Alison Pink (7 KP) rated That Night in Books
Jan 15, 2018
Another great book by Stevens! Her novels are always quick reads. They are very easy to get hooked in to & the stories are always so true to life. I found myself rooting for Toni through the whole story. She was a likable character despite the guilt & accusations swirling around her & Ryan. I look forward to reading more of her work.
Suswatibasu (1703 KP) rated An Honest Thief in Books
Jul 28, 2017
Simple straightforward fable
An easy read, contrary to many of Dostoyevsky's novels. The honest thief raises the question of whether it is fine to forgive or accept a lie in some circumstances especially when there are more important things to be worrying about.
Dostoyevsky's short stories are always a joy to read and listen because of the power of his storytelling.

Maas takes the time to put into her stories because everything becomes 1000x more realistic and emotional. The story does take a bit to get moving, though, and I wasn’t totally into it until about 1/4 of the way through. So hang in there

Cattyana (39 KP) rated One Day We'll All Be Dead And None Of This Will Matter in Books
Aug 16, 2017
Honest, funny, sad, thought provoking. (4 more)
The author in unapologetically herself.
Actual emails from the authors father (especially the author bio) was a breath of fresh air.
Relatable stories as a fellow minority attempting to assimilate as a child.
Although a comedy for most of the book, the author knew when and was able to be serious.
Hilarious relatable memoir
Whatchareadin (174 KP) rated 10th Anniversary (Women's Murder Club, #10) in Books
May 10, 2018
2.5 stars. This WMC book was not one of my favorites. There didn't seem to be as much police action in this book. The crimes stories were weak. Opening closed cases, crime reporters chasing leads, roadtripping with your best friend. Its getting more personal and less action packed. Not that I mind the personal, but I prefer more crime to be the focus.

a good 30+ hours spent listening to all these many and varied short stories. My first introduction the Dunc and Egg (G.R.R.Martin) I picked this up for the Robin Hobb story which, as always, didn't disappoint. I have however now found many other excellent authors to feast my eyes and ears on. Enjoy reading or listening, it is definitely worth the time.

A lovely novella! I love the Love Inspired line and I adore Amish stories and this is the best of both worlds! This 4 star novella is filled with loving characters and beautifully written by a new to me author. If you are looking for a story filled with hope, love and understanding, look no further! Well done, Ms. Bale!

The Craggus (360 KP) rated Pet Sematary (2019) in Movies
Apr 13, 2019
Pet Sematary (2019) just goes to show that when it comes to certain stories, sometimes read is better.
Handsomely produced and atmospherically shot, this re-adaptation of Stephen King’s powerful exploration of grief serves to underline the key message of the original novel: it’s best to let dead things rest...

Elizabeth (1521 KP) rated Born a Crime: Stories from a South African Childhood in Books
Apr 24, 2019
I wanted to be able to give it more stars, but the narrative jumped back and forth through time a bit too much for me. Because of this, there was some repetition that disrupted my focus and took away from the narrative. I love Trevor Noah and enjoyed hearing his stories from his childhood. I just wish the book had been better organized.
