Leaving Las Vegas

I had always heard that this was a classic so I wanted to read it. I knew the ending going in but I was still interested. I think it was well written, but a tad slow and monotonous, which may have been the point, but I'm not sure. It's a good quick read.

This was such a good fantasy romance! The slow burn was perfect, the gradual building of trust and friendship, which leads to love. The beginning was a bit slow, but it got really good at the end at its so worth it!
The Book Woman's Daughter

Just loved this sequel to The Book Woman of Troublesome Creek which I read way back in 2019. Also read her other book The Liars' Bench. It always amazes me how an author can take one story and add characters and plots the second time, sometimes more. Here we have Honey, the daughter, who is now alone because her parents are in jail because her mother is a "blue" and her father is "white", miscegenation laws being alive and well in Kentucky at the time. But an adult friend takes her in with her parents' permission. There are those who hate the blues like some whites hate blacks, with no reason of course. Something happens and Honey is once again alone and at the mercy of the law who want to put her away in a "reform" school. Our Honey is a trailblazer like her mother before her and takes us on her journey to being able to care for herself until she can be reunited with her family. Touching, uplifting to the utmost.

Loyalty

Another amazing book by Lisa Scottoline. It’s her second historical fiction book set in Sicily from 1810-1825 and shares how the mafia started in Sicily. But it’s more than that, it’s how people deal differently with adversity and their actions impact others. Lisa does a fabulous job of introducing a great cast of characters who all share an important role in this story and later how their stories connect to each other. You’ll fall for these characters and this story will stay with you long after it’s all done. I highly recommend this book.
No One Goes Alone

What a truly perfect ghost story…that turns out to me more than that. This book is only available as an audio book intentionally and I can see why. It is read with just the perfect tone to create an atmosphere that will immerse and draw you in. And the setting in the year 1957 when times and people were simpler than now just adds to the allure. I did not want to put this book down. Grab your mental campfire and dive in!
