Shattered Dreams by Irene Spencer


I saw this at Costco, but didn't want to spend the money so I went to Orem Library and borrowed it. I honestly couldn't put it down. It actually confirmed every assumption I had about the life of a polygamist wife. The author does a really good job of getting accross her feelings of lonliness. At the end she expresses her current religious views just a little, which are askew, but still a great book!

Evening Class

I really enjoyed this book. It's about all the participants of an evening Italian-language class. Maeve Binchy is a great storyteller. I really cared about all the people and when I had to return the book to the library I considered keeping it and paying a late fee, but with the craziness of the holidays I took it back and then got it again when I had more time. I just couldn't leave off not knowing what happened to all the characters.
