Crossroads Road is Mr. Kay’s first offering in the literary world. Relentlessly funny and over the top, it was a pleasurable read and was so good, I read it all in one day.

Lisa See’s book about China in 1937 stretching until shortly after the reign of communism begins is probably the most difficult book I have ever rated.
Ever.

The 11th installment in the Southern Vampire mysteries didn’t exactly live up to it’s predecessors in delivery of storyline or charm the way the previous offerings have.
