About Me

My photo
I'm a reader who enjoys posting comments and recommendations about the books I read. You will not find a synopsis with my recommendations because you can just click on the book title for a link to www.goodreads.com for a synopsis and reviews by other readers. I prefer the 3 Reason format: the reason I chose to read it; the reason I liked (or disliked) the book; and the reason I recommend it.

Catch A Falling Star (Second Chances #3)

Catch a Falling Star (Second Chances #3)Catch a Falling Star by Merry Farmer
My rating: 3 of 5 stars

This is the third novel in the Second Chances series, and it was available from the Hoopla app from my local library.

I enjoy the story Farmer tells about the relationship between Jo and Ben. I was rooting for them to work it out even when I thought she should have kicked him to the curb.

Contemporary romances are too graphic for me to recommend them to my friends.

Whiskey Rebellion: Addison Holmes Mysteries #1

Whiskey Rebellion (An Addison Holmes Mystery, #1)Whiskey Rebellion by Liliana Hart
My rating: 2 of 5 stars

This ebook has been in My Digital Library since October 16, 2015, and I am currently reading through My Digital Library in something of a chronological order.

Once upon a time I could not wait for the next Stephanie Plum mystery to be released, and I got tired of the basic plot and snappy conversations. This ebook is written as a similar genre, and I did not like it. If you like that genre, you may like it more than I did.

My rating: 4 of 5 stars

I enjoyed this novel too. There were some scenes that made this prude blush, but the story and characters were so interesting I kept reading.
I recommend this book too.

A Simple Guide to Creating a Photo Estate

A Simple Guide to Creating a Photo EstateA Simple Guide to Creating a Photo Estate by Mollie M Bartelt
My rating: 3 of 5 stars

Mollie m. Bartlett is the co-founder of Pixologie, Inc.

This is a guide to help those of us who want to make a digital archive of our photos. I have been working on scanning the photos from the first 50 years of my life, and I had more than 138 albums in a chronological order to scan when I began this process.

I think I am ready to start using a high-speed scanner at my local library to help me speed up this process.

The Paris AssignmentThe Paris Assignment by Rhys Bowen
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

This Kindle book was in my Kindle library since December 2024.

The onset of WWII in France is a dramatic setting, and Bowen keeps us interested in what our protagonist will do next.

I recommend the book.
