  Cold Comfort Farm

  by Stella Gibbons

  • Rated 5 stars

  Absolute mirth from start to finish. I first saw the movie when I was in college and laughed my guts out - I loved the book just as much. Laugh out loud funny.

  Sharp Objects

  by Gillian Flynn

  • Rated 5 stars

  This was Gillian Flynn's debut book, but I happened to read it after Gone Girl and Dark Places and as much as I enjoyed and liked them both, I loved this even more. I'm glad I left it for last, as I might have been a tad disappointed later on had I started off with this!...

  Kudos to Jeannie Moon! "The Temporary Wife" is a wonderful start to a promising career as a romance writer. I really liked the characters, enjoyed the story and loved the HEA all wrapped up ending. Thank you JM for not leaving us with a cliff hanger!! The ending was definitely what pushed me to rating her story 5 stars since I couldn't post it 4.5....
