"Stay Awake" by Megan Goldin


In Stay Awake by Megan Goldin, Liv wakes up in the back of a cab with no memory of where she is or how she got there.  Every time Liv falls asleep and wakes up, her head is a blank.  Someone wants to make sure she does not remember committing a crime.  This is a very good thriller.  The last 20 or so pages are just fantastic!  (Gerard's review, 5++ stars)

"The Boy from the Woods" by Harlan Coben

In The Boy from the Woods by Haran Coben, a boy was found in the woods 30 years ago.  No one knows how he got there, or where his family is because he does not know his name.  But he does know how to survive!  A young girl is bullied in school and no one puts a stop to it.  One day she goes missing.  The boy from the woods, people call him Wilde, is asked to help locate the missing girl.  

This is a good book.  I liked the characters and it had some good action.  I was happy with the ending as well.  (Gerard's review, 5+ stars)

Teaser from page 10:  She has to know that it won't end for good.  Not today.  Not tomorrow.  The torment never stops for very long.

"Montana Lawman Rescuer" by Linda Ford

Montana Lawman Rescuer by Linda Ford is an inspirational historical romance that I enjoyed.  Emily is traveling with a 2-yr.-old boy when her stagecoach gets robbed and her belongings stolen.  She was thrown from the stagecoach and hit her head, causing her to forget who she is, where she is heading and why, and where she came from.  Jesse, the lawman, found her and invited her and the little boy to stay in his home with his grandmother until she decides where she wants to go.  

This is a good romance, but also inspirational about hot to let go of your past and not let it ruin your present and future.   I recommend this to anyone who enjoys a clean romance or feels shameful about his/her past.  (Karen's review, 5 stars)

"Obsession" by Karen Robards is Quite the Page Turner!

Obsession by Karen Robards begins with a mystery right off the bat and is filled with action, mystery and suspense throughout. This is a book about an FBI investigation against the head of the CIA whose personal assistant, Katherine, is caught up in the middle and in great danger throughout the book. Katherine doesn’t know who to trust and finds herself in several life and death situations. This novel is full of betrayal, suspense, mystery and action with a bit of humor and romance.

This book kept me guessing all through, but at least I picked the right person that Katherine should trust, well, sort of. This has a wild plot and interesting characters. I especially liked Katherine’s cat, Muffy! Loved the ending! The one explicit sex scene I could do without, but other than that, I liked this contemporary thriller which is a page turner I recommend to anyone who enjoys a good mystery and unusual plots.

"The Memory Book" by Lara Avery is Heartbreaking

In The Memory Book by Lara Avery, you meet Sammie McCoy.  She is a young girl with big plans and has worked really hard to graduate at the top of her class.  Now she wants to go to college in New York and make something of her life.  Unfortunately, she has a health problem involving her brain.  She writes everything down because soon she won't remember things and doesn't want to forget.

WOW!  What a fantastic book!  I really enjoyed Sammie right from page 1!  She is far from perfect, but then, none of us are.  With great writing, this is the kind of book you will long remember.

"With Malice" by Eileen Cook

With Malice by Eileen Cook centers on 18-yr.-old Jill Charron.  Jill has it all--smart, pretty and a very rich dad.  One day she wakes up and does not know where she is.  I turns out she is in a hospital and has been for some time.  She was in an accident and is in bad shape.  Then Jill finds out her best friend is dead and all signs point to Jill as being the one who killed her!  Jill doesn't think she did it but cannot remember what happened. 

I thought this book was really good because it kept me turning the pages eager to see what would happen.  I was hooked early and enjoyed the ride.  The writing was very good.
