Leopards is a non-fiction book about Leopards. Leopards live in Africa's grasslands and forest. They're able to stay cool hanging out in the shade. They hunt for antelope, birds and small mammals. Leopards are very strong and use their legs to climb tall trees.

After getting into a fight with her roommate and abandoning her at a party, Charlie Jordan has become known on campus as "the girl who let her roommate get murdered." Though few will come out with their blame towards Charlie, the same can't be said for her roommate's family. You see, Charlie was at the party her roommate was last seen at, and she's pretty sure she saw the man who killed her. Unfortunately for Charlie, she has a tendency to get lost in her thoughts and hallucinate, so she's not sure what the man actually looked like - just what the figment of her imagination looked like, and he was something out of a Hollywood movie. Unable to deal with the guilt of being useless in the investigation, Charlie decides to use the local ride board to hitch a ride off campus and go home. Cue Josh Baxter, who just so happened to be at the board at the exact same time, and who is going in the same exact direction as Charlie needs to go. It seems like a perfect match! Unfortunately for Charlie, the further along the ride she goes, the more certain she is that the man she's with is not actually Josh Baxter. And he's probably not actually going to where she needs to go. And he seems to know things about her roommate's murder that he shouldn't know, things that were never released to the public. Stuck in the car with him for the rest of the night, Charlie has to do whatever it will take to survive. This is a great quick read, but there's nothing really spectacular about it. The main character getting "movies in her mind" was kind of weird and didn't really seem necessary to the plot at all. I really loved the idea of this book, but the execution of it wasn't there. It's definition something I couldn't put down, but it's not something I'd be likely to remember in a year.

Anne and Marco have a baby! Their babysitter cancels on them, but they still attend a dinner party at the house next door, with the baby monitor in tow! The baby is taken! Who is responsible and why? The mystery unravels and some things are hard to come to grips with. It was an okay book. I would try this author again.

Excellent!

This book is beautifully written. Inspired by a real life phone booth in Japan. It is a story of love and hope after devastating loss and grief. A window into Japanese culture and the terrible loss of the 2011 tsunami. I was living in Texas at the time of the tsunami and on the night of a terrible tornado and hail storm in our town I thought of the people who had endured the tsunami in Japan. I was surprised at the calming effect and hope this story left me with.

A wonderful story of 3 young women who became unlikely friends during WWII. It's a long book, over 600 pages that was an easy read. I typically read at night before bed and caught my self many times during the day wondering what Oslo, Man & Beth would be up to tonight when I picked up this wonderful novel

This book is very eerie. It is a dystopian novel about memory. The citizens are on an island and things disappear mysteriously. The Memory Police take people away and the main characters work to try to preserve their things and memories against all odds.

This book is a non-fiction and its about a lion fighting a hyena clan (5 hyenas). It was a battle and it was time to fight and the hyena leader was pushed to the ground by the lion. One hyena tried to sneak up from behind and the lion spotted him and bit him. My favorite part was that the lion won!

I loved the book and everything in it. It was one of the best books I have read. There were very interesting plot twists, and I really enjoyed all of the new characters being introduced throughout the story. I cannot wait for the next book coming out in October.

This work of fiction is both disturbing and uplifting at the same time. It follows the story of a child whose father was a meth dealer and whose mother was an addict and the family she made for herself outside of the traditional definitions of family.
