I'm Currently Reading 2017
You're in for a treat then, for me Book 1 and 2 are the weakest in the series. I actually rated book 1 three stars and almost didn't read book 2, but I always give a series a 2 book chance before I drop it. Glad I did, because the series gets better with each book.
Hurricane
by Cherry Adair 5-Star Adventure, suspense and just awesome.My Review: https://www.goodreads.com/review/show...
This weekend I finished
Breaking the Rules by Suzanne Brockmann.My review: https://www.goodreads.com/review/show...

You grew up in Southern California in the sixties, Anita? Me, too! The Beach Boys graduated from my high school. I was a bit too young for that, but I remember, the year before I entered high school, they came back and played for the '69 prom.
Everyone
wanted tickets to it!
I was young too, so much of what happens in this book was news to me. I have lived in Torrance my whole life and was the "little sidekick" for the Challengers band. Fun times.

Hook: Exiles of the Realm by Adrienne Bell 3 1/2-StarsMy Review: https://www.goodreads.com/review/show...
I finished listening to
this morning. It was meh!I'm reading
and loving it, it thought I would be reading it for days as it is about 700 pages or but I can't stop. I've been reading almost non stop, already on page 500.

The mystery was not a mystery at all, I had guessed everything from the beginning. And the last half an hour was really pointless. Plus Robert landgdon was really acting dumb in this one and was in denial for 99% of the book.

@Gisela it is very imaginative, and wonderful, crazy and yeah I'm enjoying it. Little over half way, the whole time I have these beautiful animated images flashing in my head. This book would make a lovely Studio Gibli film.

ROFL Contemporary Crap LOL That's why I usually stay away from contemps. I read
and loved it but was disappointed by
so I didn't read anything else in that series. I'll have to try that one.
The heroine of Nuts has two best friends and they headline the other two book in the series. These 20-30 somethings are all about the career and making sex/love lives fit their expectations the way they want it to. They find out life doesn't always work that way.
Older novella re-release with hot new cover
