Red Sky in the Morning: The Post KATRINA Cover-up (Paperback) Review

If you love a book with great characters, twisty, embedded story lines and a reasonable weekend read length; grab this one.
I was a little taken back by the title prior to reading the book.Post Katrina was such a political extravaganza that I was not sure whether it was about that.I was overjoyed to see it was not. Perhaps in a bit of tongue in cheek, the author used the title to "cover up" the real story inside!
I really liked the character of the mortician, turned taxidermist, turned (!!!). All the characters were fleshed out and interesting (and there were plenty of them).I personally think that Johnny Williams' character got a bit lost in the mayhem, but at the end of the day (and the book) he did the right thing. This thing might make a fun stage play someday!
Go for it, have some fun and read this, then pass it on like I did.

While reading `It's Morning,' an anthology written by Elaine Flowers, I too kept referring back to Shirley Murdock's classic.I am not a fan of anthologies and I didn't see a need to read an anthology written by just one author.However, I did like all of the stories.I would have to say that `The Letter' was the best and it was a snippet, if that.I enjoyed the way the author was able to draw out the drama, but each story, while loving, is very predictable.I would recommend to others and hope that in the next sitting it's a full book.

Deep Within the Morning Glory Blue (Paperback) Review

This story is about two young women, Isobelle an accountant, and Evelyn the architect, who fall instantly on love with each other on a London train in modern day England.Neither has ever been attracted to a woman before but from their first glance, they are smitten with each other. However, all is not well for the two young lovers because Evelyn has a stalker who has been terrifying her for years and is now threatening to kill her one and only love, Isobelle, in a jealous vendetta.

What I LOVED about this book was its literally style (a writing style which I usually don't like).Ms. Malinky writes very much in the vein of the Bronte sisters, Jane Austin, and Emily Dickenson, which means this book is full of lyrical writing and is very reminiscent of a 18th century novel.After I read this book the first time, I immediately started reading it again. If you enjoy romance, extremely likable and intelligent characters, beauty, and a well-written story, pick up this very excellent book. I can hardly wait for Ms. Malinky to write another book! She is an absolutely fantastic writer!Kudos to Ms. Malinky!!

Product Description:
Isobelle Swanson is making her usual train journey into London one crisp morning, when she meets Evelyn Hertford, a specialist architect as beautifully striking as the converted water tower in which she lives. This is a story about two women who fall very much in love and how they deal with their relationship and the impending wedding of Isobelle's sister, Fiona. A forthright Evelyn tells of her tortured past, for she is the subject of a vitriolic stalker whose malignant presence haunts the two young women through the course of the book. With the increasingly threatening behaviour of the stalker juxtaposed with the fevered imminence of the wedding, the conclusion aims to hold the reader spellbound to the end.

Christmas Every Morning [Hardcover] Review

Christmas Every Morning is one of the best books I've read all year and in my opinion the best book Lisa Bergren has ever written! The troubled relationship between Krista Mueller and her mother Charlotte is as authentic as it is complex. There is intensity and depth to the ravages of Alzheimer's that makes you want to call your mother to tell her you love her. Lisa Bergren avoids the trap of stereotypical pat solutions, offering a story that will keep you reading late into the night, get out the Kleenex for Christmas Every Morning!
-Traci DePree, author of A Can of Peas

Product Description:
Krista Mueller admitted her mother to the care facility run by Dane McConnell-Krista's friend and former love-knowing that Dane could take better care of Charlotte than Krista ever could. Besides, Krista has long since stopped actively caring about the woman who has hurt her so deeply through the years. Her intention is never to see her mother again. Then Dane informs Krista that he has found something of her mother's that Krista simply must see.

Unable to refuse the man who still means so much to her, Krista sets out for Taos-thoroughly unprepared for the dramatic journey of discovery that leads to a deeper understanding of the mother who emotionally abandoned her and brings back to the lost love of her youth.

A story of joy and loss, connection and forgiveness, Christmas Every Morning presents each day as a gift to be opened and every loved one as a treasure to be rediscovered.
