If I want to write about myself I must end here, because I don't know how or what to say. But if you insist I like to go out and have fun specially dancing. Love to read a lot everything from Romance to Crime to drama. And my favorite writers are Julia Quinn, Nora Roberts, Dan Brown, Jane Austine, Clive Cussler and David Baldacci.

    • Rated 4 stars

    I read so many reviews before purchasing this book. Some, upraising Baldacci's work others were disappointed. Some were comparing it to Lee Child's Jack Reacher series. Yes there were similarities between the two like both characters were in the Army, David Baldacci's Character puller is still serving in CID but Jack reacher left the Army. They both have a brother one was in prison the other's dead. Have similar physical features but I liked David Baldacci's book better. The chapters were more interesting and hard to put down.

  • Playing the Game
    • Rated 2 stars

    I thought it would be an interesting book but I was proven wrong. First, the book was rather long and contained so many boring unnecessary details. Second, the conversations held between the characters were somewhat uninteresting and contained descriptions about their past that it was rather incomplete. Like what happened to Annette"s, the lead character's Cousin Alison who helped them escape their past life, and how could they lose touch with her if she saved their life.

  • Killing Lincoln
    • Rated 3 stars

    This is my second non fiction book and I really enjoyed it a lot. It was just like a fiction thriller book as the other reviews were written. Two thumbs up. I've heard about Lincoln being a good president now I know some part of his life and I think he was a great president.

    I liked his way of writing. The history of Armenian people is accurate. And he was a true believer in the Armenian cause. But the chapters that he wrote about the irrigation where he explained the geographical positions of Armenia, I was little bit bored.

  • The Kitchen House
    • Rated 5 stars

    The kitchen House was so beautifully written. Takes place in late 1700, narrated by two women who are slaves in a plantation. Lavinia, white Irish girl, brought by the captain, owner of the plantation . The Other Belle, black woman who is the daughter of the captain. Lavinia tells the story in her point of view, tells the story of the slaves at that time, their struggles, their daily sufferings. and finding her place in a world of dark skin people. And belle tells the story as a slave girl who is half white and her struggle in leaving in a house whose owners (the captain's wife and son think her as the captains whore). Finally as the book comes to an end (you never want it to end) it happens as you wish it should.

    One of the best writers. He never disappoints you. It is a page turner.
    It's about a family who suspect that something is happening in their teenage boys life so they start to spy on him, that leads to many conflicts and on the other hand someone has killed a woman and dumped her body in an alley. You will find how this two stories come to life and meet at the end.
    The story teaches you that a family's bond is the strongest of all.

  • Tell No One
    • Rated 5 stars

    What a great read. I had so much fun. Thriller all the way. Tell No one is about Dr. Dave Beck, a doctor and a great character, who lost his wife eight years ago, murdered by KillRoy. His world turns upside down when he gets an email. He suspects that his wife is the one who is sending the emails. from then on he tries to uncover the truth about the murder and he becomes a target by the police and the bad guys.

  • Fallen
    • Rated 3 stars

    This time the story is about Faith's mother who is kidnapped. And GBI agents Will and their Boss Amanda will do the impossible to get her back. And the best part of all Will and Sara is the chemistry between them. Will is one of my favorite characters, I love reading his stories.
