"Life or Death" by Michael Robotham if FANTASTIC!

Life or Death by Michael Robotham is about Audie, a man to be released from prison soon, but the day before that happens he breaks out!  Why?  Thus begins a fantastic book!  Audie was in prison for a robbery--the $7 million stolen is still not accounted for but everyone knows Audi must have it somewhere.  The search for the money and Audie is on!

I LOVED this book because there is plenty of action that made this a page turner with a great ending too!  It got my interest from the start.

"God Never Blinks--50 Lessons for Life's Little Detours" by Regina Brett

God Never Blinks—50 Lessons for Life’s Little Detours by Regina Brett is a collection of Regina’s thoughts she wrote in her newspaper columns that were quite popular with readers. It has very short chapters so it is a quick little read but full of great advice from someone who felt neglected growing up, held various jobs, and is a Cancer survivor. It is an inspirational read I enjoyed. I liked that all 50 lessons are listed right in front in the Table of Contents.

"A Deadly Wandering" by Matt Richtel - Pulitzer Prize Winner

A Deadly Wandering--A Tale of Tragedy and Redemption in the Age of Attention by Matt Richtel tells the true story of Reggie Shaw.  One morning while driving, he got into a car accident.  One car with two men in it were killed.  There was a third car involved also.  When the accident was investigated, Reggie was blamed for causing it.  the cops said he was texting while driving.  Reggie does not remember it that way at all.

This is a great book!  It covers the people that were affected by this accident, how Reggie dealt with it and how the authorities built their case against Reggie.  This book isn't a "page turner," but it kept my interest.

"Tidal" by Amanda Hocking (3rd book of Watersong Series)

"Tidal" by Amanda Hocking is more about Gemma, the mermaid who wants to end the curse and get back to being a normal human being.  Her and her sister research mythology to see if they can figure out how to end the curse while she puts a spell on her boyfriend to make him hate her in order to protect him from the other sirens.  Harper struggles with a big decision about going to college to become a doctor as planned or staying to try to help Gemma.  Harper asks her boyfriend, Daniel, to protect Gemma since he's immune to the siren's song.  Penn, the head siren, is attracted to Daniel and they strike up a deal.

I was really looking forward to getting through this book to end the series and then found out there's still one more to go--Elegy.  This book really started to drag for me.  The mythology stuff was very boring to me and I just found myself plowing through it.  I don't think I'm going to bother with the final one in this series.  If I had known this was going to be all about mythological curses, I would never have started the series.
