Nothing to See Here

Nothing to See Here (7/2/2019)
Not sure where he got the idea of the title but what a delightful book. I don't think I could have done what Lillian did. Her boring life became anything but boring. Helping out an old friend who took advantage of her years ago, does it again. The kids didn't have a normal …more

When We Left Cuba (2/7/2019)

The Days when Birds Come Back (11/29/2017)
I enjoyed the book. The interaction of 2 broken adults that have unresolved problems is interesting. Unfortunately I don't real a lot of these type of books. I find that each person - main ones- June and Jameson are both dealing with issues that could have been taken care …more

by Michiel Heyns
Hmmmm (2/15/2017)
I am sorry but this book just did not interest me and I really tried to read it but just could not get into it. I have not read Henry James so that could be part of the problem

A Certain Age (3/29/2016)
I am half way through the book and I have enjoyed it. Her historical background is great. She really know how to intertwine the characters and I amazed how her dialogue is as if you are there listening. I know by the time I finish the book it will be at the top of my list to recommend.
Sentinel
Sentinel: A Spycatcher Novel

Sentinel by Matthew Dunn (7/23/2012)
As a spy novel this was very good. It was easy to follow- although the Russian names and places were hard to follow at first. I haven't read the first in the series and I lost some of the background. But I really enjoyed it. It was a fast moving story that kept me wanting …more
