Great if you love statistics. Not so great if you want to read a biography of Don Mattingly.

I enjoyed this quite a bit. I like his style of writing. A little hint of Stephen King but more philosophical as opposed to in-your-face gore.

Not altogether terrible but too corny and predictable. I cried the ugly cry at the end, though.

North Jersey's answer to Stephanie Plum. Lois Winston even mentions Stephanie and Janet Evanovich a couple of times in the book. But it's not quite as funny, and seems almost mean-spirited. Not terrible, but too busy and too many bad things happen for it to be believable. I will likely read the next one in the series, though.

Sometimes I just need a good steamy Jackie Collins novel in which to escape.

This started out with a lot of promise, but got slow. Birdie just seems to live life as if she's part of a movie, and while I "get it" it just wasn't that interesting to me. I wanted the author to flesh her out more than she did.

Fun, quick read. Reminded me of chat rooms back in the early days of meeting people on the internet.

The jacket made this sound completely different - more of a comedy but this was some pretty serious stuff. None of the characters was likeable and it just kind of ended.

Fun mystery! I have the August one and October to read; I'm looking for the May-July ones in the series. I like the main character; she's not as zany as Stephanie Plum but that's fine.

Creepy zombie apocalypse tale. I love his writing - so fluid. It really grabbed me from the beginning.
