I just read Mrs. Everything by Jennifer Weiner. It was a great book. It is about two sisters and their lives through the years. It is loosely based on the authors mother. Highly recommend.

Shutter Island isn't a Kenzie and Gennaro book; it stands alone. The book is getting really strange, but interesting. Somehow I can't imagine Leonardo DiCaprio as the main character.

Uh-oh, don't like him. I'll have to dream up someone else if I read it. (let me know if you liked it!)

The next Harry Bosch book on my list is The Brass Verdict.  Turns out it's really a Mickey Haller book.  I can't stand the character (mainly because of those inane commercials) so I think I'll skip it. I know Harry is in it, he just isn't the main character.

 

I'm almost finished with The Patron Saint of Liars (Ann Patchett's first book) and it's just ok.  The main character is vaguely unlikeable and there is no clear motivation for her actions.  Ann Patchett is hit or miss for me, but I'm looking forward to her new book coming out in September.  

 

I'm sort of reading My Lovely Wife (because of all the hype). Supposed to be some big twist coming.  I can hardly wait.

I just finished Rooted in Deceit by Wendy Tyson.  It's the 4th book in her mystery series.  The main character is a lawyer from Chicago who moves back to her small hometown in PA to run the family farm.  I like the characters and the stories are good.

I was so choked up about Maeve even though you saw it coming.

Mickey's not my favorite either. I don't want a court room drama when I pick up a book. I have to be more selective in my Bosch books.
