The Pact by Jodi Picoult

meh.

A Duty to the Dead by Charles Todd

 A good, solid mystery.  I'll definitely look into the other ones in this series.  (And it fed my Downton Abbey fixation, although the setting isn't quite as rich.)  (And it is still only $1.99 in the Kindle store.)

His Majesty, Queen Hatshepsut by Dorothy Carter

I read this to the boys.  It was OK.

Maine by J. Courtney Sullivan

 Decent.

The Language of Flowers by Vanessa Diffenbaugh

meh.

The Broken Teaglass by Emily Arsenault

 Clever, quirky, and unique--I really enjoyed reading this book.

Winston's War by Michael Dobbs

 Decent, but kind of confusing.

The Sublime Engine by Stephen Amidon

 I read this because Simon was reading it for school; I really liked it.  It is an excellent combination of cultural and medical history.

Every Last One by Anna Quindlen

Very good fluff.

Cloud Atlas by David Mitchell

 Very unusual.  I don't know if I liked it.

Psychopath Test by Jon Ronson

 Quirky and interesting.

1969 by Rob Kirkpatrick

 Loved it.

The Book of Mormon Girl by Joanna Brooks

 The writing and sentiment absolutely took my breath away; I was completely unprepared for how amazing this book would be.
