The English Girl: A Novel
By Daniel Silva The English Girl is the latest book from one of my favorite authors, Daniel Silva. I am a fan of both the author and the main character in his books Gabriel Allon. This series is awesome and keeps on improving as it progresses. Secretly, I sometimes wish that this fictional character, was actually someone living in our present world. You do not need to read his earlier books, in order to enjoy this one. He has carefully provided information for new readers, without annoying those of us who are already die hard fans. It takes a […]
Inferno

I think I should forewarn you though that this book is a little darker than the others. Inferno begins […]
The Burgess Boys: A Novel
By Elizabeth Strout If you have read author Elizabeth Strout’s book that won her a Pulitzer Prize titled ‘Olive Kitteridge’ you may like me have been a little anxious to find out what her next book would be like.

Elizabeth clearly was given the gift of story telling, her prose is just beautiful and she digs deep down into the human […]
Six Years
By Harlan Coben Six Years is an amazing mystery thriller the latest offering from author Harlan Coben. It has so many different layers to it, as a long time fan, I thoroughly enjoyed this novel. I have been a fan of his since his Bolitar series and had no problems moving onto his stand alone books, such as this one. In true Harlan Coben fashion, he grabs you the reader right from the first pages of the book. He takes you on a bumpy ride that has a lot of twist and turns, leaving you experiencing the emotions of the […]
