Reading way too many books at once while I really don't have the vigor for one!

My current read The Forgotten Garden by Kate Morten.. This is my second Kate Morten this year. If you love multigeneration sagas with family secrets , you will enjoy her books.

Have you ever read a book and wondered........what?...... when it was finished. I'm just in a confused state of mind about "The Blind Owl." I think I need someone to interpret the interpretation!

I started reading that title for a book club and found it hard to get into. I made it through the first couple of chapters and then set it aside for another time.
It's definitely more literary than I initially thought it would be. Not a fast read at all, and certainly not for everyone.

I finished reading Marlene . 3.5 rounded up to 4 stars . My review: https://www.goodreads.com/review/show...

Just finished My Last Continent: A Novel. A great debut. Here is my review: https://www.goodreads.com/review/show...
Currently I am not reading anything. I never read other's books while writing. I am in the middle of my fifth novel, however I did read last month, Kendra Reeves Seduction & Secrets and could not put the book down. In fact when I take my mid break from writing I will read her novel Winter Thaw.
Finished
by Janet Fitch-- 4 Stars.Such a dark setting for beautiful writing to emerge. One to be cherished slowly, not a quick burn.

"THE ROSIE EFFECT" ended up on my can't finish it list. Sorry, I responding to the post above me at the time...
Just finished "A MAN CALLED OVE". It started slow... enough so that I almost called Claire to ask why she had loaned it to me. But I kept reading, and caught on to Ove's back story. And then I started to get the current story. By then, the old curmudgeon had grown on me. Have to say that I loved this book!!!Thank you, Claire!!
I've been waiting on a copy from my library for a few months now May... just keep waiting, just keep waiting... :)
Finished
by Andrew Gross-- 4.5 rounded up to 5 Stars.Thriller set during the Holocaust. Really enjoyed this one, had to know how it was going to end, and wasn't disappointed.

I'm in the middle of Redemption Road and loving it. John Hart has written a terrific thriller! One of the best!
