Samantha is a professional seductress and con artist with a heart of gold. If she talked about her work, she’d tell you she only pilfers organs for medical research and that she only takes one kidney, and she only steals those kidneys from dishonest people. It’s hell on her social life. Abe is the doctor and Sam's partner in crime. He isn’t much of a criminal. Except for the kidney stealing. But he’s using that money to fund his research that he anticipates will be able to cure diabetes. So, all for a good cause...? You decide. Of course, it's hell on his social life.

It’s been 10 years since a group of college friends made a vow: that the first to get rich would rent a boat and invite the others on a cruise. Now, the friends find themselves marooned at a luxurious hotel on the Amalfi Coast in Italy. While their boat is being repaired, they can’t help but observe the daily routine of a fellow hotel guest - a mysterious, white-bearded stranger who sits on the veranda each night and smokes one cigarette, sometimes two.

There are parts of our lives which are predestined, and no matter how hard we try, we can’t change what will happen - what must happen. Andrew Manners understood that better than most, but it didn’t change how he felt about his past or his desire to change it. Even angels have regrets, and after living two mortal lifetimes in his angelic form, and with countless other years ahead, he would give it all up to be with the man he’d loved and lost for just one short lifetime together.

In the best-selling vein of memoirists Jeannette Walls and Frank McCourt, the award-winning author delivers her addicting breakout novel - a mesmerizing memoir epic destined to become a classic. Set in transient 1970s Las Vegas, Overlay is the fighting-to-come-of-age story of a resilient child born into a cycle of alcoholism and abandonment. The author develops a powerful sense of self-preservation in contrast to the fallen adults entrusted with her care.

4.5 Stars - Gripping
City of Angels is a young adult book that crosses genres with historical fiction and mystery and has underlying dark themes that may be disturbing to some people (who aren’t me). For those who like trigger warnings, I would caution people with trauma relating to kidnapping, SA, or abuse suffered as a child.
This is not my typical genre, so although I’ve had this book for several months, it took until a couple days ago before I was in the mood to start it. I’m glad I finally did. City of Angels was captivating. I didn’t want to turn it off.
This book is well written and the characters are well developed. The pacing was perfect, and I love that it kept me guessing for most of the book about what was happening and who the “bad guy” would be. The twist was really good too. Aptly named, City of Angels is set in Los Angeles, California. It takes place in the early 1990s, around the time of the Rodney King trial and verdict. I appreciate that the author seemed to have researched the time period well enough that there weren’t any concerns with continuity. The main character is 17-year-old runaway, Veronica “Nikki” Black, who is originally from Chicago. We follow her as she tries to make a place for herself as she deals with her own traumas while trying to save a 12-year-old girl she met along the way.
My favorite part of this book was actually a description that the author wrote of one of the side characters who was illuminated by headlights in the fog as she stood to protect the main character from being mugged. That scene was absolutely perfect to me.
This was my first experience with this author. I can say without doubt that I would read another book by her in the future.
The narrator did a great job. She was easy to listen to and understand. I did speed up the pace a little, though, as I found the narration a bit slow for me.
I recommend this book and will likely listen to it again in the future. 4.5 Stars overall.
