| I'd call it FUNset and FINE!,
This review is from: Sunset and Vine (Paperback) ,,,super fine, that is. Sunset & Vine is one of those wonderfully done books that you pick up, read a few paragraphs and then can't put down. I had set aside this weekend to read this book and that's exactly what happened to me. The phone would ring and I wouldn't answer it, the doorbell rang and I slumped lower into the chair so as not to be seen. NO one was going to interrupt my rapt attention to this book. I found myself barely stopping to cook and when I did finally make my dinner, the book was still in my hand. I loved how every character was one you could actually "see" and feel. The author, Louis Briel, has a real talent with the turn of a word and the twist of a phrase to keep you hooked until the very last page. Oh, but when I read that last page, I jumped up and said, "Nooo, this can't be the end! I want more!" So what does that tell me? It tells me that Louis Briel did a rip roaring job with Sunset & Vine and also tells me that it is ripe for a sequel. I am crossing my fingers and hope that's what comes about.So, dear readers of this review, if you're looking for a terrific, fast paced, engrossing novel with some very unexpected twists, this book is for you. Once you read it, I can guarantee that you'll be recommending it to others. It is a 10! |
| Thoroughly Enjoyed This Book,
This review is from: Sunset and Vine (Paperback) I bought this to take on vacation this month. Enjoyed it from beginning to end. Always something going on between and around the several characters to keep you reading, and I would be happy to see a sequel! |
