"Won't this be fun?" My mother squeezed me with
painful enthusiasm. "Two whole months living right next door to each
other. You and me. We'll be like best girlfriends."
Ripped from the Pages is another outstanding
mystery from Kate Carlisle. She combines Brooklyn's eccentric family, the
bookbinding profession, a little about wineries and wine, and a story that
takes readers back in history. I loved learning about the French,
their family artifacts and their flight for safety during World War II. The
author has a very descriptive way of describing the hidden room and the
priceless treasure it holds. She always has a way of drawing you into the story
via her words. It is easy to get lost in this book and feel that you are right
there helping Brooklyn solve the mysteries. I have always loved the way the
author keeps this series fresh by moving the location around, introducing new
characters and bringing back characters we haven't seen in a while.
This entry allows us to learn more about “Guru Bob” and
the other members of the “commune” known as Dharma. All of the characters are
so engaging, you can’t help but feel like one of the family, and who can resist
Derrick. I really enjoyed the events
that unfolded at the end of the book and can’t wait for the next adventure.
