  • Five Years in Hawaii: A True Saga of International Adventure and the U.S. Naval Intelligence Community
    • Rated 3 stars

    I found this novel at time disturbing yet I was captivated by Justin's experiences from boot camp and through his military career. I know many of the things he had to go through I would not have lasted. I commend him for sharing his challenges and experiences during that time. I usually don't read novels relating to the military but I am glad I read this one

    All I can say is OMG!!! This was a great read . It brings awareness to how life can be changed within the twinkle of an eye when people don't think of the consequences of their actions.

    DUBIOUS

    by Tina Brooks McKinney
    • Rated 3 stars

    This book was very different from the way Tina usually writes. I really didn't enjoy this one as much because the subject matter was just too over the top for me. Well written, but the bizzar behavior of one of the main characters was a bit much for me.

  • The House on Monroe Street

    The House on Monroe Street

    by Jacquie Bamberg Moore
    • Rated 5 stars

    Moore is a gifted story teller. A creatively written story that takes you through the lives of a family torn apart by neglect, alcoholism and most of all sexual abuse. Through up's and down's and finally the begining of a healing process for all involved once the taboo subject is brought to light.
