  Ready Player One

  by Ernest Cline

  • Rated 4 stars

  Surprisingly fun and engrossing. Relies heavily on pop culture references so if you weren't a kid growing up on 80's pop culture, most of the fun of the story will be lost on you. I admit there were a few references to things I did not recognize and I was a little bored during those parts....

  The Dead and Buried

  by Kim Harrington

  • Rated 0 stars

  It was one of the Best books I've ever read. I really liked How it's kind of a horror book yet a love story at the same time. Jade (the main character) has a really strong personality and her actions made the book really interesting. I recommend this book for people that like horror-ish stories.

  I think the cover of this book first attracted my attention to it while browsing in my local bookstore. It stuck out from the crowd so I read the blurb and took it home with me (after paying for it, of course). It's a kind of medieval road movie with a bit of murder and mystery thrown in. Actually, there is quite a lot of murder and mystery in there but it doesn't really start until the second half of the book.

  The Other Typist

  by Suzanne Rindell

  • Rated 4 stars

  Book Concierge wrote:
  Rose Baker is a quiet and efficient typist in a police precinct in 1923 New York City. Having been raised in an orphanage she understands how to blend into the woodwork, proving her worth by her skills and hard work, and never taking liberties when she transcribes criminals’ confessions. An applicant for a vacancy is clearly very different from the mousy Rose. Odalie is chic and confident, and quickly draws the precinct sergeant, detective and beat cops under her spell. Rose is in turns...
