Reconnaissance by Tara FT Sering is a chick-lit novel. It is basically a woman’s way from being engaged to completely broken. She tries to find a way to mend her broken heart. It is like a guide for other women who go through break-ups and how they should be able to handle it. There are actual steps in the novel on how you can recover. It is a very detail book and while you are reading, it is as if you are the woman actually going through the break-up. You see it as if it were your point of view.

Plenty of women can relate to this book because a lot have been in love and have also been hurt and you need your friends to help you move on. The novel is like the book “Internet for Dummies” or “Break-Up 101”. It helps women a lot because it lets them know that they are not alone. That others go through it and they do move on and survive from the pain. And though at times it takes years to find another man to make you feel whole again sometimes it takes less than that.

Smaller and Smaller Circles by F.H. Batacan is a crime novel. It is very interesting. Quite a good read. It is just like the television show “CSI”. The author writes the novel with details that will still leave you guessing and make you want to read on till the very end of the book. Though there may be some parts of the book where it may be dull and seem inappropriate to what the novel is really about but overall it was still a pretty interesting read.

I would never have assumed in the beginning that the free dentist would be the killer. My guess would be on Father Emil for he is the one who is actually with the children practically all the time. And who would have guessed that priests would be the ones to actually solve the case? The novel truly gives a different point of view of all priests. It shows that priests are not just about God that they too may have studied something different before they came to be a priest. That they had something else planned for their lives but God called on to them more.
