Ever since I read "BlackBerry Winter" last year and loved it I have been wanting to read more of Sarah Jio's books.

wow…Another Great book!! Jio weaves a masterful tale that you just have to find out what happened and who did it (literally! I stayed up until 1:30 am last night to finish it!

The Bungalow is one of those rare books that will sweep you back in time and become lost in the story. I loved this book to pieces. You know those books where you can tell by the first paragraph that you are just going to love it? That's how The Bungalow was for me. It's one of my favorite books of ...
