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.

Making Space, Clutter Free

I borrowed this book from my local library.  

I agree with her assumption of seven Clutter Blocks that people may have as decluttering occurs.  In the Clutter Block #3 or The Stuff I'm Avoiding, she did have a phrase, "...confront the autopsy of his failure" which I noted.  

I often found the phrasing and style of her writing to be off-putting, and that is why I rated this book 3 stars.

Deeper Than The Dead

This has been in my Kindle library since July 1, 2024.  
I was annoyed by all the ruminating thoughts about the need to keep secrets to protect others and yourself.  
I rate it 3 stars.

The Secret

 

I borrowed this book from my local library.  

This is the type of Reacher book I enjoy because it is more about the detective work as this group of people from different agencies or services try to protect individuals who formerly worked together on a project in India.  
  The ending did drag on a bit too long.  

I rated it 5 stars.

Tennessee Waltz

This ebook has been in My Digital Library since Aug 21, 2015.  
I took a star away because I had to roll my eyes at how presumptuous the heroine could be even after others had told her that this culture preferred not to accept charity and had explained the difference in their culture. 
I rated it two stars.

Daughter of Fire

I just could not emotionally connect with the characters in this historical fiction, and that made reading this book feel more like a chore.
