Finish The Series Challenge - Kell Sabin by Linda Howard

Kell Sabin by Linda Howard
#3 Heartbreaker
#4 White Lies


Linda Howard Collection (Heartbreaker & White Lies)Linda Howard Collection by Linda Howard
My rating: 3 of 5 stars

A number of years ago I was on a Linda Howard kick and read everything the library owned.  They had books 1 and 2 in this series but not books 3 and 4.  I thought now would be a good time to finish the series.  I liked the first two books and I liked these two books.  They are clearly 80's romances.  They have the overly dominate older male and he pretty much forces himself onto a woman at least 5 years younger who is kind of willing.  That aside, they were good stories.

Heartbreaker was connected to the story in book 2. I kind of remembered the book but it wasn't really necessary to read this story.  Michelle and John have circled around each other for years, since Michelle was too young John kind of kept his distance.  They both have the wrong impression of each other and this time around they both are learning the truth about each other.  Things seems to be going smoothly until Michelle's ex starts trouble, of course John is there to help her save the day.

White Lies is connected through Kell Sabin and his super secret spy group that kind of works for the government. Jay is called upon to identify a badly bruised man as her ex-husband.  He's not the man she remembers but figures they government has a reason they want everyone to thin he's her ex, so she goes along with their plan.  Along the way she falls for this mystery man who can't remember anything.  As his memory comes back, trouble finds them. They both have to decided if they can build a relationship with his past now known by both of them.

Blind Date with a Book

Last year I put together a book display called Blind Date with a Book.  I found the idea through another librarian's post and thought it was great.  Last year I wrapped 19 books and 15 books were checked out.  We asked that people reviewed the book but unfortunately only two people returned reviews. Last year's books included: In the Hot Zone by Kevin Sites Night by Elie Wiesel Tom Clancy's Ghost Recon by Daivd Michaels Macbeth by Shakespear A Million Little Pieces by James Frey Wolf Hall by Hilary Mantel An Inconvenient Truth by Al Gore Under the Dome by Stephen King Lawless by Nora Roberts The Sinatra Files by Tom Kuntz The Help by Kathryn Stockett The Dante Club by Matthew Pearl Ford County by John Grisham The Elegance of the Hedgehog by Muriel Barbery The Postmistress by Sarah Blake A Beautiful Mind by Sylvia Nasar Hide & Seek by James Patterson A Vintage Affair by Isabel Wolf Gorgeous East by Robert Girardi Most of these books were ones tha

Peek Inside a Book - Becoming

Book Beginnings on Friday from  Rose City Reader   The Friday 56 with  Freda's Voice . This week I'm reading: Becoming   by Michelle Obama It Begins:   Preface March 2017 When I was a kid, my aspirations were simple.  On Page 56: This was the doubt that sat in my mind through student orientation, through my first sessions of high school biology and English, through my somewhat fumbling get-to-know-you conversations in the cafeteria with new friends. Not enough. Not enough.  It was doubt about where I came from and what I'd believed about myself until now. It was like a malignant cell that threatened to divide and divide again, unless I could find some way to stop it.  Verdict: I'm really enjoying this look into Michelle Obama's life. It's comforting in a way to see that she has struggled with self image, self doubt and a need to be in control in an order to comfort herself.  She talks about meeting new people while cam

Peek Inside a Book: The Hate U Give

Book Beginnings on Friday from  Rose City Reader   The Friday 56 with  Freda's Voice . This week I'm reading: The Hate U Give   by Angie Thoas It Begins:   I shouldn't have come to this party. On Page 56: Talking to Ms. Rosalie may be harder than talking to the cops, honestly. But I owe it to Khalil to pay his grandmother a visit. Verdict: This book is so popular that it has had a constant holds list since it was released in 2017. I'm currently on either my 3rd or 4th checkout and I'm finally reading the book.  All the previous checkouts I had so many things checked out that I didn't get a chance to crack the cover before my loan period was over.  I was so nervous reading it, thinking that the hype wouldn't hold up (its happened to me before) but no, this book is living up to the hype, the must deserved hype.
