Wow, a very good book. I was a bit thrown off by so many points of view there are four. However they all come together in the end. At one point towards the end of the book I had to set it down and walk away I was so worried about what was to happen. That is the mark of wonderful writing. I was ...

This book is simply terrible. The characters are flat, the plot/premise is like a Lifetime movie in the worst possible way and the story is rather far-fetched. The premise of the book is that our main character became pregnant, with TWINS, and does not know about it until she is 7 months pregnant. S...

I love how the author developed the story slowly. Letting the reader form a relationship with each character. The writing style of this author offers the reader a way to ask questions and have those questions answered.

Such a powerful book. So many hard topics are played out in this book making it disturbing to read at times but written in away that makes you unable to stop reading.

When I sat down to read One Breath Away I was hoping for an awesomely emotionally story about a school shooting. Unfortunately, that's not what this is.One Breath Away has, at its core, a great storyline. What it didn't have was focus. Throughout the novel, Gudenkauf is trying to tell two intertwin...

This was a selection from one of my book groups and I was half expecting not to like it. First, the story is told in alternating character voices, a format that’s used so often these days that I’m getting rather tired of it. Second, some of the GR reviews I read complained that there was too much me...

This is another Audible gem. They were having a "Buy One, Get One" sale, and These Things Hidden was my "Get One" book, chosen on a whim. But for that sale, I probably never would have read this. (I've been kind of unofficially avoiding YA lately, being sick of the love triangles and the YAPNR and t...

Full review is on Delirious About BooksI'm having a hard time summing up my thoughts on this one. Overall I enjoyed the story and even the changing POV didn't bother me, although most of the time I only wanted to read Augie's and Mrs. Oliver's. The other POV's were from Augie's mum Holly, Holly's Da...
