Digging In by Loretta NyhanMy rating: 5 of 5 stars
We all have love and loss in our lives and Loretta Nyhan writes about both with grace and humor. Paige Moresco is the main character and the loss of her husband 2 years ago is at the heart of the story. That alone could be the entire plot but Nyhan peoples the story with additional characters who each have suffered some loss. Some have soldiered on and some are stuck in the past. I loved the gardening probably because that is my form of therapy and I know how effective it is. Mary Robinette Kowal does the narration and she does a great job of matching her voice to the emotions in the story. While there is sadness looks for moments of laugh out loud humor as well.
Emergent by Lance ErlickMy rating: 3 of 5 stars
I have followed the Android Chronicles from the first book and watched Synthia Cross change and grow. The plot has kept her on the run for the entire series and with Emergent she faces her last battle. I wondered how this would end and if Synthia would even survive. She is very smart and using her brain and the programs she has completed for herself she arrives at a interesting solution. She is still around and she is still watching to make sure there are no other androids to cause trouble in the world. A nice ending when it looked like it was not possible.
I received a free copy of the book in return for an honest review.
