"The Shape of Night"

Tess Gerritsen

Tess Gerritsen is a unique writer in the way she writes paranormal romance novels as well as detective novels. I have read them all and have enjoyed each and every book she has written. She has such an excellent way of describing the characters and environment of the story. You can see the characters and see the scene before you.

This book is a mixture of romance, ghosts, a small town, and questionable deaths. Great fun!

Wonderfully written. Pick up a copy!

"The World That We Knew" by Alice Hoffman

A brilliantly written story in a fairy tale, historic setting. Alice has a different way with words. She writes really well and has beautiful characters and scenery. When I read this book, I felt pulled in and saw it all. Creativity is one of her strong suits. I love the way she created another and how that creation helped save a life or more.

Instead of carrier pigeons, Alice creates a story where a heron carries messages to one particular couple. It's magical!

I highly recommend you pick up a copy of this book. You will enjoy it tremendously.

"Diamond Doris" by Doris Payne

Growing up poor and listening to her father beat her mother, Doris started preparing for her adulthood as a child. She dreamed and reached her dreams and more. Her world became one of travel, luxury, and, yes, lots of money as she stole diamonds all over the world.

"Diamond Doris" is a fascinating read. Her writing skills are superb. She introduces you to her life in total. It's a book you will enjoy time and time again.
