True Colors by Kristin Hannah

True ColorsTrue Colors by Kristin Hannah
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

Many thanks to Donna Compton for this fantastic read!. The Grey sisters have a special bond growing up; and it is rocked when life gets in the way and sisterly love is tested again and again. The love story
between Vivi Ann and Dallas was my favorite part but I did not like it tore everyone apart. But Hannah's storytelling had me turning those pages, with suspense growing as the years go by. This is a great read and I loved the ending!

The Murder Rule by Dervla McTiernan

The Murder RuleThe Murder Rule by Dervla McTiernan
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

Great narration by Kate Orsini , Sophie Amoss , Michael Crouch as I compulsively cobbled this mystery, thriller about a law student who has a vendetta against a man in prison and now coming up for a hearing on The Innocence Project. I loved all the narrators as they led me through this compulsive mystery; I was not really a fan of Hannah other than her gift of being able to persuade people to let her do what she wants. But the story is compelling---when Hannah was 14 she read her mother's journals and what happened to her that summer has driven Hannah's decisions to make sure this guy stays in prison---but what happens is that Hannah is confronted by her mother's lies and manipulations as she strives to have the real story (her mother's story) come out. It takes Hannah connecting with the prisoner, Shawn (her colleague) and his mother to make her realize she has been duped and how she handles this is pure Hannah once again---and hopefully she will become the better person, she knows she can and should be.
