The Wedding Date
By Jasmine Guillory
This was SUCH an easy read. I literally read it in 3 days. It was fun, flirty, and although the ending was predictable, I loved it! I couldn't put it down! (Romance)

The Girl You Left Behind
By Jojo Moyes
This wasn’t my favorite Jojo Moyes novel. I started out dreading yet another German soldier dominates an occupied woman, then I dreaded what looked to be a predictable happily-happily-ever-after. The one twist that made it interesting was the painting that was the center around which the story revolved. It wasn’t awful by any means, but it wasn’t as creative as other stories by her that I have read. (Romance)

Hija de la fortuna/Daughter of Fortune
By Isabel Allende
A great character who challenges all kind of prejudices and impositions of her time, to find herself. (Romance, Historical Fiction)
~Nancy E.
Surrender The Pink
By Carrie Fisher
Ms. Fisher is my personal hero and I love her writing. This book didn't let me down. Witty and funny. I heard her voice in every line Dinah spoke. And with the knowledge that this book was written with her relationship with Paul Simon in mind, it becomes all that more poignant. My only complaint was that much of the dialog, both spoken and internal was so abstract and witty it was hard to keep up. The end was bitter sweet, but so was the life of our dear Carrie Fisher.
