ReplyDeleteRosebush was awesome! At first I couldn't get into it, but as it progressed, it got better and better. Definitely movie material. ^_^ I still need to read Wherever Nina Lies.
ReplyDeleteits sad, but of your list i've only read SHINE and FORBIDDEN. both great books. but i think i'll have to add STORK to my TBR pile :)
ReplyDeletePhantom,
ReplyDeleteI love how you gave us adult and YA titles! How is it that I've never heard of Long Time Coming By Vanessa Miller? Must check that out. Great list. I love the covers for The Miles Between and Shine, and Wherever Nina Lies!
Thanks for helping me add some new to me books to my wishlist!
I've only read Forbidden!
ReplyDeleteI have Delivered With Love on my Nook or Kindle...can't remember which. I'll have to try and read it soon!

ReplyDeleteand i have had THE CONDESSIONS OF THE SULLIVAN SISTERS on my wishlist for a while ~ really need to get my hands on a copy :)
(also ~ love all the variety in your answers!)

Dang I haven't read any of these, though I really want to read Forbidden and Shine. Cool list! And thanks for adding if they're adult or YA - that helps me decide what to research for future reading!
ReplyDeleteThe first half of this (SAVE ME) book provided much thought-provoking information on volunteer moms in the school setting. The story was very exciting and moving with every page providing more incentive to keep on reading. The storyline explores our reaction in a time of emergency when one would have to make a split second decision on saving lives.
