Miller's Valley - Anna Quindlen
Publish date: April 5, 2016
She read
I enjoy Anna Quindlen's writing and this book certainly added to that enjoyment. It totally engaged me; I didn't want to put it down and in fact read it in two seatings. She provided good insight into growing up in a small town as well as the life experiences of a woman growing up in the 60s. Although the book spanned almost the entire lifetime of the main character, I never felt that it was rushed or that I was cheated out of knowing more about her. I'm even recommending this book to my husband!

The Bitter Season - Tami Hoag
She read
In the past, I have read a few of Tami Hoag's novels. Then I read one that I didn't like, and kind of avoided for a while. I picked up this one, the fifth in the Kovac and Liska series and was glad I did. I don't think it is necessary to have read the prior four novels to enjoy this one. It had a decent story, good character development, and I enjoyed it. If you haven't read Hoag or haven't in a while and like crime/detective stories, give this one a try.

My Name is Lucy Barton - Elizabeth Strout
She read.
When I read the synopsis of this book, I was going to pass. By the author of Olive Kitteridge and The Burgess Boys, I gave it a try and did enjoy it. I'm not sure it really went anywhere, but it was a very quick, engaging book. Not an equal of Olive by any means, however.

Moscow Sting - Alex Dryden
He read
Excellent novel of modern day Russia; delves into oligarchs and their connection to the former KGB.
Excellent novel for anyone interested in learning a little more about how modern day Russia under Putin is operated, otherwise it is a typical spy/espionage story.
