What's Going On Here?
There are SO MANY wonderful book review blogs out there and I can't compete with them, that is for sure. So this is not a book review blog. This is just a way for me to organize what I have read so that I can be better at matching the right book to the right person. The blog title comes from the brilliant mind of the most talented woman who ever lived, Ms. Judy Garland. The full quote is, "Always be a first-rate version of yourself, instead of a second-rate version of someone else." That is what I hope to do here and in ever aspect of my life.

Another Yet-to-be-Published
Great book I got from netgalley.com. Listening for Lucca is a deeply moving story of Sienna and her family and a ghost from the past. Lucca has stopped talking and her family has made a move with the hopes that he will start speaking again. The move from Brooklyn to Maine isn't easy and Sienna seems to be possessed or obsessed with a brother and sister who lived in the house decades before her family moved in. Somehow the brother and sister from the past are tied to Sienna and Lucca in the present day. This is a very different, very original and real story, despite the supernatural elements. Great stuff. Introspective, but a decent amount of action and a good mystery that will keep you turning the pages.
