Cross Roads by Fern Michaels

Ahhhh Number 18 in the Sisterhood series by Fern Michaels. Just hit the shelves and I had to have it. This is a great series of interesting problems and a group of tough gals that can really work their way to justice.

You don't have to read them in order ... .get yours today and I bet you'll be picking up others at the grocery store and online in no time.

Always an entertaining read.

Dune Road by Jane Green

This is the first book I've read by Jane Green. I'm not sure if it's consistant in style with the rest of her books ... it's a bit narrative ... BUT the story is so dog-gone good you have to keep reading.

I really enjoyed it. I plan to order another story of hers on my next Kindle order.
Happy reading.

The Help by Kathryn Stockett

Okay .. I have to admit that this one took me a while to read, but only because of the heavy use of dialect in the beginning of the book. Once I got through the first few chapters it moved along better.

I'm southern .. i don't need all those funny spellings for me to hear that twang ;)
Anyway -- good read. Pretty cover ... yes, I do pick them that way pretty often!

THE WEDDING GIRL by Madeline Wickham

Yes .. that one .. the one that writes the Sophie Kinsella books.
This book was passed to me by a colleague while I was in Charlotte a couple weeks ago. What a quirky, fun read.

A fun cast of characters and surprisingly, some pretty amazing didn't-see-that-coming twists.

A fast read -- enjoy it!

Knit, Purl, Die by Anne Canadeo

I picked this book after seeing agent Bob Mecoy at Thrillerfest in NYC. What a delightful read. I knew I was in for a good ride when I saw the jacket blurb by Jayne Ann Krentz ... she's one of my favs!

This story is a fun group of ladies and I felt like one of the gang by chapter two!

This is the second in a new series ... A BLACK SHEEP KNITTING MYSTERY. I didn't feel like I was reading out of sequence so don't be afraid to grab this one first if you see it. I'm going to grab the first one soon. It's titled While My Pretty One Knits.

Happy Reading :)

SLIM TO NONE :: by Jenny Gardiner

I just downloaded this hot off the presses read for my kindle.

Sounds like a topic I can sink my teeth into. Okay, bad joke, but it's about about a gal who is a top food critic until her expanding waistline makes staying incognito at restaurants impossible.
Her cover blown on Page Six of the New York Post, her editor has no choice
but to bench her—and suggest she use the time off to bench-press her way back to anonymity.

Abbie’s life has been built around her career, and therefore around celebrating food. Forced to drop the pounds if she wants her primo gig back,
Abbie must peel back the layers of her past and confront the fears that have led to her current life.

Here's the Amazon link for it:

Sherryl Woods :: Honeysuckle Summer

Virginia Writer Sherryl Woods writes wonderful stories of characters that I feel like I know -- and want to put their birthdays on my calendar :) Small town settings and big heart moments.
I love everything she's written.
