So many books! Too many responsibilities!

Lone Wolf | Gregg Hurwitz

I jumped into this one blind. I will absolutely go back and visit Evan on his previous adventures. Lone Wolf held the most exciting and harrowing action sequences that I have ever been exposed to. This story would make for a fabulous movie that viewers would be hard pressed to leave their seats for popcorn. I was blessed with the narrated version by NetGalley for an honest review. There were so many feelings to be explored in Evan!

Family Family: A Novel | Laurie Frankel

I enjoy a story that follows a person throughout time. At first I felt that the premise of a woman choosing to place two babies for adoption after unplanned pregnancies. All the missing pieces of India's life come together. Getting a backstage pass to the theater was a treat. A running theme through out is that the more people who love us the better. The premise of the story idea won out. Thank you NetGalley for a copy.

Octoberwoman I work for an adoption agency and I‘m here to tell you that we‘ve worked with a lot of women who place more than once! 3mo
