Blog Tour: You All Grow Up and Leave Me by Piper Weiss

April 19, 2018 by Ann Marie 10 Comments

Welcome to my stop on the blog tour for You All Grow Up and Leave Me. I was immediately drawn in by the blurb and cover. The true crime buff in me couldn't resist this book about a young women's experience with Gary Wilensky, a child predator who preyed on the young of Manhattan's elite families in the 1990's.

Review: The Girls in the Picture by Melanie Benjamin

December 15, 2017 by Ann Marie 16 Comments

I really enjoyed The Swans of Fifth Avenue and started getting excited about The Girls in the Picture as soon as it was announced. In fact, it was the book I was most excited about receiving at Book Expo 2017. Melanie Benjamin was as much a delight in person, at her in-booth signing, as she is on her social media accounts.
