I went on a Norwegian Cruise so I read about a Norwegian Cruise. Good idea? Probably, but I didn’t love the book. Don’t get me wrong….it was twisty and mysterious but not what I was in the mood for I suppose.
My friend Leigh got me into Bridgerton on Netflix.… Read More »

I pretty much always say “The book is better than the movie”. Now I have an exception. I saw a trailer for the new Prime Movie starring Anne Hathaway but it hadn’t dropped yet so I decided to read the book. I was intrigued with the idea of the story but was disappointed with the ending, thought there was an overabundance of detailed steaminess, and just couldn’t wrap my brain around the age difference of the main characters with the pre-teen daughter’s storyline.… Read More »

It’s been over 10 years since I read Cutting for Stone by Abraham Verghese. I remember thinking I may never (ever) read a book that good ever again. I’ve been waiting more than 13 years for him to write another book! After reading an article about his new book, The Covenant of Water, I could not download it to my Kindle fast enough. … Read More »
