I am currently reading two books Origin in Death by J.D. Robb, which I might PTB on. It's just not holding my interest, and I am reading for the second or third time. The Rise of the Magics (Chronicles of the one) by Nora Roberts.

I am currently reading Bonded in Death by J D Robb.  This LT. Eve Dallas series is one of my favorites.  I have read them all.  The one I am reading is the latest.

Next up is Track Her Down by Melinda Leigh.  A Sheriff Bree Taggert  mystery.

Then The Many Lives and Loves of Lady Hazel Lavery.

In the heart of tumultuous times, amidst the grandeur of Victorian opulence, there existed an American socialite whose influence altered the course of the Anglo-Irish treaty: Lady Hazel Lavery Boston-born Hazel ascended from her Irish roots to become the quintessential Society Queen of Chicago, and later London

Very odd for me but for the last year I've gotten a few books on my Kindle Paperwhite in the genre of shape shifting. I found some of them quite fun and/or interesting. Strange for me as I can't stand anything sci-fi but I have enjoyed these.

It's only been 5 or 6 but they were well done.

I just finished Here One Moment by Liane Moriarty.  It really kept my interest.  I thought her last several books kind of fell off the rails, but while this one was a departure from the types of books I'm used to her writing, she's back on track.

Big Little Lies by Liane Moriarty was a pretty good (but a long book like her other one I read -- What Alice Forgot but totally different of course).

Gave up on The Great Divide by Cristina Henriquez.  Honestly, the most boring, disjointed thing I have tried in a long time.

Started Eruption by Michael Crichton.

My first dnf for March. 

Frances Mayes' A Great Marriage.  I usually enjoy family books but this one was not one of them.  I tried twice and decided it's not worth my time.  I was bored. 

I don't know if I entered somewhere to win this or what but it showed up in my mailbox one day.  I enter so many giveaways, it could have been from anywhere.

Cross Her Heart by Sara Pinborough.

I thought it was good, kept me reading every night. 

Psychological thriller type.

Finished The Cafe with No Name by Robert Seethaler on audiobook last evening. Fiction set in 1960s Vienna (Austria) still rebuilding after World War II, much like the city's inhabitants are striving to survive.

The book's subdued and simple character interactions and atmosphere center around the cafe's visitors and proprietor. The cafe theme was familiar from other reads, but the Vienna setting was different.

This is the second book I've read by the bestseller Seethaler translated from German. The book A Whole Life was the first and I think the better of the two. However, I remain grateful popular works in other languages/countries are translated into English for my understanding and personal enrichment. Cheers!

We All LIve Here. A heart-tugging delight by JoJo Moyes about forgiveness, family and love in all forms.
