Book Hunt: Jodi Picoult

Saw this book suggestion article on my facebook newsfeed.  The list is for Jodi Picoult fans.  I think I've probably read one of her books but I can't remember anymore which one.

I'm always on the look out for new books to read and I like that this list are of bestseller authors.  But I'm bookmarking this list for now as I am nowhere near finishing my latest Book Haul.

iLove

Title: iLove (Down the Rabbit Hole)

Author: Elaine Fox

Genre: Romace

Time: unfinished

The third novella under the Down The Rabbit Hole anthology.  I wasn’t a fan of the second novella, Alice and the Earl in Wonderland.  And I’m not feeling anything with this one, too.  As short as these novellas are, I think I should cut my losses with this book and find something else to read.

Alice and the Earl in Wonderland

Title: Alice and the Earl in Wonderland (Down the Rabbit Hole)

Don't Judge Me, I'm Not a Book

Saw this on my facebook feed.  Another take on the saying, "Don't Judge a Book By Its Cover."  Pretty cool idea, as sometimes I do turn away a book if the cover isn't interesting enough.

Book Hunt: Melania Trump: The Inside Story

so this showed up on my facebook wall today... it's a pretty interesting article.. Donald Trump has been front and center in the news lately with his bid for the presidential candidacy.. quite ironic that with his very vocal and controversial stance on immigration when his mother and 2 wives are immigrants themselves that as the article says, "If he's as concerned as he says he is by all the "people that are from all over and they're killers and rapists and they're coming into this country," he might consider building a wall around his pants."

But as the article is titled, Who is Melania Trump?, it piqued my curiosity.  I don't really know much about her, only that she was a former model who married Trump... she wasn't exactly a household name model like Gisele Bundchen or Adriana Lima so she had this "Russian-Mail-Order-Bride" vibe to her..

It's fascinating coz she could be the next First Lady of the United States.  So who is she??  Is she a dumb bimbo who got lucky and latched on to a really rich old dude?  Or is she really an intelligent, cunning gold digger playing the long con, hoping to outlive the really rich old dude?  Or is this really a love match?  She sounds like one of those Jackie Collins characters with sketchy pasts who overcame obstacles and now living it up in luxurious houses in Park Avenue.

The article mentions an unauthorized biography of Melania entitled Melania Trump: The Inside Story written by Bojan Požar and Igor Omerza that I am soo itching to get my hands on..
