"The Book of Lost Names" by Kristin Harmel


WOW!  The Book of Lost Names by Kristin Harmel was SO GOOD!  It is based on a true story--how one woman, Eva, was able to save countless numbers of Jewish children from being rounded up by the Germans during World War 2!  You will have to read the book to see how she did that.  I enjoyed this book because the story line and the characters are both good!  I suggest you make time for this book.  You will be glad you did!  (Gerard's review, 5++ stars)

"Still See You Everywhere" by Lisa Gardner


In Still See You Everywhere by Lisa Gardner, a serial killer has three weeks until she is put to death.  She wants Frankie to find her younger sister, who has not been seen in years, to say a final goodbye.  Who knows if she is even alive?  Lisa Gardner is always good and this book is no exception.  It starts out fast, but then there is a dull part.  However, the action more than makes up for that!  What an ending!  (Gerard's review, 5 stars)

"Eruption" by Michael Chrichton and James Patterson


Eruption
by Michael Chrichton and James Patterson is about a volcano erupting in Hawaii.  When you live in Hawaii, people always talk about the "Big One."  The volcano eruption and lava flowing over everything.  Now what is coming is bigger than the "Big One" and cannot be stopped!  

If you get the large print, you can fly through this book quickly.  The constant action kept me turning pages.  There is not much character development, but I think the action makes up for that!  (Gerard's review, 5 stars)
