This was well-written and compelling. I couldn't put it down and read it in one weekend. I have never been one to skip ahead to see how a book turns out but I was highly tempted. Highly recommendable. The author uses scientific research on the power of human memory to layer the story with more depth yet the chapters are short and easy to read.

The Book of Bright Ideas/Sandra Kring
Finally some literary fiction. I've been reading a lot of light stuff that I just couldn't fall in love with. This is a great story that is well written and is filled with likable and relatable characters. It reminded me of Sue Monk Kidd's The Secret Life of Bees, this time with a 9-year-old heroine.

Angry Housewives Eating Bon Bons/Lorna Landvik
I read this a few years ago, one of the earlier novels about a woman's book group.
