Re: WHAT ARE YOU READING? MAY 2020

Yesterday I finished Diamonds Are a Girl's Best Friend by Jenny Colgan.  The story of a young woman who grew up in a wealthy home.  Things happen in her life and she is no longer wealthy.  She has to find a place to live and winds up taking a room in an apartment with 4 guys.  They are all struggling one way or another.  I enjoyed this book and a twist near the end made me very happy that it turned out like it did.

I got a library e-book of "THE 20TH VICTIM," the latest in the the Women's Murder Club series by James Patterson.  Pretty good, so far.

The Hunting Party (Lucy Foley).  I thought it was fairly good, but predictable.  A lot of unlikeable characters.  3.5 stars.

 

The Last House Guest (Megan Miranda).  Despite a few loose ends, an enjoyable mystery.  4 stars.

 

The Night Fire (Michael Connelly), the latest Bosch/Ballard book.  Love Harry and Renee is growing on me.  5 stars.

Re: WHAT ARE YOU READING? MAY 2020

Today I finished Daisy Jones & The Six by Taylor Jenkins Reid.  The Six is a rock band just starting out in the '70's.  Daisy has an amazing voice and is eventually asked to join the band.  It's a rags to riches story with many challenges.  I loved this book and didn't want it to end.
