The Return of Moriarty - Jack Anderson

Have you ever started a book and immediately had the feeling that you just weren't going to connect with it? This is what happened to me with this book - initially. I actually put it aside for a bit and then came back to it. I decided to start over and what a difference that made! For some reason, those few days made a huge difference and the second time I felt an immediate connection. This book is great, it was a real page turner and it definitely kept me guessing from the start. If you like Sherlock Holmes this is definitely a book to read.

Family Family - Laurie Frankel

The bitter and petty part of me REALLY wants to drag out my soapbox and go to town on this book. The TiredTM part of me can't be bothered. Sufficient to say I would never recommend this book that I slogged through simply because I hate not finishing a book that I have started.

Time of the Child - Niall Williams

Not sure what to make of this book. The writing is excellent, but to what end? The titular child doesn't show up until about halfway through the book, and while I can understand character development and not needing a plot-driven book it seems like the title doesn't quite fit. If you read this I would love to hear your thoughts.
