                                                                   STARRY NIGHT

by Debbie Macomber

 

Columnist Carrie Slayton travels to Alaska to write about Finn Dalton, a reclusive author. Naturally, he refuses to be interviewed. By the time Carries goes home to Chicago, they are half way in love.  Starry Night is a delightful novel of finding happiness in the most surprising places.

 

Maybe I don’t have the Christmas spirit yet.  Good story, but predictable.

 

King and Maxwell

by David Baldacci

 

is the 6^th book in the King & Maxwell series by David Baldacci. Through my DVR I have been enjoying the series on TNT and am sad that the show was canceled.

 Tyler Wingo, a sixteen-year-old boy, hires Sean and Michelle to find out about his father’s death in Afghanistan. Sam Wingo was supposedly killed in action but Tyler has heard from his dad. Why the military would says his dad is dead and what is really going on? This case goes from Afghanistan to Washington D.C.

 Though slower than normal at the beginning, it picks up and is an enjoyable read. I would recommend reading all the books in the series: Split Second, Hour Game, Simple Genius, First Family, The Sixth Man and King and Maxwell. 

 

 

 

 

 

  

Castle Dale Library Presents...

June and Day have sacrificed so much for the people of the Republic-and each other- and now their country is on the brink of a new existence. June is back in the good graces of the Republic, working within the government's elite circles as Princeps-Elect, while Day has been assigned a high-level military position.
     But neither could have predicted the circumstances that will reunite them: just when a peace treaty is imminent, a plague outbreak causes panic in the Colonies, and war threatens the Republic's border cities. This new strain of plague is deadlier than ever, and June is the only one who knows the key to her country's defense. But saving the lives of thousands will mean asking the one she loves to give up everything.
