Tuesday's Book Review

"The Someday List" was an interesting book but not quite what I expected. I at least thought that Rachelle would come up with a list somewhat like the 'Bucket List' but it ended up being s0 simple and self reflecting it was a letdown. The list she came up with could be achieved in a few weeks - it was in essence a New Year's Resolution list. The books was well written and took place in Texas - always a plus with me (between the cities of Houston and Jubilant). Will I read the other books in the series? Probably not, there are too many other books on my list that are a priority right now (unless they too are a free download on my Kindle).

"Saving Sailor" by Renee Riva, was one of the sweetest books I have read in a long time. It is a Young Adult book about and Roman Catholic family living on a lake during the summer in Idaho. Their father is the Forest Ranger. A. J. the star of our story, (Angelina Juliana) is a 9/10 year old girl that is passionate, spunky and the middle child of 5. It is beautifully told story of compassion and family love. I highly recommend this book. It is a book I will probably read again and Rene Riva is an author I will definately look for.

"Speed Dating" was a free download on my Kindle. It was a fun, fast read and pure fluff. If you want something similar to reading a comic book when you were a kid, then this is your book.

"My Name is Russell Fink" was interesting but not gripping and really not worth the bother. It most definately was not my most favorite book I have ever read. It is about a guy that thinks he is a loser and therefore is one. The last 2 chapters were Okay but it is an long way to get to that point.
