It is entertaining. Green River Running Red by Ann Rule: loved this book-Ann Rule writes great--always like True Murder mysteries. When Men became Gods by Stephen Singular: A story that hits today's newspaper headlines-well written, true, and unbelievable as to its content-a good read. Killer Smile by Lisa Scottoline: it was a terrific book. Great author. Lady Killer by Lisa Scottoline: Great author. I liked the twists and turns. Chakra Healing and Karmic Awareness by Keith Sherwood: Not for beginners searching how to discover karma, energy, healing, aura strengthening,but does offer a step by step program. Rogue by Danielle Steel: Typical Danielle Steel but still a good read. Forever a Hustler's Wife by Nikki Turner: it was a good gangsta book. It should not be read by underage children. It glorifies violence and drugs. That making bad choices can bring a good outcome. Deadly Reigns II by Terri Woods: The sequel to Deadly Reigns. It was a fast paced, very smart gangsta tale. I really like that the characters were intelligent and well educated. This book kept me on the edge of my seat. 12:59:51 PM
