#41 - No One There by Ava Strong
Genre - Mystery

Book one of a series, easy to read. I give it a 3/5 only because there wasn't a lot of depth to it, otherwise the story line was good. To me, it feels like she was just churning it out. I'm not interested in reading the rest of the series.

#34 The Boyfriend by Frieda McFadden. The end was kind of stupid. Good story up to the end.

27. The Frozen River by Ariel Lawton. I can’t say enough good things about this book. It is.historical fiction based on the life of Martha Ballard, a midwife in Maine during the end of the 18th century and her involvement/investigation of a crime. An excellent book.

A Young adult book recommended to me by a DDiL. 4.5/5

I read that also (Between Shades of Gray) and also gave it 4 1/2 stars.

#43-"Resist: A Story of D Day", Alan Katz-short, but interesting story pertaining to World War II.

#44-"The Lost Letters from Martha's Vineyard", Michael Callahan-An actress from Hollywood spends a summer on Martha's Vineyard to recover from a failed relationship, and ends up dropping out of sight from her career and starting a new life. I was attracted to this because I agree that MV can be life-altering. Her story was very interesting.
