When I connect with a book on an emotional level, that's when I know that it's good. When I have to close it up just so that I can contemplate the characters thoughts and ideas and how they relate to mine, that's when you know it's more than good. Th...more

I enjoyed Just One Night, all the way until it left me hanging at the end (part 2 coming soon). One of the things I appreciated most was Kasie's struggle. The battle between what felt good to her and what made sense, was real. We all face that sort o...more

Beautiful Bastard is a beautiful read. I was completely engrossed in this novel. I stayed up until 3am reading it and was completely annoyed with my body for needing sleep! I enjoyed the characters equally, but I loved the fact that Chloe stood up fo...more

To say I enjoyed Release Me would be a complete understatement. I read the majority of the book in one night, reading into the wee hours of the morning (5:30 am to be exact). I didn't want to stop until I knew what happened. I love when a book captur...more

The Prophet is the third book in The Graveyard Queen series and my absolute favorite! While I enjoyed the first two books (and the prequel), there was something especially juicy about this one. I felt like Amelia's eyes were finally open in this one,...more

Chick Best is a loser, even though he tries very hard not to look or act like one. He became a millionaire during the dot.com boom and he has a trophy wife, fast car, and mini-mansion to prove it. What he doesn't have is the respect of his family or...more

“There are random moments - tossing a salad, coming up the driveway to the house, ironing the seams flat on a quilt square, standing at the kitchen window and looking out at the delphiniums, hearing a burst of laughter from one of my children's rooms - when I feel a wavelike rush of joy. This is my true religion: arbitrary moments of of nearly painful happiness for a life I feel privileged to lead.”
― Elizabeth Berg, The Art of Mending
