I will be starting this one today, my first by Sophie Littlefield
Book Summary
Jen Glass has worked hard to achieve the ideal life: a successful career, a beautiful home in an affluent suburb of Minneapolis, a seemingly perfect family. But inside the Glass house, everything is spinning out of Jen's control. Her marriage to her husband, Ted, is on the brink of collapse; her fifteen-year-old daughter grows more distant each day; and her five-year-old son barely speaks a word. Jen is on the verge of breaking, but nothing could have prepared her for what is to come….
On an evening that was supposed to be like any other, two men force their way into the Glasses' home, but what begins as a common robbery takes an even more terrifying turn. Held hostage in the basement for more than forty-eight hours, Jen and Ted must put aside their differences if they have any hope of survival. They will stop at nothing to keep their family safe—even if it means risking their own lives. A taut and emotional tale of a family brought together by extraordinary forces, House of Glass is a harrowing exploration of the lengths a mother will go to protect her children, and the power of tragedy to teach us what truly matters.
I completed and am working on review, maybe this week
Last week I reviewed these two
Personal Note
We move into our new house in April so we flew to NC to come to Furniture Land South, OMG, what an amazing experience. I totally recommend for anyone decorating their home with all new furniture.

And if you watch the show Tanked, the fish tank they did looks great in person too.
I'm planning on reading the House of Glass next week, I hope you enjoy it

House of Glass looks really good!
ReplyDeleteYou must have found some great deals to make it worth your time to fly to NC to buy furniture! We live in SC and I have never heard of FurnitureLand before.
Enjoy the shopping.

ReplyDeleteYes N.C. is the furniture capitol of the US :) How exciting, soon enough you'll be in. Time flies I remember you sharing pics and now it'll be a reality.
ReplyDeleteI'm still reading Very Valentine. Books take me longer unless it's the book club choice, them I read non-stop so I'm not sitting there like a ninny when discussion starts ;) It's a sweet book.
