FINISHED SINCE THE LAST UPDATE:
Book Cover Image: The Dying of the Light by Robert Goolrick
" data-orig-size="268,400" sizes="(max-width: 201px) 100vw, 201px" aperture="aperture" />Book Cover Image: The Loneliest Girl in the Universe by Lauren James
" data-orig-size="264,400" sizes="(max-width: 198px) 100vw, 198px" aperture="aperture" />I do love Robert Goolrick’s writing style and his ability to create pictures with words. His newest novel may not be the best example of his storytelling ability, I was sufficiently charmed by his characters and the setting to thoroughly enjoy it.
Lauren James’ latest novel is quite literally unputdownable. I started it late Tuesday night, read a little at lunch on Wednesday, settled into it after work on Wednesday and did not get up until I was done. Intense, emotional, scary – it was a fun read that kept me on the edge of my seat the entire time.
