

 

I read Where the Lost Wander by Amy Harmon and really enjoyed it. It follows a family on the Oregon Trail, the violence and hardship the family endures is heart-wrenching. I just finished The Invisible Life of Addie La Rue by V. E. Schwab which I enjoyed as well. Now on to We Ride Upon Sticks by Quan Barry.

 

Have a good day.

I just finished A Week at The Shore by Barbara Delinsky.  A story of 3 sisters who grew up in a beach house in Rhode Island.  The two older ones have since moved away but the youngest lives there with their father and owns a small cafe in town.  Their father's health is in decline and they wind up together after many years apart.  This book was so good and I highly recommend it.

Just finished The Sleepwalker by Chris Bohjalian, this was so good, read it one day, just could not put it down, and the ending, shocking!

@CareBears  Chris Bohjalian is one of my all-time favorite authors!  MIDWIVES is an outstanding example of his work; read it if you haven't already!

I just finished Fatal Error (Ali Reynolds #6) by J.A. Jance. I rated the book 4 out of 5 on Goodreads, and I have to say that I really enjoyed this book.  I enjoy books that move at a fast clip and make me want to turn the page to see what is going to happen next. 

 

On to my next Library book.
