Here is an all-time favorite author of mine. I think I have all of her books. I fly through them and just love them. And this one did not disappoint me! It was a real "who done it" and twisted all around! Just a great over all book. I started reading her books years ago when my mother-in-law handed me one after she'd read it. And I've been hooked ever since. They are all suspense books. But she does have a couple different series of books that she writes. I think the Beaumont ones are my favorite. They are all based in Seattle, and I think they piqued my interest as my sister-in-law was living there at the time. And actually the Brady series are all about Joanna Brady, Cochise County Sheriff in Arizona - my Aunt Kitty should be reading them or maybe they are a little to close to home (or maybe she already has?).....I've read a couple that were pretty graphic and a little scary. But all in all I just enjoy her books - they are comfortable to me....

Oooh! This was a great book. I'm glad my kids are much younger. It should have a warning label for parents with kids in high school. Tough storyline, but so well written. An emotionally charged book. Once again you get the in depth on each person in the story. I had hoped throughout the book that the families would overcome there anguish and restore the bond they once had. There is so much more to this story than the "love story" the cover quotes. There is just something about her writing that makes you feel like you are a part of it all. I can still see the visual I had while reading this book as if I were a neighbor and living my life with them (and I finished this book on the last day of July and I can still see it all so clearly).

I think this blog is becoming a bit of an oxymoron for me. I want to talk about the books I've read - yet if I say to much would anyone really want to read them. I think that's what started it for me is I wanted someone else to read it too and then talk to me about it. Is that possible? I guess I need to form a Book Club, in my spare time of course.

As you can see from the cover "Wickedly Funny" was the review from People magazine.....Maybe I should avoid books with that review. This book was alright - just not worth writing home about!

The storyline was again not a great topic. Do I really want to read about someones reasons for having an affair with 3 different men for a newspaper article she's doing....And it was another "British" book, they are pretty foul mouthed - I wonder if that's the norm. So decide for yourself and let me know what you think!
