April Books

I read 8 books in April:

1) Deeper than the Dead - Tami Hoag
2) Take Three - Karen Kingsbury
3) Never Look Away - Linwood Barclay
4) This Time Together-Laughter & Reflection - Carol Burnett
5) Fear the Worst - Linwood Barclay
6) The Last Surgeon - Michael Palmer
7) Midnight Sons-Vol. 3 - Debbie Macomber
8) Waking up in Charleston - Sherryl Woods

Linwood Barclay's newest - Never Look Away, and The Last Surgeon were probably my two favorite books this month. I am so glad my niece, Lenore, turned me on to Barclay. His books are suspenseful and inventive. Michael Palmer doesn't churn out a novel every 6 months, so I'm always excited to read his books. Thanks to Lenore for loaning me a SIGNED copy of The Last Surgeon! I also really enjoyed Carol Burnett's book. It was interesting to read how she started her career, and how she ended up with her own show. I remember many an evening laughing my head off at the antics of Carol, Harvey Korman, Tim Conway and Vicki Lawrence.

Oooh! If you still have Fear The Worst, can you save it for me?

Thanks!

REVIEW: The Lost Girls by Allison Brennan

THE LOST GIRLS
by ALLISON BRENNAN
St. Martin's Press

5 STARS

Love Brennan's Lucy Kincaid series!

Siobhan Walsh has been looking for two sisters who disappeared 2 years ago. She feels responsible, so when she gets a phone call from a Texas priest, who has found an abandoned newborn with a locket nearby that she'd given one of the girls; she goes to Texas in hopes of finding them. She calls in her FBI friends, including Lucy Kincaid, and the search is on. Meanwhile, Lucy's fiance, Sean, has an unexpected visit from a former girlfriend. Her husband, and the 12 year old son he never knew he had, have disappeared in Mexico. So it's time for the Rogan family to find out what's going on.

This is a suspenseful, hard-to-put-down book, so hang on for the ride! Be prepared for a human trafficking story that is hard to stomach, and more than likely, all too true in this day and age. Mexican cartels, murder and mayhem. This book has it all.

Entertainment Weekly "REVISITED"

(thanks for the REVISITED idea, Robyn!)

Okay, I posted last week a blog entry about Entertainment Weekly's Top 100 Movies of the last 25 years. Now I'm going to post their Top 10 TV Shows, and my Top 10 TV Shows...

ENTERTAINMENT WEEKLY'S TOP 10:
1. The Simpson's - don't like, never watch
2. The Sopranos - never watched
3. Seinfeld - don't like, not a Seinfeld fan
4. The X-Files - never watched
5. Sex and the City - never watched (do you see a pattern here?)
6. Survivor - UGH - I HATE ALMOST ALL REALITY SHOWS!
7. The Cosby Show - I would put this in my Top 20, but probably not my Top 10
8. Lost - never watched
9. Friends - HATED!
10. Buffy the Vampire Slayer - never watched

Obviously you can see my tastes are definitely not the same as the EW reviewer's.

Here's my Top 10:
1. Miami Vice - I still drool over Don Johnson
2. Golden Girls - consistently funny, and I love Sophia!
3. Scarecrow and Mrs. King - Bruce Boxleitner was one HOT dude!
4. CSI Miami - great cast! great st…
