I like Vincent and loved Jackie, but most of all, I can't wait to see if Tiny hooks up with Aunt Marguerite!!

7th Heaven by James Patterson


My rating: 3 of 5 stars
Another great book in the Women's Murder Club series. I've enjoyed reading about the women solving the murders but I also enjoy reading about the lives of the women. Happy to see Claire's baby born safely and can't wait to see what happens with Lindsey and Joe. Anxious to get my hands on number 8.

My rating: 4 of 5 stars
Loving htis series more and more. Bastien and Terri were great together. I have the next 3 lined up to read soon. Can't wait to see what happens with the rest of the family. I really like the explanation for vampires in this series. It's scientific and so it makes more sense.

Kiss of the Bees: A Novel of Suspense by J.A. Jance


My rating: 4 of 5 stars
This is the second in the Diane Ladd trilogy. I read the last book first, then this one...guess I'll need to read the first one last. I'd give it 3 and a half stars it they let me give half stars. I think these books are pretty good even read in the wrong order or as stand alones. Liked it alot. Finished it while in Bama and left it with my mom.

43 --The Secret Dreamworld of a Shopaholic

Confessions of a Shopaholic by Sophie Kinsella

My review

rating: 3 of 5 stars
The title of my book is The Secret Dreamworld of a Shopaholic, but my understanding is that they are the same book. Can I just say that at first I really hated this book. I wanted to slap Becca and say, please just stop buying crap. Then I realize that it's a book, a story and that I need to let go and enjoy it for what it was. And I did. I'm not sure that I enjoyed it enough to read others in the series, but maybe I will. Now back to some paranormal I think.

42 -- Private Demon

Private Demon by Lynn Viehl

My review

rating: 4 of 5 stars
Antiquities expert Jem Shaw has two lives: one during the day, when she catalogs museum artifacts and cares for her crippled, bitter mother; the other during the night, when she works with police to search for crime scene evidence. The only place Jem truly feels alive is in her dreams, where unlike real life she can pretend that she's safe and loved and wanted.

Yet when a demon warrior begins showing up in her mind each night, he draws Jem with him into her most secret, intimate fantasies. Finding the key to solving three brutal assault and murder cases, however, isn't as difficult for Jem as waking up to discover that her dream lover is very real -- as are the killers coming for both of them.

Great paranormal romance. If that's your genre, this is a book for you. 2nd in the Darkyn series.

41 -- the four corners of the sky

The Four Corners of the Sky: A Novel by Michael Malone

My review

rating: 3 of 5 stars
For the first time since Handling Sin, a riveting novel of love, secrets, and the mysterious bonds of family, from master author Michael Malone.



On her seventh birthday, Annie's conartist father left her behind at his boyhood home, then he raced out of her life. Years later, Annie, now a top Navy jet pilot, returns home on her 26th birthday. But everything changes when Jack calls to say he is dying, and needs her to fly to St. Louis to bring him the airplane he gave her the day he left. And if she does, he will give her the one thing she always wanted, that he always lied to her about the name of her mother.



The Four Corners of the Sky is a novel of love, sacrifice, and the inexplicable bonds that hold families together. Michael Malone brings these rich characters to life as only he can, evoking the unspoken motivations that drive people to define who they are and break out of those bonds when the call of love comes.



My thoughts: This book started out great. For the first half I loved, loved, loved it. Then the plot got just a little too far-fetched. The characters were real 'characters' and the story was very interesting. I'd certainly recommend it. Taking it to my mom to read, then it goes on my signed first editions shelf.
