@1Snickers Thank you - I'll order from library. I need to switch to e-books. Now I only do audio. I should do both. Thanks for giving me a 'push.'

I just finished reading It's OK to Laugh by Nora McInerny Purmort. Having recently lost my husband it was a timely book for me. But I think the basics of her grief fit the loss of any loved one. I have read a lot of reviews saying they didn't like her gallows humor. I found it refreshing and found myself laughing through tears several times. Loved the book and hope she writes another to share her stories of moving on with her life.
@cody2 - I am just learning about the loss of your husband. I am so very sorry to hear this. I wish you love, and may his memory be a blessing to you for all the years of your life. Hugs, Sunny xoxox

I just finished Heartstopper by Joy Fielding, IMO it was very good, full of action especially at the end!

I finished The Huntress by Kate Quinn. This book had been on my to-read-wishlist for a while and finally got it from my local library as an e-book. I found myself really enjoying the story when it was about the female flyers in Russia and the Europe war stories. However I didn't enjoy the part based in Boston with the teenage girl and her family. When all of the main characters came to USA to track the Huntress, it just seemed to drag and I found myself starting to skim the chapters since the book is quite long. Overall I enjoyed the book but didn't love it. Sort of surprised to say that since it has tons of glowing reviews. I didn't know previously about the female pilots fighting for Russia in World War II so that was very interesting and if the book would have been just about that part, I think I would have enjoyed it more. I enjoyed the author's other book The Alice Network much more.

Just finished On Division by Goldie Goldbloom. I'm not sorry I read it but here's my review to explain it better.
"It was a frustrating and hard book to read in my opinion. Sort of sad and depressing but yet I couldn't stop reading it and it was fast reading.
Onto A Reason To Be by Norman McCombs. |

Now that my library has re-opened for curbside Holds, I have some new books to read! I read Danielle Steel's new novel, THE WEDDING DRESS, and thought it was pretty good. It's about a dress passed down through 4 generations of a family. Then, I read the latest entry in the Temperance Brennan "Bones" series, A CONSPIRACY OF BONES, by Kathy Reichs. Her books are hit or miss with me, and this one was a miss. I ended up just skimming it.
One of our friends here on the Book Forum recommended the mysteries of Scandinavian author Viveca Sten. I am reading the first book in one of her series, called STILL WATERS, and I like it very much. I have been to Stockholm, so I am enjoying picturing the scenery.
@icezeus - I agree with you about John Sandford's STORM FRONT. I didn't like it either. I think 99% of his books are great, but every once in a while there's a stinker.
I love J. D. Robb's In Death books too. I've read the whole series several times.

I just finished Murder at the Bomb Shelter, book 3 of the 1950's cozy historical mystery series featuring Rosa Reed, by Lee Strauss. This is an off-shoot of the Ginger Gold mysteries by the same author. Rosa Reed is the daughter of Ginger Gold and Basil Reed, and went from a police detective in London to starting her own private investigation business in California. Very good series.

Am 100 pages in to The Book of Longings by Sue Monk Kidd. It's very, very excellent.
I love all her books. She is such a good writer.
This is one of the best books I've read in ages.
