Book Review: Amazing Grace Adams by Fran Littlewood

September 30, 2023 · Leave a Comment

  If you’ve ever seen the movie “Falling Down” with Michael Douglas, you’ll get a feel for this book which describes the absolute worst and longest day that a person could possibly experience. There are actually two covers for this book – I am using this one which I think accurately reflects Grace’s personality. This… Keep Reading

Audiobook Review: The Heaven & Earth Grocery Store by James McBride

September 25, 2023

  Loved the audiobook of The Heaven and Earth Grocery Store! I want to compliment the narrator Dominic Hoffman who conquered the dialects of both the African-American characters and the immigrant Jewish characters. The book begins with the discovery of both a skeleton and a mezuzah in a well, and then flashes back to the… Keep Reading

Book Review: Little Monsters by Adrienne Brodeur

September 17, 2023

  I’m not ready to say farewell to summer! (Although it is starting to feel a tiny bit like Fall here in south Florida) 😏 A book that had been on my summer TBR is the dramatic yet poignant LITTLE MONSTERS by the brilliant Adrienne Brodeur. I had loved her memoir Wild Game and her… Keep Reading

Book Review: My Name is Iris by Brando Skyhorse

September 9, 2023

  WHY ISN’T EVERYONE TALKING ABOUT THIS BOOK?! Set in an all-too-real dystopian future in an unnamed border state, this absolutely chilling book explores the dark side of America and the horrific effects of racist immigration policies. Chilling because so many of the terrible events in this fictional book are very real. Our main character… Keep Reading

Audiobook Review: Tom Lake by Ann Patchett

September 5, 2023

I can’t think of an audiobook I’ve enjoyed more than Tom Lake, narrated by the incomparable Meryl Streep. ⁣ This was also my first book by the brilliant Ann Patchett and it is a quintessentially summer read. I was enraptured by the story of Lara, a small-town New England girl who once had a promising… Keep Reading

Shark Heart: A Love Story by Emily Habeck

August 15, 2023

  This book is fundamentally about a man named Lewis who has a condition that causes him to change into a shark. It is a magical, fantastical, funny and emotional novel that has one of the most original plots I’ve ever read. ⁣ The sorry is divided into three parts, each telling the story of… Keep Reading

Talking at Night by Claire Daverley

July 19, 2023

  TALKING AT NIGHT is one of the most beautiful and heart rendering books I’ve read in a long time. It’s a tale of first love but with a twist. It’s a coming of age story but so much more. If this is Claire Daverley’s debut novel, she has a long and brilliant career ahead…. Keep Reading

No Two Persons by Erica Bauermeister

July 6, 2023

  What a beautiful story!⁣ ⁣ This quietly emotional book is told in several vignettes, all illustrating the effects that a book called “Theo” has on different readers. ⁣ ⁣ The sorry follows a different person in each chapter. The only common thread is the experience that each person has with the same book, which… Keep Reading

Yellowface by R.F. Kuang

June 5, 2023

  You don’t have to be a “book person” to love this thought-provoking and biting story about a plagiarist. But if you pore over 1-star Goodreads ratings, ever wondered what a “nice deal” meant in Publishers’ Weekly, or know what tip-in sheets are, you might obsess over this book like me! June Hayward is a… Keep Reading

THE GUEST by EMMA CLINE

May 28, 2023

This spare, elegantly written novel is both a thriller and a brilliant feminist commentary on the lives of sex workers. Alex is a twenty-two year old woman who has found herself in the Hamptons with no money and no prospects. It’s fascinating that neither the Hamptons or the words sex worker are ever actually used… Keep Reading
