![]() ![]() Meanwhile, Darley and her husband, Malcolm, a Korean American aviation-industry analyst who did not sign a prenup, are living off their own money as Darley fights the tedium of the entitled mommy lifestyle. That's unfair, though: Sasha signed a prenup. But on bad days." As Sasha finally admits in a gloves-off monologue following a gender reveal party gone awry, on bad days, it's "a janky Grey Gardens full of old toothbrushes and moldy baskets." A wealthier cousin of Cynthia D'Aprix Sweeney's The Nest, Knopf editor Jackson's fiction debut is a comedy of manners charting the fates of the Stockton siblings and their spouses, circling around the house where they grew up in Brooklyn Heights, now inhabited by Cord and his wife, Sasha, who is referred to as the Gold Digger by Cord's sisters, Darley and Georgiana. It was a four-story Brooklyn limestone, a massive, formal palace that could have held ten of the one-bedroom apartments Sasha had lived in before. "On good days, Sasha could acknowledge how incredibly lucky she was to live in her house. ![]() Money makes the world go round, particularly the world of an elite Brooklyn family. ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() And when she is asked to defend Jason in court, she realizes that her loyalty to her husband could unearth old secrets.

I based my book reviews on my preferences and what I like, and while these preferences may not be the same for others, I hope this review was still helpful. I know we all have different opinions and preferences with what we read. It’s about personal taste and what you would or want to tolerate with the books you read. ****I don’t equate these stories to real life. Would I read the other books in the series? Yes. Lucas story will be next and I am interested to see where this series will go. ![]() Once Aspen and Quinton got back into it, it gradually build and became good.Įxciting to see certain people and was more excited to see some people were extinct. It’s tying up loose ends and I don’t hav that many complaints.Īlthough Aspen had trauma that she endured, I thought the sex scenes after were still satisfactory. I really enjoyed the ending for them.īook 3 for me, I really did not have any major dislikes. The relationship between Quinton and Aspen grew, although it was still a tiny bit hot and old but only for a moment. It was interesting how Aspen’s past play out with her family and seeing Quinton’s family coming together to include her. Although what happen to Aspen in the end of book 2 was sad and bad, it was entertaining seeing Quinton go on a rampage.he went in hulk mode with his revenge. I like the way Aspen and Quinton’s story concluded. ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() I found someone who writes romantic suspense better than I do.

![]() ![]() All the art work I am including in this post was done by fans of the Necroscope series. In my gut I knew this was gonna be a great book. To be honest, I didn’t even read what it was about. It was a summer day and I was just looking around for something scary and unique, and when I saw the cover, a huge skull with a pointy tongue and sharp teeth, I was immediately drawn to it. I remember the exact bookstore where I first came across it a now long-out-of-business little ma & pa bookstore … you know, the kind that use to exist before such superstores like Borders and Barnes & Nobles swallowed such stores up. ![]() This 512 page novel is rich with character development, history, and violence. But what many people overlook is that in 1986 Brian Lumley wrote the first of the Necroscope books, detailing the adventures of Harry Keogh and how he became THE Necroscope with the ability to talk to the dead and transport himself anywhere in the world (and universe as it is) in the blink of an eye using The Möbius Continuum. In the world of horror literature Stephen King gave us It Dean Koontz wrote Strangers and Joe R. We also got such guilty pleasures as Jim Wynorski’s Chopping Mall, Steve Miner’s House, and George Pavlou’s Rawhead Rex. ![]() 1986 was a damn good year for horror: We got an amazing remake of The Fly by no other than David Cronenberg, From Beyond by Stuart Gordon, Night of the Creeps by Fred Dekker, and Demons 2 by Lamberto Bava. ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() The much-published Peterson ( The Ballad of Knuckles McGraw, Meeting Miss 405 and Silver Rain) has worked in libraries for some 35 years, including seven years in children’s services for Surrey Public Library, as well as teaching creative writing to adults, teens and and children.Īnd Watson, a poet and comparative newcomer to writing fiction, has worked for years with academically and literacy-challenged teens, as a teacher in Langley School District. The key to reaching reluctant teen readers – according to South Surrey authors and neighbours Lois Peterson and Cristy Watson – is including lots of dialogue. It isn’t the choice of subject matter or how cool you’re trying to be – although if you’re going for a contemporary voice, you’d better be darned sure your vocabulary is authentic. ![]() ![]() ![]() Rockets are leaving our globe at speeds unimaginable for most of human history, to orbit earth, moon, and sun.
