    Title: Dashing Through The Snow
    Author: Mary HIggins Clark, Carol Higgins Clark
    Review: If you like a good mystery that is a quick read, this is the book. It's only 226 pages, but reads fast. Mary HIggins Clark and her daughter have done other books that are just as good.

    Title: What Is Mine
    Author: Anne Holt
    Review: A mystery that takes place in Norway and is about children getting kidnapped. A little slow at the beginning, but it does pick up and really pulls you in as to who was the culprit.

    Title: The Wednesday Wars
    Author: Gary Schmidt
    Review: This book has a slow start but the plot came together at the ene emotionally. It was a bit like a soap opera without the mini plot points intersecting enough to hold it together. The main character is mature and questioning what his role in his family and his school. It is a thinkers book, not for a reluctant reader.

    Title: Matters of the Heart
    Author: Danielle Steel
    Review: Typical Steel book - girl meets boy, they have romance then troubles, split up, girl finds happiness on her own. Simple summer reading.
