Recent Reads

I love a good beach read. And I loooove the library system here. I am constantly jumping on the website to request new titles and normally the wait time isn't too terribly long unless I'm trying for a new release. So, in an effort to entertain you this afternoon here are the most recent titles I've read and my oober professional reviews of them.

(Public Service Announcement: these books are only meant to entertain and help you waste large amounts of time. You've been warned.)



sTori Telling

by Tori Spelling

I know what you're thinking, but honestly, she's a great writer! I found it very easy to read and before I knew it I was almost done. She has a very interesting story to tell and after reading it I have really come to like her more. Basically, this was comparable to reading a People magazine...but a long, picture filled and juicy one!



CandyLand

by Candy Spelling

I was trying to be "fair" by reading this. You know, the whole hear both sides of the story thing. I literally struggled to get halfway through and then just returned it instead. It. is. AWFUL. Honestly, I don't know who let this get published but they must have been cut a pretty check by Candy herself. Every chapter starts out with a point, loses complete focus and then ends with a bashing of Tori. I made it through 8 long and unorganized chapters and then couldn't bear it anymore. She's nutso...that's what I learned from this read.



Mommywood

by Tori Spelling

Another home run as far as I'm concerned. Cute stories of her children. Honest mistakes that she's made as a mother. And some great pictures to boot! I'm "Team Tori" all the way!



love the one you're with

by Emily Giffin

I love this author. I've read all of her books to date adn can't wait for the next release! There were moments where I wanted to slap the main character, but that made the story all the better. I may or may not have cried through the last few chapters of this one.



Certain Girls

by Jennifer Weiner

The sequel to Good in Bed. I consider Weiner to be one of my top five authors to read and this follow up to the AMAZING Good in Bed did NOT disappoint! I wish the ending had been a bit different, but it was great all the same. Now I'm hoping for a third book to be written about Cannie and her crazy ways!!!

Next on my list...



P.S. I'm a book cover junkie. That's how I pick most of my reads.
