The Plot
by Jean Hanff Korelitz
View in Library Catalog
book cover


There is just something about this book I did not like. I’m not sure if it was the writing, which was flat and took way too many words to explain things, or if it was simply the plot, no pun intended. It’s about a writer who takes someone’s idea for a story. But I found the events predictable and frankly was glad when the book was done.

I liked the book, but it was too much romance and not enough thriller.
Shoulders of Giants

The wonderful world of mathematics -- it's history, failures and successes leading to the world as we know it. If you think a book on mathematics is dull and would be over your head, think again. I'm not saying this book is an easy read but the author makes the material palatable and easy to digest.

Frida and Gabriel grew up together in a cult that they escaped together. In this dual timeline story you get a glimpse into that time. In the present they reconnect at a luxury resort but a murder occurs... The book does have some flaws but I totally enjoyed it.
The Sign of the Four

book cover


This book was a true Sherlock Holmes mystery and was very good. The characters are few and the plot is simple to follow and so this telling lets you focus on the character of Holmes, which I enjoyed. This offers a nice glimpse into his personality, seeing how he is when bored, frustrated, and exhausted. The only thing I was not thrilled with was the long description of the backstory at the end by one of the criminals
