I read constantly and have a huge collection. This is my way of keeping track of what I have read. It is also a way to reach out and open up discussion on what others thought of the same book. I tend to have trouble finding new authors or hearing about good reads, so would always love your input or suggestions.

Girl in a Spin by Clodagh Murphy
****4 stars
This is my second book I have read by Murphy. After reading The Disengagement Ring, I went out and ordered this one. I was by no means disappointed. Her characters are all so likable and real. I truly enjoyed this book and found myself sad it had ended. I look forward to future reads by this author :)
Book Jacket Summary:
Jenny Hannigan might be a good-time party girl but all she secretly craves is a life of domestic bliss and solid respectability – worlds away from her troubled upbringing back home in Ireland.
So when she crashes into the arms of Richard Allam – the young, handsome, recently separated politician hotly tipped to lead his party to victory in the upcoming election – she thinks she’s found exactly what she is looking for.
But Jenny isn’t exactly politician’s-wife material so Richard recruits the intensely private, charismatic publicist Dev Tennant to ‘spin’ Jenny to the Party . . . and the public.
As the election gathers momentum, it turns out that Jenny has more than one skeleton in her closet and Dev is working overtime to try to keep them there.
And suddenly Jenny isn’t sure what she wants anymore ...
