This was fantastic. I couldn't put it down, and read the entire thing throughout two reading sessions in one day, because sleep was not an option until I had answers. It's like the romantic comedy version of The Invisible Life of Addie LaRue. August has just moved to New York to try and get lost in the city. She's been alone almost her entire life, as her uncle went missing before she was born and her mother has been dedicated to finding out what happened to him ever since. August learned to speak so she could ask questions, and learned to read so she could help sort through files. She was practically raised to be a detective, but she's done with that now. Now, she's going to finish college and figure out what she wants to do with the rest of her life. At least, that was the plan, before she a wreck of a first day that is ultimately salvaged by meeting a girl named Jane on the subway. Jane is quickly all encompassing - she has a way of being able to charm anyone - and before August knows what's happening she's meeting up with Jane on her commute every day. But no matter how many times August asks Jane to meet up with her outside of the subway, it just doesn't seem to happen. Because Jane can't ever leave the subway. Originally from the 70s, Jane has been stuck riding the same line for fifty years, with no idea what's going on. August makes it her new mission to find a way to free Jane - even if that means they can't be together anymore. I loved discovering what happened to Jane, and the highly supportive atmosphere August has found herself in. This is such a cute, up-lifting book.

Well in depth, lots of details and action, ends on a cliffhanger to start the next book. A very good read.

I liked this book at first. Lori Gottlieb has an interesting background and she writes well about the patients she treats and her own sessions in therapy. But this book was way too long - the short chapters jump around among these different stories and after a while I lost interest. Also, since Gottlieb combined and changed many parts of her patients' stories in order to protect their privacy, it was easy to get distracted wondering what was real and what was fiction.

Perfect Summer Read! The setting of the book is Belle Isle, North Carolina. Riley Griggs is looking forward to a relaxing summer on the Isle. A place she has been going to all her life. Just when she gets to the Isle she finds out her house has been foreclosed on and her life unravels from there. She finds out her husband is dead and has been murdered. Then she realizes what kind of man he really was. He has destroyed her entire family. How will she recover, read it and find out!!

I would highly recommend this book. I enjoy stories about court trials - true or fictional, so this book was perfect for me. I like that we also got background about the author following the trial and how her experiences clouded how she viewed the case being heard.

All of the bikes are really cool. My favorite is the Kawasaki Ninja ZX-12R because I am wondering if ninjas use this bike and it is the "king of all sports bikes."

This is my first read by Mary Kubica, but not my last. This one one of my favorite books this summer. It had twists and turns and unexpected things happen. It was not a predictable book and I appreciated that. People are missing, how and why this happens in this small neighborhood. The author keeps you guessing and the ending was pretty good! I didn't see it coming.

I had been told that this wasn't a great book but I persevered and actually rather enjoyed it. The story is of a Tuberculosis Sanitorium which has been closed for some time and re-opened as a luxury resort hotel. There are some pretty grisly murders but the author does not dwell on the that but rather on building suspense as the characters find themselves trapped in the hotel with the murderer due to some severe weather and avalanches. The story of the 'detective' who solves the murders is also running parallel to the main story and it makes for many surprising twists and turns. I would recommend it for an interesting read.

Book Two in the Country Store Mystery Series. The story just continues but this time Robbie Jordan finds Erica dead on the floor of the store. She didn't hear anything and now she is scared. Who wanted to kill Erica and why? Robbie of course decides to help the police find the killer, while putting herself in danger. Quick, easy and fun read. I will continue to read the rest of the series.

This is a very slow-paced book about a sibling relationship. I do not feel like the synopsis did this book justice as I was expecting something different. The plot was lacking substance for me in general. Overall, it was an okay book that I wouldn't re-read.
