Actually, this book is really F’ing great. It is funny as hell, smart, poignant, painful and relatable. There is nothing romantic about divorce, and Monica Heisey captures the messy search for meaning (and joy?) with hilarity and tenderness. Too bad this book wasn’t around years ago because some of us would have clutched it to their chest as they cried in a heap in their closet over their failed marriage (or any failure for that matter) and thanked God Monica came into their life and was now their BFF. But don’t you worry - even if you are one of those happy, well-adjusted, non-single people (goodie for you) you will still ADORE this book and not be able to put it down!

I loved this fast paced thriller, a twisty game of cat and mouse. Helen's idyllic marriage and pregnancy changes the day she meets Rachel in her first prenatal class. A past crime is about to be exposed that could destroy all of their lives. Greenwich Park is about unreliable friendships, motherhood, siblings and the high price of keeping secrets.

This is the coolest, most engaging book you will ever own. The novel stands alone, and the 2nd storyline (my favorite) takes place in the margins of the book: a correspondence between 2 college students who trade Ship of Theseus back and forth. Postcards, handwritten letters, maps, photo copied articles, and other goodies are inserted within the books pages, just waiting to be discovered. You simply cannot have this immersive experience on a Kindle!

Fans of true crime: you won't want to miss this one! The case of the Cape Cod serial killer from the late 60's, Tony Costa, went largely forgotten due to the Manson murders that happened a few months later, stealing the spotlight of national news. Costa brutally killed at least 4 young women in the vibrant hippie town of Provincetown, MA. This case also haunted up-and-coming local writers/rivals Kurt Vonnegut and Normal Mailer, who took a keen interest in launging their own investigations of the murders (Vonnegut's daughter was an acquaintance of Costa's). Superbly researched, Helltown is shocking, disturbing and compelling, reading like horror novel. Who knew idyllic Cape Cod could have such a dark chapter?

Off the coast of SC on Mallow Island sits a stunning old building called The Dellawisp (named after the turquoise birds who live on the property.) The quirky tenants are are creative lost souls, and lonely strangers who are brought together through magical realism, food and a few lingering ghosts. It is an enchanting tale about learning how to trust, love and ultimately heal. I love the gentle, magical secrecy the author uses in all of her books! I did not want this book to end.
