"A Court of Frost and Starlight" by Sarah J. Maas

It has been a long time since I read a Sarah J. Mass book, my bad!  In A Court of Frost and Starlight, Feye is getting ready for the winter holidays.  But not all is right in her kingdom.  I hated to see this book end.  This is much shorter than others I've read by her, but very good.  Sarah Maas is a very talented writer!  I LOVED IT!  (5++ stars)

"The Idaho Four--An American Tragedy" by James Patterson and Vicky Ward

The Idaho Four by James Patterson and Vicky Ward is a fantastic read about the murder of four college students at the University of Idaho.  Through lots of exclusive interviews, James Patterson and journalist Vicky Ward present their findings in this book that reads like a novel.  I am not a fan of James Patterson, but this was hard to put down.  He writes about the four heartbroken families and the the brilliant grad student and loner, Bryan Kohberger, who was indicted for their murders and facing trial.  This book is fantastic!  I would recommend this one for a book club.  (Gerard's review, 5 stars)

I'm Cutting Back

I have decided not to put up reviews for all the books we read, but only for the ones that we exceptionally liked.  It's become a chore rather than a pleasure for me.  I myself seldom read books anymore because I am into gaming with friends now from 6-12 times a week.  I am considering starting a new blog about gaming.  We'll see.
