I first heard about Eve in Hollywood through an ad on Goodreads. I saw the words “All About Eve” splash across the screen and immediately clicked on it as the 1950s film of the same name is my favorite movie. I soon found there was no relation to the film but as I scrolled down […]
You Are One of Them is steady, keeping an even pace, but it wasn’t necessarily the thriller I thought it was going to be — for some reason I was picturing espionage. This is not to say that I was disappointed, not by a long shot. You Are One of Them was suspenseful, I assumed […]
I did something I hardly ever do, I read The Other Typist in one day. A few weeks ago a fellow blogger, Elizabeth at Silver Reviews warned me that The Other Typist was a book I would have to talk about, and she was right! It was incredible. The ending was a complete twist that I […]

The couple’s only child, a son had hemophilia, a disorder that the Tsarevich Alexei Nikolaevich had. And what happened to […]
Reading these books makes me wish or fantasize that I could be more like Nancy. She’s sweet and personable, making friends almost everywhere she goes and dresses smartly in the latest fashion. Her father Carson Drew is a sharp, handsome lawyer including his daughter in all his legal actions. I also adore the 1930s, that […]
