Re: WHAT ARE YOU READING? MAY 2020

  I just finished Sold On A  Monday by Kristina McMorris.

It's about the depression years and a reporter seeing children with a For Sale sign.  
 People bought children then to work on the farms. Their parents sometimes couldn't afford to feed them.

  It was a fast read with several twists and  held my interest.

  I'm now reading Olive Again after enjoying the first book. 
  Olive is quite a character!

Recently finished reading two books by Archer Mayor.  He writes a series with main character "Joe Gunther" of the Vermont Bureau of Investigation set in Vermont.  These are the latest titles in the series:  BURY THE LEAD and BOMBER'S MOON.  They were both good reads.

The Adventurer's Son A Memoir by Roman Dial (5+++ Stars)

The Shining Girls by Lauren Beukes

 

Taking The 7 1/2 Deaths of Evelyn Hardcastle by Stuart Turton (a favorite author of mine) on vacation to Myrtle Beach. It's a long mystery and should last me the entire time.

 

Everyone have a safe and happy holiday!

Yesterday I finished Lost and Found Sisters by Jill Shalvis.  A story about how life can throw you some big surprises and make you wonder who you really are.  A very good story.

Just finished The Heirloom Garden by Viola Shipman (aka Wade Rouse).  Loved it and have read one of his others.  Not to be missed. 4 stars.  Not quite 5 stars since it could have been 100 pages or shorter. 

 

Onto Ellen Lindseth's The Long Path Home.
