What Alice Forgot by Liane Moriarty   
I really like the way the author writes. There are a lot of twists and different view points. This particular book really made me think about how I would feel if I lost 10 yrs of memory.

The Selection (Selection #1) by Kiera Cass   
This is a series and I read through this book quickly so I could hear the rest of the story. Very captivating and interesting love story.

The Elite (Selection #2) by Kiera Cass    
I was so excited to get into the second book and as usual the 2nd seems to drag – only a little! I loved the end and in turn was digging into the third.

The One (Selection #3) by Kiera Cass    
Loved how this book had lots of suspense and twists. This isn’t how I thought it would end the Selection so I enjoyed the twist.

The Heir (Selection #4) by Kiera Cass   
Found out there was a 4th book to the Selection series. This is a two book series in itself and 2nd one doesn’t come out until May 2016. Book was entertaining enough but not as good as the 1st part of series. Another Selection process but girl has an attitude!

The Longest Ride by Nicholas Sparks   
Really loved the love story of the young couple and kind of wanted to skip the other story but as I read on I loved how they came together.

Best Friends Forever by Jennifer Weiner    
This was a good book. A little Thema & Louise mixed with a girl getting revenge on a boy and best friend adventures.

Sisterland by Curtis Sittenfeld    
Kate & Vi are twins that share psychic powers. Kate suppresses hers and Vi openly shares her predictions. Vi predicts an earthquake, yet Kate’s world is the one upended. I liked this book.


The No. 1 Ladies Detective Agency by Alexander McCall Smith    
Mma inherits enough money to open up a detective agency. This is the first book of a series of all her detective work. I was not inspired to read the rest of the series.

Four by Veronica Roth    
I loved the Divergent series and wanted to read Four’s perspective of Dauntless and of Tris. It was a very easy read and made me want to watch the movie again.

Fangirl by Rainbow Rowell    
I loved this book. Two twins go off the college to become their own person, but soon realize they need each other. First love, heartbreak, friendship, and college life.

Between Shades of Gray by Ruta Sepetys    
This is a historical fiction of the Soviet invasion of Lithuania and what the deportees went through in order to survive the labor camps. The deportees went through so much horror to survive
