Oh wow.. the way it ended. I love it and I loved how it ends. I am also sad it ended and I hope to see more stories in the future about some of the other characters. I really enjoyed how it came together and what happened. Very good series and I totally recommend it to my friends. I am so glad I got to review it

This book is witty, funny, sad, entertaining, and I truly loved every page. I have always loved Amy Poehler, but this book brought so many things about her to light that made me love her even more. She gives advice, she tells embarrassing stories, and she allows the reader to relate to her on personal levels. One of my favorite books I’ve ever read.

The women's murder club take on two cases. The first involves either murder or medical malpractice at a hospital. The second involves murdered women being left in expensive cars. Both were good stories, although the climax was so bad it killed much of the enjoyment for me.

Four Christmas novels - two romance, one mystery, and one chick lit. I bought it for Laura Levine's mystery novella featuring her sleuth Jaine Austen. I loved it as always. Two of the other stories were enjoyable, but Fern Michaels's contribution was just plain bad on all fronts.

I loved the TV series based on this from summer of 2008 and had to see how it began. The three stories collected in this book did form the basis of three episodes. Definitely worth reading for fans of comic books or the TV show.

The collection of the first three Chocoholic mysteries plus the short story that was set and released before the series started. If you haven't started the series, this might be the place to start. The stories are light but fun and the characters are great.

Fascinating
I found this series on Amazon. It's a collection of stories about real historical incidents that took place that sparked the life of some of mankind's legends and myths. Very interesting and thought provoking look into our past as humans and how things(like science and beliefs) have changed over the centuries. With a watch if you are into documentaries told with actors, animation and art!

It was a very simple story full of a long line of strong female characters. As I was reading I was literally building the "family tree" in my head. All the back stories help keep these strong family ties and traditions at the forefront of the story. I really thought I was going to hate this book, but it was the complete opposite.

I really enjoyed this second book in the Crazy Rich Asians series. Rachel and Nick are about to get married when she gets crazy news from her now-approving future mother-in-law: her father is not only alive but is waiting to meet her. There are many ups and downs, new characters’ stories, and lots of glimpses into the life of these crazy rich people!

One of the most confident 5 star ratings I have given so far! This has to be one of the greatest ghost stories I have read in a long time, full of suspense and shocking twists and turns! I highly recommend this novel to horror fans, I just didn't want to put it down. This is one story that will stay on my mind for a while.
