Perfect timing for this question Kathy. I just devoured Open Primary by AC Fuller. It’s the first in a series and i’ve already pre-ordered the next one (Feb 15th). Highly recommended. Note: I was so moved, i posted a review and it was actually tweeted out by the author (so cool).

The One Man by Andrew Gross. In WWII a n American is sent to bring out a Jewish prisoner in Auschwitz concentration camp. The prisoner is a scientist who is extremely important to the Allies. Very suspenseful.

Have you read the house on rectory lane? It was one that took me a minute to get into, but an amazing read. I also loved the best friend by shanini boland.

I couldn’t get into it, but loved, loved, loved the movie. 🙁

@Johnna my favorite part of the movie is when Johnny and Celia cook for Minnie and offer her a job for life. From when she sees “Mr Johnny” in the driveway and tries to run to the very end of the voice over about how that table of food gave her courage to leave her husband. If it is on TV, I MUST watch that scene!!

Throne of Glass by Sarah J. Maas. At first I thought I wouldn’t read it because it was a YA. But I worked in a book store and adults were raving about it, so I tried it. I am hooked and have the whole series.
