Death of a Dream

Death of a Dream, a true Crime account from behind the scenes by: Paul Larosa and Ein Moriarty


True crime drama about a dream of a Broadway dancer turned into a nightmare. She was found murdered in her apartment. 2 suspects came into custody, an innocent looking yoga instructor who was her current boyfriend, and a dodgy looking housemate who was her ex-boyfriend.

The book was not as gruesome as you may think, the thorough investigation done by the police took me into my own CSI lab.

I enjoyed the book, the writer managed to bring me into the murder, the life of a dancer and the lives of her partners, family and friends.

Ratings: 7/10

I would recommend those CSI lovers to read this book along with any other more "in depth" books which may sometimes bring you straight to sleep. :)read more on Death of a Dream here

An Offer you cant refuse, by Jill Mansell

Rating: 8/10

I truly enjoyed this book. The author managed to transport me into the life of Lola, who was paid 1000 pounds to leave her then bf, Dougie as his fna fna (or ra-ra or whatever you wanna call extremely rich and stuck up) mother did not like Lola as she was not going to University, and working in a chippy. Lola is appalled by this and refuses point blank - until she discovers a terrible secret and she has no choice but to take the money and finish with Dougie. She even managed to barter with her and got 12000 pounds.

Then, 3 years later, upon coming back to England, a twist of fate bringing Dougie and Lola back together, with Lola still loving him as much as ever, but Dougie discovers she was paid to break his heart.

She is then determine to make him forgive her and take her back. (Some annoying parts about her here). But nevertheless, I love the fact that I wanted to turn the pages even if it meant missing an hour of sleep. ;)

Seriously recommend this book! Its brilliant!

Nobody's Baby but Mine...

Title: Nobody's Baby But Mine
Author: Susan E Phillips

Book was quite predictable. Even from the start. But it got me going, the genius physics professor Dr. Jane Darlington who desperately wants a baby, but without the commitment of a father, and that won't be easy. Jane's super-intelligence made her feel like a freak when she was growing up, and she's determined to spare her own child that suffering. Which means she must find someone very special to father her child. Someone...well... stupid.

She planned with her neighbour, to bed Cal Bonner, the Chicago Stars' legendary quarterback, who seemed to be the perfect choice. But looks and attitude towards life can be deceiving. A little too late, she then learns that the good ol'boy is a lot smarter than he lets on, and he's not about to be used and abandoned by a brainy baby-mad schemer.

The plot thickens... But predictably funny. I enjoyed the book, I would rate it 6/10.

The theme of this story is the past. Try as you might, it’s always there. Like your shadow, there are times when you can lose sight of it. But trailing along, it always is. Hercule Poirot (I think) said we can always allow for one coincidence but only one. In this case, there are 2. This however, is an acceptable mistake for a brilliantly written story. In my opinion, one of her best. Warning: Parents may be disturbed by this story. Proceed with caution.
