September was not a good month- book-wise. Between a wedding and a Carrie Underwood concert/fun girl weekend, the books did not get the attention they normally do.
Here’s the list:
1. Murder of the Cat’s Meow by Denise Swanson- cozy, light and fun reading. Skye has a wedding date set! If you’ve normally been enjoying Denise Swanson books- this is no exception. Although, she is using Skye to promote her “Dime Store” series a bit. And Trixie (Skye’s BFF) wants to write a book- she considered using an old title of Denise Swanson’s; but Skye let her know that a book was already out by that title. Cute-ish plugs for her series.
2. Death in Four Courses:A Key West Food Critic mystery by Lucy Burdette- second in the series. Haley finds herself in the middle of another troubling situation- except this time Eric, her friend and confindant, may be in more trouble than her. Fun reading, food descriptions, talk of Key West. Cozy-type book that you can curl up with.
3. The Glass Castle by Jeanneatte Walls- I cannot talk about this book anymore. Depressing. Read it for book club. Will not read again.
4. A Brew to a Kill by Cleo Coyle- Coffee, coffee, coffee- good mystery, and a development in the story of Mike and Claire.
5. The Rook by Daniel O’Malley- interesting. Sci-fi, with a mystery. Fans of things like X-Men will enjoy.
What did you read in September?
Traveling With T 
I haven’t read The Glass Castle and have been on the fence about it. I may not read it, now!
I just did not like it. I hated the parents, felt depressed reading it. It just was not this great book. You may want to read my review of it from a few days ago- that might explain some things about it. I’m just not a fan of non-fiction, as well (generally) and this book really just put me in a mood.
The book is not completely bad, but between my feeling depressed while reading it AND the discussion at book club- I’m over the book. If you decide to read it, let me know your thoughts. I read many reviews raving about the book, but it just wasn’t for me.
I probably won’t read it just because I’ve been on the fence for so long that it’s obvious that it isn’t a priority! I love non-fiction, but I prefer political non-fiction. I will let you know if I read it, though!
