Just finished "Chasing Lilacs" by Carla Stewart
Very sad, it is about a 12 year old girl living in 1958 whos mother commited suicide. It is a gripping story about how she grows up feeling unloved by her mother and how she deals with the loss. On top of that she has a crazy aunt that lives with her who has something nasty up her sleeve (will not give it away).
This book is a Christian Fiction.
It was published this year.
I would rate this book a 9.5 Superb!
My next book is Under The Cajun Moon by Mindy Starns Clark
I have finished The Besiege by Arturo Perez Reverte and now I'm reading The Palestinian by Antonio Salas, this spanish journalist has been infiltrated into islamic terrorism for the last six years, very interesting.
Right now I am reading A Reliable Wife, by Robert Goolrick it is kind of an old early-mid 1800 I need a wife ad and she goes to Wisconsin wanting to marry him and poison him with arsenic. He almost gets killed before they get married and she is trying to nurse him back to health to kill him (Yikes!) It's a pretty good read though if you like that era. Also it was partially and loosely based on an old book and movie called The Wisconsin Death Trip (lots of creepy pictures of dead bodies and stories of death)
Also reading Lost Hours, by Karen White. I like her books, it's starting out pretty good.
Reading but about to quit on The Secret Lives of Baba Segi's Wives, by Lola Shoneyin about a Nigerian man's 4 wives and how the first two don't like the last one because she has a degree, the third one kind of likes the 4th, but is scared of retaliation from the 1st and 2nd. Kind of boring enough to drop. It is mostly about the women, not about life in Nigeria.
For a while I read everything I could get my hands on about the Donner Party plus all pictures and videos put in front of my eyes. I don't think I've read Desperate Passage though, gonna have to look into that!
