The One and Only Ivan

by K. A. Applegate
- Rated 5 stars
“Newbery Award winner. Excellent story. Ivan is a gorilla in a small mall zoo just off the freeway. He has a friend elephant and a dog there at the zoo. The book is dialogue from the animals about the human world they have been living in for years. Excellent writing.”

Rainshadow Road

by Lisa Kleypas

“Wonderful story. Lucy , a glass artist, is dumped by her long time lover. Turns out he prefers her sister (with who she has had issues her whole life). The jerk tells his friend Sam to get her to date him. Little did the jerk know that they had already met and the spark was there. This is such a great story”

The Stolen Bride

by Brenda Joyce
- Rated 4 stars
“Not my favorite. Dragged the first half of the book through all the introspection of Sean O'Neill's reasons for being unworthy of his love for Eleanor. Finally we get to the kidnapping of Eleanor by Sean (not really though because she forces him to take her). Second half of book filled with adventure but too little too late”
