message 15: by Lisa B (new)

Lisa B Buesing (lisabuesing) | 135 comments 18) Again the Magic- finished 4/15. It was okay. With it being part of the Wallflowers series, I expected it to be better.


message 16: by Lisa B (new)

Lisa B Buesing (lisabuesing) | 135 comments 19)The Peculiar Case of Lord Finsbury's Diamonds- finished 4/28. It was pretty good, but I expected more from a Stephanie Laurens book.

20) Tequila Mockingbird- finished 4/29. LOVED IT! A book for those that love both books and mixed drinks.

21) Ready For Air- finished 4/29. Was a heavy book and took me a few months to get through. I enjoyed it, but would never have even thought to read it if it wasn't for my book club.

Lisa B Buesing (lisabuesing) | 135 comments 23) The One (by Kiera Cass)- finished 5/21. I enjoyed it, but not quite as much as I enjoyed The Selection or The Elite.

Oh great... I kind of like it when there is more than one POV so hopefully I enjoy it more than you. Too bad you didn't like how the trilogy ended.

29)American Gods- finished 8/20. Read for my book club. Didn't care for it after first finishing it. Liked it better after discussing it with my book club.
