A fine thriller, but not fantastic. Again, I needed a distraction and this served the purpose well...and no nightmares!

Robin Rountree rated a book 4 of 5 stars Most Talkative: Stories from the Front Lines of Pop Culture by Andy Cohen read in May, 2012	Rate this book Clear rating 1 of 5 stars 2 of 5 stars 3 of 5 stars 4 of 5 stars 5 of 5 stars
If you like Andy Cohen, its a fun read. I would have liked more scoop on the Housewives, but all in all, a nice light memoir.

Robin Rountree rated a book 4 of 5 stars Skinnydipping by Bethenny Frankel read in May, 2012	Rate this book Clear rating 1 of 5 stars 2 of 5 stars 3 of 5 stars 4 of 5 stars 5 of 5 stars
Ok...I love Bethenny, so that completely biases my review. That being said, I desperately needed escapist fiction, and I got it. An easy, enjoyable read, it only could have been better if I had read it while on the beach.

A charming read. Some seriously funny lines I had to read out loud to my husband. Looking forward to another book from the author.

Not bad for "chick lit". I will give it props for being the first book I actually followed through with until the ending. I've been going through a stretch of books I start and don't finish, so at least this book kept my interest and compelled me eno...more

When I go to Columbus, I want to see my friends, and eat Jeni's Splendid Ice Cream. Now I can make Jen's ice cream at home. I've only made her vanilla ice cream twice, but am in LOVE with the results, and can't wait to try more recipes!

I picked this up as a vacation read...and didn't get to it on vacation. Not a bad book, it just didn't grip me. I read quite a few reviews that said "I couldn't put this book down". Really? I put it down, and frequently. The plot twists were ok, but...more
