Our Endless Numbered Days by Claire Fuller - Peggy is 8 years old when her father, a survivalist, takes her to a remote cabin in the woods. What follows is his descent into madness while she learns to cope. Told from her viewpoint after she has returned home. (Not a spoiler, you know that on the first page.) The ending was disturbing.

A Fine Romance by Candice Bergen - she loves her daughter, she's not dealing with aging well, and, imo, is rather a snob. Almost quit this one several times. This memoir begins with her marriage to Louis Malle.
2 stars

The Promise by Robert Crais - K-9 dog Maggie is back with her handler, Scott James, and this time Elvis Cole and Joe Pike get involved too. So most of the author's creations are in this book. Maggie and Scott chase a suspect to a house Elvis is staking out and come across a ruthless killer. Told from various viewpoints. I felt the author was stretching a little to find a story to involve everyone. I still like Maggie's parts the best.

Midnight Sun by Jo Nesbo - a man calling himself Ulf heads to the Arctic Circle in Norway. He's on the run from the Fisherman, a drug lord. Can he stay sane in the never ending daylight? More importantly, can he build some new relationships? Language and a smattering of sex.
4 stars
