Book Description:
Sundays at Tiffany's by James Patterson & Gabrielle Carbonnet: When Jane Margaux was a little girl, Sundays were pure magic. There were ice cream treats at a posh Manhattan hotel, afternoons with her mother shopping at Tiffany's and always the company of her wonderful imaginary friend, Michael. Unfortunately, little girls grow up and imaginary friends move on. Now, twenty years later, Jane could us a little of that long-ago magic. An amazingly enough, she's about to get it!


Lady Killer by Lisa Scottoline: The mean girls are back. Lawyer Mary DiNunzio had put her high school arch-rivals behind her long ago. Then one of them struts into Mary's office pleading for help. Trish Gambone is terrified of her live-in boyfriend, an abusive, gun-toting drug dealer. When Trish suddenly goes missing, though, it's Mary who gets the blame. Dynamite suspense with a twist of horror!!


The Christmas Promise by Donna VanLiere: After a family tragedy had shaken Gloria Bailey to the core, she moved and built a new life by caring for people in need. When she is forced to take in a suspicious and disagreeable neighbor, her faith and patience meet their ultimate test. But there is no time like Christmas for second chances, forgiveness, and promises fulfilled.


Final Theory by Mark Alpert: "Einheitliche Feldtheorie" - The Theory of Everything. These are the strange last words of David Swift's old physics teacher, a former colleague of Albert Einstein. Einstein had died without discovering that theory. Or had he? In this exciting debut novel, the race is on to keep the theory out of the wrong hands before it is turned into inconceivable terror.

Overall, I think that this was an excellent combination of novels. They were all excellent reads and flowed very well from one to the next. Overall, easily 5 stars!

Sundays at Tiffany's: A great romance about fantastical imaginary friends and how they affect our lives - although a little far fetched for me, it was an extremely good read.

Lady Killer: I love Scottoline and this is an excellent read from her! Fast moving and well paced to keep you turning the pages until your done. Definitely a good addition to this selection!

The Christmas Promise: I had a little bit of a hard time getting started into this book, it simply isn't my typical style. However, by the time I was ten pages into it, I couldn't stop! You will love the ending - it is unexpected and heart warming!

Final Theory: A great science based read, it did an exceptional job of tying in facts with fiction and surprise twists and turns. Can't wait to read the next novel by this author!!
