October book picks, yes PICKS

I have chosen two books this month. Two vastly different books.

Early Morning Riser is a general woman's fiction book. We meet Jane who is living the life of a school teacher and everything is going great until her mother has a car accident and it completely changes Jane's life. Her life goes like most of us, she gets married, has children and it wouldn't be a good book without some drama. I won't spill the secrets of the book, I will just tell you that this book is a great book for fall break.

The second book won't be released until October 21, but it is worth checking out once it is released. Even though she was a child, Maria worked for the resistance. She gets caught and is thrown into Auschwitz. Anyone who has heard this name knows that it was one of the most dangerous places that a prisoner could enter. Maria's life is spared because a guard loves the game of chess and Maria is an excellent player. This is not a light and fluffy book like the one above....this is heavy and heartbreaking in spots, but these stories need to be told as some of the supporting characters were real-life people.

Enjoy.

I am thoroughly enjoying this series. I can feel a connection to the characters and I enjoy them. Looking forward to book #4! Oh and I am simply in love with Latte!
