there are so many things that I like about this book: the characters, the friendships.  It is written in prose, which I alway enjoy, but the author has added a second dimension to it.  There is an explanation in the back of the book about how to read.  the kidnapping is written from the pov of the kidnapped child,Wren,  but the second half of the book is written from her pov and the child of the kidnapper, Darra. Plus each "long" line of prose from Darra's pov has additinal meaning if you read it correctly-so fun.

All These Things I've Done

All These Things I've Done by Gabrielle Zevin

My rating: 4 of 5 stars


I really enjoyed this book. It is hard to imagine chocolate being something that is illegal, but store your favorite chocolate in the closet because by the end of the twenty first century is a street drug. Only Grandma remembers a time when chocolate was ooey gooey fun and not mafia business. Now her grand daughter has to find out who poisoned the chocolate, and stop herself from falling in love with the DA's charming son while saving her brother from the clutches of mafia wannabes. It's all good fun.

Queen of the Falls by Chris Van Allsburg

My rating: 5 of 5 stars


I loved it and Adam loved it. He was very concerned that the women was going to die on her trip over the Falls, but she lived. The illustrations are wonderful and add to the text. This is one brave women at 60 something to go over the Falls in a barrel with pillows stuffed around her for protection. The year is 1901 and this charm school teacher is out of money and a job. Going over Niagara would not have been my way of earning my retirement, but then I don't even ride roller coasters!

Something Blue-Emily Giffin

Something Blue by Emily Giffin

My rating: 5 of 5 stars


This is my second time listening to this one. Good thing I have a terrible memeory because it felt like the first. I loved it all over again. Something to make me happy on yucky days in the car.
