"Unhinge" by Calia Read is a "Must Read" (Book 2 in the Fairfax series)

In Unhinge by Calia Read, the sequel to Unravel, Victoria Donovan's life was going very well.  She married Wes, so handsome, so loving, had a great wedding and a beautiful house.  But then it all came undone.  Now she is in a mental hospital.  Her husband is dead, but Victoria is sure he is still coming to see her.  Is he?  Will a stranger help her and make her all right?

Wow!! What a read this is!  This book grabbed me from the start with good writing.  When it all plays out, in the end you will be like "What was that?"  I highly recommend this one--must read!

"Go Set a Watchman" by Harper Lee was Disappointing

Go Set a Watchman by Harper Lee is about the girl Scout from To Kill a Mockingbird grown up. She comes back to her hometown from living on her own in New York to visit for a couple weeks. She is shocked at some of the changes she finds and is especially disappointed in her father who she idolized as a girl.

This was a big disappointment to me and I almost quit on it twice, but plowed through to the end. It was just very boring. The only parts I really liked were the few flashbacks to when Scout was a child and teenager which were humorous. I really liked her in the first book, but didn’t like her at all in this one. The theme was that everyone needs to follow their own conscience and not to judge others based on only their actions without knowing their motives. I would highly suggest you pass on this book.

"The Silence of Six" by E. C. Myers

In The Silence of Six by E. C. Myers, you will meet Max, a young teen boy who knows how to hack into computers, phones and anything else.  He is very good at it!  When a close friend of his contacts him and then kills himself during a Presidential debate, Max wants to get to the bottom of it.

I enjoyed this book because there is lots of action and Max is a great character.  The ending was really good too!  If you liked Ready Player One, you will most likely enjoy this book too!

Teaser Tuesday

Gerard's:

Does it matter?  Dying's what you came for; here's your grand chance.

From page 104 of In Wilderness by Diane Thomas.

Max closed his eyes, wishing he could shut out the sounds too.  He saw blood and brains explode from the back of
Evan's skull in slow motion, like some over-the-top horror flick.

From page 17 of The Silence of Six by E. C. Myers.

Karen's:

"It's just that I'm so afraid of making a mess of being married to the wrong man--the wrong kind for me, I mean.  I'm no different from any other woman, and the wrong man would turn me into a screamin' shrew in record time."

From page 48 of Go Set a Watchman by Harper Lee.

"You're always up for some fun--right, girl?"  There was an edge to his voice, testing, like he knew something.  Courtney looked terrified.

From page 21 of Those Girls by Chevy Stevens.

Teaser Tuesdays is a weekly bookish meme, hosted by MizB of Books and a Beat. Anyone can play along, so I thought  I  would play for fun! Just pick two sentences from the book you are reading. 

Happy Reading!

"In Wilderness" by Diane Thomas

In Wilderness by Diane Thomas, Katherine receives word from her doctor that her time is short, so decides to move to an isolated cabin to spend the time she has left. However, she is not alone. A Vietnam vet suffering from PTSD, Danny who is 20 years old, lives up there too. These two people that are pretty much lost to the rest of the world.

This book is told by both Katherine and Danny. Even though there is not a lot of action, I just had to see how this would all play out so kept me reading. I was riveted by both of them. It is well worth your time.
