Book Review: Foe by Ian Reid

This book was given to me by a friend. Supposedly it's a page turner. But....

After reading this novel about domestic relationships, interaction came across more of repetitive actions, dullness, stale, and boring living. Found it strange, rut couldn't be shaken, only to have a "replacement" triggered some action to change things in someone's way of life.

I'd give it 4 stars. next.

Book Review: The Art Forger by B.A. Shapiro

A brief assessment after reading this novel, not surprised, predictable in the world of art industry where one so much as wants to be accomplished and successful as a reputable artist , and end up not making a dent in this competitive field. I'm not surprised, but it was worth a read and being drawn into this world of art collection , and get a glimpse of their dealings. It was a smart and engaging book, wish I had more time to really get lost in this novel. It ended too soon. Hope to read the next book from B.A. Shapiro .
