Blood Defense by Marcia Clark

Audio
Read by Emily Bauer
8.5 hours

Thirteen year old girl goes missing.  Was she abducted?  Told from the point of view of her best friend, Lizzie, also 13, who watches how the event affects her friends family.

I found the story a little creepy and the narrator a tad annoying, but not so bad I couldn't listen.

Something Borrowed by Emily Giffin

Lifelong friends in love with the same man, who is engaged to one and cheating on her with her best friend.  Who even wants this guy?

I like the writing style, but not really the story.  Narrator did a good job.

The Secrets of Midwives by Sally Hepworth

Three generations of midwives (grandmother, mother, daughter) each with her own secrets.

I really liked this book in the beginning.  The second half about the father of Neva's baby was a little hard to swallow.  Mostly, the grandmother's secret was the most interesting part of the book.
