This blog is about the ups and downs in the life of an infertile couple as they strive to create their family. Nieces and nephews abound and are dearly loved, but sons and daughters are much harder to come by and strongly desired.

Review: Plum Lovin'
Plum Lovin' by Janet Evanovich
My rating: 4 of 5 stars
This is a quick read. These "between the numbers" books are a lot of fun (and fluff). I read this one in an afternoon.

Review: Dead in the Family
Dead in the Family by Charlaine Harris
My rating: 4 of 5 stars
I'll admit that I was surprised to find this book at the library. I hadn't been paying enough attention to know that another Sookie Stackhouse novel had been released. Big excitement in my little world.
That said, the book needed something else. It either needed to be longer (to fully develop more of the plot points) or have fewer side stories. Pick something to focus on - be it the conflict now that the Weres have "come out" or Eric's history (or Bill's), or Sookie's relationship with Hunter, or the Faery stuff - any of those could have been a main plotpoint with the others as side notes. Instead, we have all of these things competing for status as the "main" storyline.
Even with these complaints - I loved this book. It took me only about a day to read it - despite having to work. :)
