The Noel Diary

3/5


Was another easy fast read. I liked the main character and understand why his thoughts and feelings changed near the end of the story.

I did not like how even though part of the story takes place in 1986 with a diary of another character, the book makes you think it’s way back in the 50s or 60s with the thought process and religious views and actions. Especially when it involves young women. One character just go on my nerves with all the indecisiveness and lack of ability to stand up for herself.Was not a bad book. Had a nice message about forgiveness and grace.

In the Dark Dark Wood

I have been busy but was finally able to read today. What a disappointment. I was excited to find and read this book, had many good reviews. 

First of all it was pretty slow to being in with. Then there are things done at this hen do I disagree with had me less then thrilled. Our heroine doesn’t want to participate, but does anyways. Then when thing finally get moving, it’s pretty predictable. You have to wonder about this heroine, she just seems not so bright or able to stand up for herself. Then the ending, really ?? Has she learned nothing throughout this book ?? Not my favorite at all but wasn’t my worst either.

3/5

The Last Time I lied

3.5 stars rounded up.


The story was easy enough to read, and actually had me wondering what could she have possibly lied about that was so bad. When it’s revealed I didn’t it was all that bad, but at her age, it made some sense. The action after and the ‘secret’ was revealed, I think they could dine more with that.  Finding the spot and more revealing of secrets I liked. The ending, I think made the book. I enjoyed the read and  really liked the ending. Worth the read.
