Just started reading this book by Kristin Higgins.  Although I may regret it because I’ll have the song in my head forever….More to come.

Today’s book was written by Kristan Higgins.  This book was fabulous!  But what I’m finding out is that I have to ration the books I read by this author.  She doesn’t have that many left that I haven’t read yet, and since I read at the speed that I do, this is a major problem.

Today’s book was written by Elaine Fox.  This was one of her first stand-alone novels and is a retelling of Cinderella.  The story takes place in a small island town in Maine called Candlewick Island.  Anne Sayer, the event coordinator for the property, is preparing for the return of Connor Emory.  The Emory’s own the [...]

Just finished reading this book by Jennifer Crusie.  I must be on a fairy-tale kick, but this book was great.  A simple Cinderella-themed tale about a woman in need of funds, a man in need of a fiance for work purposes, and a lot of fun and quirky animals and friends.
Crusie creates these characters that [...]

Just finished reading this book by Susan Mallery.  This is the second book in the Fool’s Gold series and definitely one of the more serious stories by Mallery that I’ve read.
In this chapter of the Fool’s Gold series we meet Liz Sutton, a successful mystery author, who has literally pulled herself up by her own [...]

Just finished reading this book by Heidi Betts while we were driving back from Denver.  I really enjoyed this book and it was a nice conclusion to Betts’s knitting triology.  This story followed the tumultuous relationship between Grace Fisher and Zack Hoolihan.  As we learned from the last book, Grace caught Zach in a compromising [...]

My husband and I started reading this book by Lev Grossman in transit to Colorado.  This book has been billed as an adult Harry Potter and I have to say that I agree with this comparison.  I think the term “magician” might be a misnomer, since it’s a little more along the lines of magic [...]

Today’s book was written by Pamela Clare and is the first book in the I-Team series that I’ve just started to read.  This book follows Kara McMillian as she investigates a Colorado mining company after receiving some troubling information from a whistleblower.  Think Erin Brokovich, only better dialogue and action (both in and outside of [...]

Just finished reading this book by Susan Mallery.  This was the first book in the Fool’s Gold series.  According to her website, this is Mallery’s first attempt at a series without a definite end in mind.  So far, this series is great.  On a side note, I have to say that I was a little [...]

Just finished reading this book by Susan Andersen.  This was a reissue of a novel written in 2005.  It’s the first of a short series involving Vegas showgirls.  I really liked this book.  Every now and then Andersen really does a great job of tying in a character who may be someone you might normally [...]
