I loved Blueprints, Eight Hundred Grapes, and A Week at the Lake…and I want to read My Grandmother Asked Me…etc. , and downloaded A Man Called Ove to familiarize myself with the author’s voice. Thanks for sharing!
Here are MY WEEKLY UPDATES

I want to read Blueprints and Coconut Cake (and possibly eat some coconut cake, lol. I love it and no one else in my family does so that could be a calorie-rich endeavor, a whole cake to myself).
I DNF’d the Kind Worth Killing when I’d requested it because the first few chapters creeped me out– too realistically written. I did read and enjoy his first book though, and I hope you do like it.

Looks like you’ve been reading some great books and your new books look promising as well. The Kind Worth Killing sounds fantastic- I’ll keep that one in mind for my next thriller. Happy reading, Mary!

Your new books look good. I just couldn’t get into the Backman book. In the minority there!

Hi Mary,
A great package of books this week, but I didn’t really need to think about the one I would choose as my ‘must read’, so ‘The Kind Worth Killing’ is heading for my list!
I can’t resist a good thriller!
Thanks for sharing, I hope that you enjoy all your books and that you had a great July 4th 🙂
