1. Your Big Break- Johanna Edwards- 3.5 out of 5. Decent. Funny. Set in Boston, which is a plus for me. A story about a girl who works for a company that specializes in break-ups.
2. The Make-Up Girl- Andrea Semple- 1.5 out of 5. Deadful. Depressing.
3. Lucky Girl- Fiona Gibson- 3 out of 5. An unwanted woman becomes wanted. Grows out from under her larger-than-life Father's Ego. Brit-Chick-Lit.
4. Babyface- Fiona Gibson- Unrateable. Could not finish. Just awful. Thank goodness it was a library book, and not something I spent money on.
5. The Secret of Everything- Barbara O'Neal- 4 out of 5. An amazing book. An injured tour guide is trying to figure out her own history by going back to the town where she grew up. An over-all good read. Some of the book is written from other points of view, which is a little distracting.
6. Hot Wheels and High Heels- Jane Graves- 3 out of 5. A fluffy read, modern romance. A trophy ex-wife learns how to be self-sufficient.
7. Tall Tales and Wedding Veils- Jane Graves- 3 out of 5. Another fluffy modern romance. Pretty much the movie "What Happens in Vegas" but with better dialog.
8 & 9. She's in a Better Place & Doesn't She Look Natural?- Angela Hunt- 3.5 out of 5. A divorced woman with two boys inherits a funeral home from a long-lost uncle. Christian Lit, but not as preachy or vapid as most. Actually a very good story.
10. The Thing About Jane Spring- Sharon Krum 3.5 out of 5. A woman who was raised by a military father decides to act like Doris Day. Cheesy premise, decent read.
11. M is for Magic- Neil Gaiman- 4 out of 5. Short stories by Gaiman. Categorized as Young Adult. Easy read, not a kid book for sure.
12. The Graveyard Book0 Neil Gaiman- 3 out of 5. A boy who's family is killed is taken in by the beings who reside in a graveyard. He spends his childhood as one of them, but as he grows up, he needs to take his place amongst the living. Young Adult novel.
