Books: Queen of Broken Hearts, Summer Reading, the Great Far Away

Queen of Broken Hearts, by Cassandra King.

Southern women. Romance. Mystery. Good read, but long and slow.

4 stars


Summer Reading, by Hilma Wolitzer (Publication date: June 1, 2007)

(I read the galley proof). One intriguing and interesting character of three main characters.

3.5 stars


The Great Far Away, by Joan Frank.

Don't bother.

  1. Agreed! Joan is a queen of shameless self-promotion while her writing sets teeth on edge. I haven't read this one but made myself go through a couple earlier tomes, rolling my eyes and amazed this drek could get published.
