Cover of "The Dollmaker"
    • The Dollmaker

    • This book has a wonderfully imaginative premise and well crafted characters. Not as strong on either suspense or chills as I would have expected from reading the cover blurbs, but a story worth reading nonetheless.

Cover of "Bobbie Faye's"
    • Bobbie Faye's (kinda, sorta, not exactly) Family Jewels

    • Bobbie Faye is back and it's new day. Unfortunately this day doesn't show any signs of being any less dangerous than the very, very, very, very bad day she just had.

      Bobbie Faye is back and it's new day. Unfortunately this day doesn't show any signs of being any less dangerous than the very, very, very, very bad day she just had. This time Bobbie needs to find her Aunt Marie's missing diamonds which are worth millions - each. And the catch is that there are at least three separate groups looking to get their hands on the diamonds, all willing to hurt members of Bobbie Faye's family if she doesn't deliver the diamonds directly to them. All the old cast members are back and the game is on.
      However, I found this book slightly less appealing than the first one. The first book was chock full of action and laugh out loud situations. While this book also had a good helping of Bobbie Faye getting herself into (and out of) ridiculously dangerous situations, more time was spent developing the romance between Bobbie and Trevor and reviving the romance between Bobbie and Cam which made for quite a few slow spots in-between the action.

Cover of "Sisterhood of the Traveling Pants"
    • Sisterhood of the Traveling Pants

    • This was a terrific book about growing up. All four characters are wonderfully well developed and each one spends her summer learning how to tear through the gossamer veils of childhood and face the difficult issues of acceptance, love, death, and disappointment.

Cover of "The Princess Diaries"
    • Princess Diaries

    • Laugh out loud funny. The story line is a bit different than the movie which kept the book interesting, but I also missed some of the more familiar dialog from the movie.

Cover of "The Ruins"
    • The Ruins

    • The author did an excellent job showing the different psychological reactions people have to being caught in a deathly trap and some moments were truly gripping but overall this was just an average psychological thriller/horror story.

Cover of "Monkeewrench"
    • Monkeewrench

    • A suspenseful, well-paced story together with a quirky cast of characters (all who just happen to have mysterious backgrounds) makes a book that will have you hooked from the start.

Cover of "My Sister's Keeper"
    • My Sister's Keeper

    • This is a very poignant, well-written story that not only will touch your heart but will really get you thinking about the tragedy of childhood illness, the hard choices these parents have to make, and how both these things powerfully affect the whole family.
