Roundaboutgirl's Titles

Neither Here Nor There by Bill Bryson (Adventure, Suspense, Travel, Sports) If you can get through the 1st two horribly boring CD's and the semi-socialist leanings, it has some funny excerpts. It reads more like a journal from a trip than a normal book. I have to say that I think I had a lot more fun while backpaking through Europe than the author. The only time I agreed with him was in the Naples and Sorrento section. Naples is a squalid, smelly slum and Sorrento is beauty, peace, and perfection (my opinion). -- Added by Roundaboutgirl on 02/28/2013 Add Comment

A Cast-Off Coven by Juliet Blackwell (Mystery, Horror, Crime, Business, Politics) This was the 2nd book in the Witchcraft Mystery series. I found this one a much better read than the first. I think the first one is just to set the scene and the second was a better story. Enjoy! -- Added by Roundaboutgirl on 02/18/2013 Add Comment

Little Women by Louisa May Alcott (Classics, Literary Fiction, Biography) It was nice re-read one of the old classics. I started with The Professor by C. Bronte but I couldn't force myself to slog through more than 4 chapters (boring beyond belief), so I went back to an old favorite. I think I must have read the children's version as a child and didn't realize that the original was much more detailed. I'm glad I finally read the whole book. -- Added by Roundaboutgirl on 02/18/2013 Add Comment

The Flying Cavalier by Gilbert Morris (Historical Fiction, Westerns, History) I began this series over 20 years ago & stopped reading it before this book was published. It was really nice to read about this family again. If you want to read the series you should really start with book 1, but this one could stand on it's own without the hisoty in the proir books. It was well written and really made me think about the flying during WWI. -- Added by Roundaboutgirl on 02/15/2013 Add Comment

Ghost Of A Chance by Yasmine Galenorn (Mystery, Horror, Crime, Business, Politics) A little more hard core than I like, but overall it wasn't bad. I did like the story line and will probably read the next one in the series. This was the first in this series. -- Added by Roundaboutgirl on 02/12/2013 Add Comment

Ghost Ship by P. J. Alderman (Mystery, Horror, Crime, Business, Politics) I read this last year but since I started re-reading the series again, I needed book 2. This is a great book if you like jumping back and forth through time with ghosts. -- Added by Roundaboutgirl on 01/27/2013 Add Comment

Harry Potter 01 by J. K. Rowling (Science Fiction, Fantasy, Science, Health) I love this whole series but the first one is my favorite. If you haven't read the Harry Potter Books, do it! They are for adults too. Actually, you understand them better than children. I love the list of books Harry is required to buy. Read the titles and you will understand why. -- Added by Roundaboutgirl on 01/27/2013 Add Comment

Eve's Christmas by Janet Dailey (Romance, Women's Fiction, Relationships, Humor) This is an old-fashioned type of romance novel set in modern times. It was cute and sometimes I really felt like I could identify with the main charater's personality. -- Added by Roundaboutgirl on 01/27/2013 Add Comment

Secondhand Spirits by Juliet Blackwell (Mystery, Horror, Crime, Business, Politics) This was not your normal type of "who-done-it." It is mythical or magical. Just a little darker than I normally like but I think I will read the second in the series. -- Added by Roundaboutgirl on 01/22/2013 Add Comment
