Marley & Me - John Grogan


Such a well written, funny, heartwarming book without a dull moment. I laughed out loud, and cried lots of tears, and still find myself thinking about Marley, that goofy irrepressible dog which the author has described so well, faults and all. This book was a surprise to me; it was more than just a dog story, it was about love, commitment, family, and unconditional love, told in a touching and engaging style that lingers in my heart.

The Night Ferry - Michael Robotham


An easy entertaining read about international human trafficking, with enough emotional content to lift it beyond a run of the mill thriller. For me, a new author - an interview of him in Good Reading Magazine interested me enough to read his books.
