Sixteen Is Sizzling!

Sizzling Sixteen by Janet Evanovich

My rating: 4 of 5 stars


Another good one from the Plum Series! Fans will not be disappointed with this Sizzling Sixteen! Uncle Pip has gone to the great beyond & left Stephanie a "lucky" bottle. Uncle Pip failed to mention however, if the bottle brought good luck or bad! Vinne has gotten himself & the bonds company into a bit of hot water & at the same time has disappeared. Will the bonds office have to close for good? Will Stephanie, Connie & Lula find him in time? You'll have to read the book to find out! Full of laughs, twists & turns I highly recommend this latest addition to the Plum Series!

My rating: 5 of 5 stars
I received this book from the Read It Forward book giveaway & I'm so glad I entered!

The California Roll was a romping good read! Hang out with Radar the super witty con artist & the other cast of characters that will be sure to keep you entertained! But wait, there's more! There's so much conning going on, this book is like a roller coaster ride! A twist here, a turn there, another twist here! You won't want to put it down! I thoroughly enjoyed reading this & would definitely love read more from Vorhaus! This is a read that will keep you entertained & laughing til the end!

The Water Is Wide by Pat Conroy

The Water is Wide by Pat Conroy


My rating: 5 of 5 stars
I loved this book! It was the first book I read of Conroy's & I can't wait to get my hands on another one (along with the movie that is based on this book). I thought it was well written & very entertaining! It was both funny & sad. I found myself laughing one minute & heart broken the next. Being based on Conroy's true life it was a very interesting look into the Carolina Low Country in the late 60's & early 70's. I recommend this book to anyone who enjoys books giving insight to history, teaching or southern settings.

I came across this on another blog.

3. Find the fifth sentence.
4. Post the next three sentences.

Here's mine: I'm reading A Prayer For Owen Meany By John Irving.

The rain was pelting down as they tried to put the luggage in the car; Uncle Alfred, in the role of their valet, was soaking wet-and since Simon and Noah had hoarded all the confetti for themselves, they were the only throwers. They threw most of it on their father, on Uncle Alfred, because he was so wet that the confetti stuck to him, instantly turning him into a clown.People were cheering from the windows of 80 Front Street, but my grandmother was frowning.

I only have a few pages left to read of this book. It has been a great read! If you are a fan of Irving & havent read it, I suggest picking it up!
