This is a short, quick novel by a Pulitzer Prize winning author with witty observations of relationships. It's humorous, sad, and joyful.

Translated from Italian, this gives the impression (possibly mistaken) that all disagreements are settled by repeatedly hitting and punching those who disagree. The brilliant friend drops out of school, marries wealth, becomes unrecognizable, but is perhaps brilliant.

I have read the first four Hunger Games books and am soooo excited for the fifth (Sunrise on the Reaping). I liked these books so much because they are so much different than any book I’ve read before. The complicated plot makes the story emotional and close to your heart even though it’s fictional.

I really liked reading about other characters and this book unlocked so much lore but I did kinda miss the protagonists but I liked that there were appearances from starflight and snowfall who are both protagonists and they did mention winter too

Thorough aspects of natural way to live along with TCM.

Meh….overrated and predictable

I don't give away spoilers in my reviews. I stumbled upon this book while searching my library's mystery shelves. I am a big fan of the Gilded Age and this sounded like a good read. Pamela Thompson is used to living richly and spending her time volunteering at charities. Unfortunately, her husband has foolishly spent their fortune in a scam. Pamela and her husband lose everything. Then Pamela loses her husband, Jack. She then takes over a boardinghouse that is one of her investments since she and her ward Brenda can live there. Pamela becomes a store detective at Macy's. This was my favorite part of the book. I loved reading about her training with Harry, the store setting, all of the items for sale back then. Pamela goes on to become a compation to Lydia Jennings, a rich woman who thinks there is something amiss with her household finances, staff, etc. I also loved the friendship that forms with Pamela's attorney boss, Prescott. I struggled to figure out who the murderer was - which is always a fun thing for a reader. I love the constant guessing game while reading a good mystery book. I plan on reading the other books in this series because I really liked how strong Pamela became while remaining a lady in those times. (from my Goodreads review)

AMAZING BOOK, 100 STARS!!!! Just read it! It’s awesome. This book consists of 2 novellas about a SecUnit, who calls itself Murderbot. This book is awesome read the entire series!

A fun conclusion to The Maid series. I enjoy this character and will miss her view of the world!

This is a heart-warming story about a struggling high school teacher who meets two children in need of a caring parent.
