This is the only book I have read by this author and I found it to be wonderful.It is a story of two friends and their differences in life. I agree that Val does not seem like much of a friend but after reading the book realized best friends come in all kinds of packages.

This is the first in the series and it was absolutely wonderful. Reich keeps several mystery themes going, all at the same time.

I cannot wait to start the next one!

This book is one of the best mysteries I have ever read. I had a little trouble keeping up with all the different characters and plots at first but it was well worth it.

I was not able to put this book down.


Generations: The History of America's Future,1584 to 2069

This is one of the most interesting books I have ever read. The authors outline the past and future in the term of generations that repeat themselves.

I was waiting on my next Sookie Stackhouse book when I decided to read the Harper Connelly series. I found this book delightful. The characters and plot are creative and the plot kept me wanting to read more and more.

I am looking forward to the rest of the series. Anyone who enjoys the hint of supernatural should definitely read these.


Homer's Odyssey: A Fearless Feline Tale, or How I Learned about Love and Life with a Blind Wonder Cat
Review Date: 6/4/2015


This is the first book I have read that is partially written from the cat's perspective and I loved it. It takes a little time to build the story initially but then on 9/11 it gets really intriguing.

If you love animals you should read it and her other book, Love Saves the Day.

I already had this book but it was so helpful that I wanted an extra copy to share with a friend. The book is made up of case studies of cat issues and specific ways to solve them. It is an excellent reference for anyone helping to place cats in good homes or if you personally have a cat.

Since I typically do not read autobiographies, I expected not to really like this book. However, it is one of the best books I have ever read. It is a blend between his travels with his brother and his life growing up. By the end of the book, I felt like I knew his family.

Also by reading it I gained some insight into the problems in the lives of others.
