"Wish You Were Gone" by Kieran Scott

In Wish You Were Gone by Kieran Scott, Emma's husband, James, died in an accident.  This novel goes into the time before and after James' death.  This book is very good!  It is told by many people which I enjoyed very much.  The ending was just fantastic!  I highly recommend this one!  (Gerard's review, 5++ stars)

"Mr. Granite If from Another Planet!" by Dan Gutman

Mr. Granite Is from Another Planet! by Dan Gutman is the first book in the My Weird School Daze series that I didn't enjoy at all.  It was about going green but things in it made no sense at all and it wasn't as funny as the others either.  It was just stupid.  The only good thing about this one is that it's a quick read!  I would recommend skipping this one!  (Karen's review, 1 star)

"My Darling Husband" by Kimberly Belle is a Nail-Biter

My Darling Husband by Kimberly Belle is all about one extremely bad day for Cam and Jade and their two young children.  Jade and her son and daughter are held held hostage by a masked man with a gun in their own home while waiting for Cam to bring $734,296 by 7 p.m.!  Cam is a celebrity chef with several high-end restaurants, but with some big secrets not even his wife is aware of.  

This is full of suspense.  I really liked the interaction between the gunman and the kids.  This book had twists I did not expect and could not guess the ending.  This was a fascinating read for me inspired by true events!  (Karen's review 9/19/22, 5 Stars)  

Gerard's review:  

My Darling Husband by Kimberly Belle deals with a married couple, Jade and Cam.  They have two children.  All seems fine from the outside; however, when Jade and her children are held hostage in their home by a gunman, secrets come out that paint not so nice a picture.  This is good stuff!  I liked the storyline and really got to care about the characters.  (5 stars)
