Sunday Summary
Welcome to my Sunday Summary. A look back on my bookish adventures for the week.
December has been very busy for many of us. I am sure I am not the only one who found all the prepping, shopping, family gatherings, and socializing taxing my time, and having both of our vehicles in the shop this month did not help. Ah well, such is life sometimes. I hope you have had a wondrous holiday season, filled with good friends, good food, and good times.
This edition of the Sunday Summary covers two weeks again, as I was simply unable to find the time to even get reviews done in a timely manner this month, let alone the summaries - I barely found the time to read!. I am just now about caught up on my reviews - I finished a book late last night that I still need to write a review for.
I do really enjoy the holidays, but I am looking forward to the return to my normal routines and pace.
So, without any further preamble, here we go!
Books Reviewed:
THE WINTERS, by Lisa Gabriele. This book starts with a stunning opening line, and kept me engaged and eager for more until the end! You can read my review in THIS POST.
A SPARK OF LIGHT, by Jodi Picoult. Never one to shy away from controversial topics, Picoult has written a story set in a Woman's Health Clinic that is sure to have people thinking and talking. You can read my review HERE.
THE OTHER WOMAN, by Sandi Jones. A mother and a fiance square off in battle of wits and wills in this page turner. My review can be found HERE.
A MAP OF DAYS, by Ransom Riggs. This is book 4 in the series MISS PEREGRINE'S HOME FOR PECULIAR CHILDREN. Jacob Portman and his peculiar friends are now in America! Read more about this latest installment of this series in THIS POST.
Ramblings and Miscellany:
Best wishes of the season to all!
I don't care what you celebrate - I only care that you are happy and healthy enough to enjoy the celebration. Whatever you celebrate - even if it is just life itself - I wish you the best! #PeaceOnEarth #Celebrate #Goodwill pic.twitter.com/CGAh0bjbVe— The Last Page Turned (@Page_Turned) December 24, 2018
