March book pick

 I have been waiting to share this book with you for a little while now.  I can finally say that you will be able to read this on March 8!! Woo hoo!!  I admit I have never read "Little Women", but supposedly this book is a retelling of that book by Louisa May Alcott in a more modern sense.  All the events take place during World War II and each one of the sisters does something to assist in the war effort.  Some girls will be on the front line, while others are holding down the fort. There is romance, grief, and a little plot twist.  

I am excited to hear your take on this and see how it compares to the real "Little Women", please drop me a line and let me know.  

Don't you just love the cover?  Enjoy!!!!

February audiobook book pick

I wanted to choose an audiobook for you that was fun, quick, something that would make you laugh or smile. This one is perfect for a car ride, cleaning the house, or a good walk.

"Me and Patsy" is all about Loretta Lynn and her good pal, Patsy Cline.  You can tell by the title that there was nothing boring about these two girls when they got together.  If they weren't causing a scene in a bar, they were trying on makeup or talking about sex.  

   I have not read Coal Miner's Daughter in a long time, so I can't remember, but this book is very candid and honest.  Loretta doesn't leave anything (and I mean anything) out.  I am not a fan of country music, and probably can't name any Loretta song other than the ones she mentioned in the book, but I found this book fun.  The whole time I was reading it I kept thinking about how my friends would LOVE this one!  I will tell you that I read the book and it was a very quick read, and then I followed it up with the audiobook.  I am encouraging you to try the audio version as well.  The narrator tries to sound like Loretta, her accent is perfect for this book!!!  

I hope you enjoy this one!  Let me know what you think.  

Review: Punch, Pastries, and Poison

Punch, Pastries, and Poison by Harper Lin
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

I love a Harper Lin. Fran plans a joint birthday party for Matt and herself and invites the entire town.....be careful of who you invite to your birthday party, even if your town is full of people you say are your friends.
