Home Front

by Kristin Hannah
- Rated 3 stars
“I usually really enjoy Hannah's books but this one was a little long winded. The subject matter was gut wrenching and I shed more than one tear. I certainly don't down play the emotions of veterans and PTSD is a very really condition, but the main character tended to get almost whinny at some points and that did not fit in with her over-all image. This book certainly made me respect our soldiers even more!”

Sweet Talk

by Julie Garwood
- Rated 4 stars
“I really enjoyed this book! Grayson and Olivia are a wonderful pair. One of the things I like is that this is a stand alone book, no catching up on a series:) I love Julie Garwood novels.”

No Longer A Gentleman

by Mary Jo Putney
- Rated 4 stars
“I was actually quite imopressed with book. It has a lot of substance and was almost more of a thriller/spy novel than a romance. My one complaint is that the end seemed a little rushed compared to the rest of the novel. Otherwise, this would have been a five star.”

Hard Eight

by Janet Evanovich
- Rated 4 stars
“Audio book: This series is really growing on me. At first they felt really crass but I think the humour is getting better and the relationships a little more complex and that is adding to the pleasure.”

Let Love Find You

by Johanna Lindsey
- Rated 3 stars
“I don't know if I have been in a reading rut and nothing has been grabbing my attention. I felt that this book was a tad on the boring side and skimmed a lot of the story in the middle. Towards the end I really enjoyed it and that is why I gave it 3* instead of two. The banter between Devin and Amanda was wonderful but the parts where she is looking for a spouse are drawn out and desperate sounding.”

Stray Bullets

by Robert Rotenberg
- Rated 5 stars
“I really love this series! The first book was amazing, the second so-so and this one was really good. As a bonus, the location is Toronto so all the landmarks are familiar :)”

The Last Boyfriend

by Nora Roberts
- Rated 3 stars
“I only rated this three stars because there does not seem to be that much of a story in it. I wish that Avery and her mom had more of a story line and Avery and Owen were a little boring. That being said I am really looking forward to the next book to see Hope's story and Lizzie's story complete.”
