Water for Elephants

by Sara Gruen

“Another of the best books I've recently read. The setting, plot and characters drew me in and kept my interest all the way through to the end. I'm looking for more of Gruen's books now.”

Heart in the Right Place

by Carolyn Jourdan
- Rated 5 stars
“This book touched me deeply. It was a surprise, since I picked it up at random, not thinking it would affect me deeply. Beautifully written and deeply touching in many parts. A perfect mix of humor, true-life situations and quirky characters, mixed with sadness and tenderness. I highly recommend this book to everyone. It's one of my favorite reads of the past year.”

The Camel Bookmobile

by Masha Hamilton
- Rated 0 stars
“Such a promishing book. I was disappointed in it...seemed to piddle out, or end in a way that was not precisely in line with what it seemed to promise..I'm not sure how, but that's the feeling I had. I enjoyed it until the end, but was totally angry with it at the end.”
