Loved Every Fifteen Minutes. It was one of those books that kept me guessing the entire time. Currently reading In the Unlikely Event by Judy Blume.

Every Fifteen Minutes sounds good. I want to read it too!

I just started The Husband's Secret by Liane Moriarty. I finally got set up to check out ebooks from my local library. Big Little Lies had a waiting list, so I decided on this one instead. It's my first book by her and it's good so far.

Reading Remember Murder by Linda Ladd, the 5th in the Claire Morgan series. It's okay, but so far does not match up to the first four in the series.


message 731: by Ang from OZ (new)

Ang from OZ | 1690 comments I hope everyone enjoys the holiday! Anyone have special plans for the day? Labour Day Holiday is in October for Australia. I am looking forward to that long weekend!

Sorry to hear that TarHeelGirl. I've been meaning to pick that series back up because of you if I remember right. Maybe it will get better

Sorry to..."


We did mention this series before. I think the author might be from near your area? It is a really good series, just be warned the crimes are gruesome and very creepy! Even so, Claire's sarcastic demeanor adds some humor among all the creepiness. Head to Head was a Free Friday book a long time back and that's how I got started on the series. Remember Murder is a little different from all the others in that Claire is suffering from amnesia and a good portion of the book so far is devoted to her memories. It is starting to pick up, but still not quite a page turner like the previous four. I'll definitely continue with the series, though.

Well, I was reading "Little Big Lies." I downloaded it from our local library, read a few chapters, and now it isn't working. Very disappointing! I uninstalled and re-installed the app, but still no luck. It is the Axis 360 app and it was recently updated and I understand there are some issues with it. Have any of you ever used it?

I’m halfway through this book and I'm really enjoying it!

Thanks for sharing all, I'm on my very last of my pleasure reads before I head off into my reviewer persona
But it's been a fun read break I got a lot off my huge tbr pile :)

I'm reading for my in-person book club
Hard Country Hard Country (Kerney Family, #1) by Michael McGarrity

Ruth I'll be interested in what you think. It was big a few years back.


message 745: by Ang from OZ (new)

Ang from OZ | 1690 comments I just finished Nalini Singh's Archangels Enigma. I loved it. Reading book 1 now of the edge series by Ilona Andrews, definitely urban fantasy, as it's a bit strange at times. After that i will probably finish off Lori Handelands latest triology with book 3, smoke on the water.

Ruth, I'm interested in your thoughts on this book too as I never had a chance to discuss it with anyone when I read it a couple of years ago. I don't remember all the details but I remember the impression I was left with after finishing it.

Ang, I have a quarter of the book left and I definitely recommend it! The action is set before and during WWII and it turns out to be another story from that period that doesn't disappoint me. It is of course a work of fiction but it's setting could not be more real. I look forward to hearing your thoughts once you read it. I think this would be a great book for discussion.


message 748: by [deleted user] (new)

Susan, tell your sisters my library uses the Axis 360 app. They may use something else, but I think a lot of libraries use it. It could be something I'm doing wrong, because I am new to all this, but my problems started after the update.


message 749: by [deleted user] (new)

Wow! Both "Miss Peregrine's Home for Peculiar Children" and "All The Light We Cannot See" are both books I want to read!

Kamas Kirian (kamas716) | 928 comments Sinuses are still bothering me a little, but no infection anymore. I gave up on Swiss Family Robinson for the time being and started Freehold by Michael Z. Williamson. So far it's really good. Only about 20% right now.
