My Reviews

 
Book Club Recommended
Insightful, Interesting, Slow
Over-hyped drama

The drama surrounding Harper Lee's portrayal of our beloved Atticus does not prove to be as shocking as many of the initial reviews. It's a believable character development, so believable, in fact, that it's not a particularly gripping storyline.

Dead Sea Rising: A Novel by Jerry B. Jenkins
 
Slow, Boring, Pointless
There is no pay-off

The story drags along with slow but steady promise, only to end abruptly with no tying up of loose ends. You have to commit to the inevitable next installation; however, the book was not exciting enough to make me want to read part 2.

Limelight: A Novel by Amy Poeppel

Insightful, Optimistic, Fun

The story is light & entertaining...takes you back to your days of youthful celebrity crushes. Then, rewrites the celebrity fantasy morphing it into a modern mom role. Genuinely fun play on where we all think our lives would be if we had a chance encounter with someone rich & famous.

Still Lives: A Novel by Maria Hummel
 
Difficult, Confusing, Boring
Poor character development

There were a lot of characters to follow, but our interest in and knowledge of them was based entirely on description rather than direct action. As a result, I didn't care about them, suspect them or otherwise feel invested in their stories.
