I loved this.
Baldacci is one of my favorites.
I enjoy Grisham a lot, but I didn't adore this one.
I posted about this book here. Great stuff!
This book is by a local educator/author. I enjoyed it.
I didn't love the language at all, but the plot is riveting. Five stars! Go read it now.
I kind of feel ho hum about this book.
This one was entertaining for sure.
Talk about an amazing true story. It's coming out in theaters later this year I believe.
Thanks Deanna Jump for the linky.
I have only read one of the ones you listed...I read nonfiction and you read fiction! You know I love, love, love Unbroken! So glad that you are getting to relax this summer and read!

Lori, I crave fiction. Reading Unbroken was good for me though. It was such a great story.
DeleteI'm the same way about sleeping. I tend to go to bed earlier in the summer and get up roughly around the same time-or my canine alarm clock gets me up anyway! :) Some titles I will definitely have to check out-I didn't even realize Barbara had written a book. Thanks for sharing!

Miss Trayers, in the summer my body just doesn't let me sleep 10 hours a night like it will during the school year. It bums me out. :)
DeleteOn the sleep thing...I'm right there with you. I need a new bed (seriously), but during the school year I'm so exhausted it doesn't seem to bother me as much. In the summer, I toss and turn trying to get comfortable. And sleep in? What is that anyway? I'm still up pretty early, 6:30 or so. :-/
ReplyDeleteGlad you have got in some good reads though!

Crystal, it doesn't seem to matter how early I go to bed on a school night, 5:30 is always too early to wake up, but still I can easily sleep 10 hours. During the summer, it doesn't seem to matter how late I go to bed, I'm still waking up way earlier than I'd like. :)
DeleteThanks for sharing all those titles. I'm adding them to my list.
ReplyDeleteOn the sleep thing...maybe an eye mask so the early morning ... That's what I do:)
Barb, If you read Gone Girl, let me know what you think! I've never tried an eye mask. Hmm.
Delete"Unbroken" is THE BEST. Can't wait for the movie! And I loved "Where'd you go Bernadette". Such a fun and interesting way to tell a story!
ReplyDeleteLeigh Anne, Unbroken was an amazing and unbelievable story, wasn't it?
DeleteHow fun that you gave my little book another shout out ... thank you, my friend! We're honored to be among such great company on this list.
