Summer Reading Celebration

I liked it. Quick, interesting, cute. I like that she didn't have this affair. I was anticipating it but I like that they just like each other

Heart of Darkness was a fantastic read. It told of a thrilling adventure and depicted the main character, Marlow, as brave, but not faultless. The story had many ups and downs, I never knew what was going to happen next!

Isla loves how this book is full of photographs that match up to each different section, so she can learn simple ballet while going through the book.

Pleasant read of historical fiction set in Ireland in the 1920's during the Irish war for independence from England. The story involves the daughter of the English overseer who has been sent to the area to keep things in check. In an unprecedented move, her father allies her to apprentice at an Irish owned jewelry shop. The owners son is dead st against it because of who she is. While the story feels predictable, the history is well researched. The writing lacks the depth of best sellers, but it was a pleasant enough read.

This one definitely kept you guessing until the very end.

Well written historical novel that portrayals what it might have been like for a woman in the medical profession in England in the 1800's.

The fascinating backstory of the creation of Disneyland in sleepy Anaheim California in the 1950’s and the influence it had on amusement parks and entertainment the world over. If you are a Disney fan this is a must read!

Really had me guessing until the very end. I must admit, there was quite a twist I never saw coming.

Oh that was good. There were times I was like....okay so where is this going now, only for the story to get more complicated. My only complaint is that the fmc was very smart and clever and competent in the beginning and then she kind of took a backseat...kind of unfortunate. But I did really enjoy it, and hope at least one of the girlies has a lesbian love story ?

Great story about a gay romance and international intrigue.
