Review by:Voracious
Comprehensive history of the many bridges originally built by private citizens as money making ventures to replace ferries. A lot of the original piers are still in use.

The Guest Cat

Review by: Lizzytish
This is a gentle, lyrical story. I feel there is more to it than just the cat. It’s about how moments come into our lives, and are fleeting like dewdrops. We cannot hold on to them, but we can treasure them. There is so much to this little book that can touch your heart. I loved the comparison of life to a river. I loved Chibi!

2nd book by this author - plot was good but for an FBI plot woefully ignorant about use of firearms. As with other book a little schmaltzy with kumbaya ending.

A great YA murder mystery! The only thing I disliked was reading the last page only to discover this is the first in a trilogy! Stupid cliffhangers...

I enjoyed this 2nd book in this Rose Gardner series spin off. Some loose ends are tied up while new story lines are being developed. The story focuses on the grey area that many of us find ourselves in especially when dealing with family.

This is the latest book in this post-apocalyptic dragon series. It has a twist at the end that appears to be taking the series in a new direction. Is it a true new direction or just a trap?

Review by: RR
Personally one of my favorite series. I really enjoy how Paige took the classic The Wizard of Oz and turned it into a darker, modern day version. All though I’ve read this series multiple times, I do not recommend to all people due to some of the graphic and morbid scenes.

This is Book Two (of four) of the Neapolitan Novels. A follow up to My Brilliant Friend, it continues the story of two friends Lila and Lenu and their life in Naples, Italy. It is honest, insightful and so beautifully written. I could not put it down. Can't wait to read Book Three!
