Book Chat -2/25/2022

Let’s dive right in: 

The President is Missing by James Patterson and Bill Clinton 
Someone is planning a major cyberattack on the US and the President has to work behind the scenes to try to figure out how to stop it. There’s also a leak coming from a very high level of the government. This attack would cripple the water and power supplies, transportation and communication systems, all manner of financial institutions, the internet, and any device that connects to it. It would plunge the US into The Dark Ages. Sadly, Russia poses a similar threat to the US and other countries.  I was entertained and a little freaked out by the book.

Black Cake by Charmaine Wilkerson
Benny and Byron’s mother has died. The estranged siblings are left with a black cake to eat “when the time is right” and a video message their mother left to share many things she didn’t have time to before she died. It was good.

Nothing to See Here by Kevin Wilson
Lillian’s friend Madison, whom she hasn’t seen since Lillian had to leave their boarding school suddenly, calls her with the promise of a job offer. Lillian learns that the job is to care for Madison’s stepchildren. Since they tend to spontaneously combust, Lillian must keep them safe and out of the public eye while their father is being vetted for a high ranking government position. I liked it.

MK out.
