5/31/2023 0 Comments Orphan Island by Laurel Snyder![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() Through the precocious Jinny, Snyder ( Seven Stories Up) delivers a contemplative commentary on the transition from childhood to adolescence, and from ignorance to awareness. As Jinny teaches Ess to contribute and uphold the cryptic rules that promise chaos if broken, she begins to question the unexplained dictates, opting to take charge of her actions and destiny. It’s Jinny’s responsibility, as the elder, to care for the newly arrived Ess, despite the fact that Jinny is heartbroken over losing the previous elder, Deen, her best friend. New children are delivered to the island by a mysterious boat, and whenever one arrives, the eldest on the island takes the arrival’s place aboard the vessel to leave the only home he or she has ever known, with no knowledge of what the future holds. Jinny is the oldest of nine orphans living on an idyllic island. ![]() ![]() ![]() She only gets to keep the team if the Stars win the AFC Championship. It follows Phoebe Somerville, a New York socialite with an outrageous reputation who inherits a pro football team and a teenage half-sister when her father dies. It Had to Be You is the first in the Chicago Stars series. There is basically no wrong choice when it comings to picking up a Susan Elizabeth Phillips novel, but here are my suggestions for where to start. Some of them seem a bit dated now (she’s been publishing for over thirty years) but they are still books I return to again and again. Equal parts funny and romantic, I always fall in love with her quirky leading ladies and macho, misunderstood leading men. She also won the groups Lifetime Achievement Award. While Nora Roberts’s novels skew towards the serious and suspenseful, Susan Elizabeth Phillips is known as the “Queen of Romantic Comedy.” Furthermore, Phillips is the only five-time winner of the Romance Writers of America Favorite Book of the Year. When it comes to contemporary romance, I’ve always considered the two masters to be Nora Roberts and Susan Elizabeth Phillips. ![]() |
