I like it because it shows how smart we are.

I love this book

I’m not a fan of books or movies where you get inside the killer’s head. This book was a lot like that, only you were inside a woman going through a mid-life crisis and not handling it well at all. For this reason, I kept wanting the book to finally be over. But then the ending came, and somehow it made the whole book better. So, I’m not really sure how I feel about the book overall.

Good

It should be noted somewhere that this book is religious and isn't a good idea for all audiences. The parts without God were good, but I don't want my child thinking about these things before she can understand them.

This is the latest entry in a stellar historical fiction/mystery series. It can be enjoyed as a stand alone, but I envy the reader who can read the series from the beginning for the first time. The first title is Murder on Astor Place. The series follows the evolving relationship of Sarah, daughter of a wealthy family, making her own way as a midwife, and Frank Malloy, an honest police officer in the notoriously corrupt Gilded Age NY police department.

Greatest

Kian liked when the duck became a beautiful swan

It was sweet

I recently stumbled upon the Riot Grrrl history, and listening to Hannah’s memoir was so interesting. While she is best known as the “leader” of the Riot Grrrl movement, this book tells her ENTIRE story. I love when the author reads their own book, and the way she reads it makes it feel more like she’s talking to you than reading the book.
