A Twitter-inspired look at books I’ve been reading recently. (And here’s what I read last month.) What’s on your bookshelf these days?
The Husband’s Secret / Liane Moriarty
An enjoyable and curious read of intertwined lives, with just enough depth and redemption. Flowed a bit like a made-for-tv-movie for me (and that’s not always a bad thing). Classic book club fare.
The Magician’s Assistant / Ann Patchett
A languidly paced, complex story that unfortunately held not enough magic for me. Patchett does set a scene exquisitely, but to this Nebraska girl, she didn’t do the Midwest justice.
A Bride Most Begrudging / Deeanne Gist
Easy, cheesy Christian historical fiction at its finest. Full of colonial anachronisms, fiery tobacco brides and redundant plot lines. Yet, somehow still enjoyable for a weekend read.
Three Wishes / Liane Moriarty
A joyful, big-hearted story of family dysfunction, really. Moriarty’s first novel drags a bit in places and I found myself annoyed a bit with some of the characters, but still a decent light read.
April, let’s do better.

I’m linking up with Anne Bogel for her Twitterature series. Hop on over to Modern Mrs. Darcy for more.
I’ve been intrigued by The Husband’s Secret…hmmm?!
I recently read The Husband’s Secret and I liked it. Thanks for stopping by my blog yesterday. 🙂
