Just cleared another ebook - Sleeping Beauties by Stephen King. Overall, I really enjoyed this book, and I absolutely loved some of the issues it raised. It took me awhile to get into the book, but thank goodness it doesn't read like a normal King novel (I have a really hard time with his writing style). Really thought-provoking material. Definitely worth reading! I received this book as a free giveaway in exchange for my honest review. 4 stars

Finished The Sisters Brothers ,looking forward to that movie which should be released soon.
Also read Bel Canto (a unique love story), The Sister Season (easy read and I cried lots), and Middlemarch (a difficult but ultimately rewarding novel). This book was my grandmother's copy, so happy to have completed it!

Just completed another ebook - The Queen of the Tearling by Erika Johansen. This was a really solid fantasy debut! The writing is clear and not repetitive. The characters are interesting and complex. And the story had a clear path with some lovely surprises. Definitely worth reading! 4.5 stars
