Week 2, Part 3

The last of this week's reviews.

On "Plum Lucky" by Janet Evanovich:

Laugh out loud funny

On "A Tale of Two Cities" by Charles Dickens:

Not what I expected. Dickens combines beautiful language and suspenseful cliffhangers in this story that takes place during the French Revolution.The knitting Madam Defarge is chilling, who would have thought there could be menace within the fiber arts? Highly recommended even if you don't typically read classics.

On "The Empty Copper Sea" by John D. McDonald:

61/2 rating out of 10. Some sex and violence but not as bad as some of the newer books.

On "Patterns in the Sand" by Sally Goldenbaum:

Nice knitting-based mystery set on the Massachusetts coast. Goldenbaum adds a couple of nice twists at the end that are very logical and believable.

On "The Apple Turnover Murder" by Joanne Flake:

Her first books were much better.

That's all for now, I hope you all enjoy your Fourth of July holiday- keep reading and keep the reviews coming.
