Another great author!

His Way: The Unauthorized Biography of Frank Sinatra by Kitty Kelley

Kelley writes a good biography usually. My husband is fan of Sinatra's music so I thought I would read about his life. I heard it was very interesting.

Review: Changeless by Gail Carriger

Changeless
by Gail Carriger
Series: Parasol Protectorate, Bk 2
Publisher: Orbit
Publication Date: April 1, 2010

*Caution: Changeless is part of a series and even though I try my best to not give spoilers, some are unavoidable. 

In this second installment of the Parasol Protectorate series, Alexia Maccon (formally Tarabotti) is adjusting to her new as wife to the local Alpha, Lord Conall Maccon, and muhjah to the queen. Conall is just informed of a great malady that has made all the supernaturals in the area mortal and his investigation takes him back to his pack that he abandoned in Scotland. Now he must confront his only living descendant who he knows will ask to be changed. 

Alexia, not to be abandoned, travels after her husband and discovers many things that she never knew about him before. Because she can’t travel alone, Ivy Hisselpeny, her best friend insists on traveling with her. On top of that, Alexia’s mother has dropped off her sister, Felicity and now she is going along too!! If you know anything about these three you know it makes for a mighty entertaining ride. Also along for the ride is Madame Lefoux, the new shop owner/inventor in London. She has designed a very exceptional parasol for Alexia by request of Conall. Of course, not man or beast are safe when Alexia carries a parasol. 

Once again Gail has written an intriguing read! I love the uniqueness of her character and the commentary between them. She really left me hanging with the ending of this one and I am so glad that I own the next book in this series, Blameless! I will be moving this one up on TBR list..:D

My mouth opened for a scream that reached my throat and trembled there, but no sound came.

No one knew what I had seen, for Tom and Dick had told my mother I was in the privy when she'd asked about me.
