March 2014 Books

I read 7 books in March:

1) Reversible Error - Robert K. Tanenbaum (paperback)
2) Desperate - Daniel Palmer (ARC)
3) The Chance - Robyn Carr (Kindle)
4) Evening Stars - Susan Mallery (Kindle)
5) The Good Sister - Wendy Corsi Staub (Kindle)
6) NYPD Red - James Patterson w/Marshall Karp (Kindle)
7) Meant To Be - Terri Osburn (Kindle)

Reversible Error was the first Tanenbaum book I've read, but it won't be the last. Margaret, a friend from work, loaned me the book. We are both bookaholics, and she's read most of his books. I quickly downloaded No Lesser Plea on my Kindle, but unfortunately I have a lot of books to read before I get to it.

Daniel Palmer's book was amazing. I really love the way he writes.  He always keeps me on the edge of my seat! I'm so glad I got to know about him from his father, the late Michael Palmer. I am now part of Daniel's street crew, and I received this ARC in return for an honest review.

Enjoyed Carr and Mallery's books, they are two of my "go-to" authors. Staub's book tells the story of social media and how young people today don't communicate face-to-face or by phone. It's all texting, Twitter or Facebook. And bullying is out of control.

I enjoyed Patterson's book too and his books are hit and miss these days.

Terri Osburn's book was my free Kindle book for the month (I have Amazon Prime) and I really liked it. Will probably be checking out more of her books.

First book in April is Explosive Eighteen by Janet Evanovich. Her Stephanie Plum novels are fun, quick reads. Some have been better than others, but I always have at least a couple of laugh-out-loud moments reading them.

REVIEW: The Lost Girls by Allison Brennan

THE LOST GIRLS
by ALLISON BRENNAN
St. Martin's Press
November 1, 2016
5 STARS

Love Brennan's Lucy Kincaid series!

Siobhan Walsh has been looking for two sisters who disappeared 2 years ago. She feels responsible, so when she gets a phone call from a Texas priest, who has found an abandoned newborn with a locket nearby that she'd given one of the girls; she goes to Texas in hopes of finding them. She calls in her FBI friends, including Lucy Kincaid, and the search is on. Meanwhile, Lucy's fiance, Sean, has an unexpected visit from a former girlfriend. Her husband, and the 12 year old son he never knew he had, have disappeared in Mexico. So it's time for the Rogan family to find out what's going on.

This is a suspenseful, hard-to-put-down book, so hang on for the ride! Be prepared for a human trafficking story that is hard to stomach, and more than likely, all too true in this day and age. Mexican cartels, murder and mayhem. This book has it all.

Entertainment Weekly "REVISITED"

(thanks for the REVISITED idea, Robyn!)

Okay, I posted last week a blog entry about Entertainment Weekly's Top 100 Movies of the last 25 years. Now I'm going to post their Top 10 TV Shows, and my Top 10 TV Shows...

ENTERTAINMENT WEEKLY'S TOP 10:
1. The Simpson's - don't like, never watch
2. The Sopranos - never watched
3. Seinfeld - don't like, not a Seinfeld fan
4. The X-Files - never watched
5. Sex and the City - never watched (do you see a pattern here?)
6. Survivor - UGH - I HATE ALMOST ALL REALITY SHOWS!
7. The Cosby Show - I would put this in my Top 20, but probably not my Top 10
8. Lost - never watched
9. Friends - HATED!
10. Buffy the Vampire Slayer - never watched

Obviously you can see my tastes are definitely not the same as the EW reviewer's.

Here's my Top 10:
1. Miami Vice - I still drool over Don Johnson
2. Golden Girls - consistently funny, and I love Sophia!
3. Scarecrow and Mrs. King - Bruce Boxleitner was one HOT dude!
4. CSI Miami - great cast! great st…
