  • Mesmerizing!

    Brunonia Barry should win an award for this book! The characters are believable. I'm taken in by their personalities entirely. Salem, MA is an interesting and superb choice for, The Lace Reader.

Jeannette never gave the impression that she wanted to illicit sympathy. At times, I just loved her parents and then I wanted to throttle them. It is an enjoyable read. The love between the siblings is a treasure. I was sad when the book ended, because I wanted more. Which is how I feel after a really good book. ... (continue)

Cover of The God of Animals

  • The characters are all very interesting. We had such a lively discussion about this book at my book club. All of us there had nothing, but good reviews. It makes you want to ride horses and love animals.

Cover of The Septembers of Shiraz
Cover of April in Paris

  • I started thinking about this book in the middle of a America's greatest theme park! Does that tell you anything? A most compelling story.
