Books read - April 2011 + Pick of the Month

Vesper (Deviants, #1) by Jeff Sampson
The Land of Painted Caves by Jean M. Auel
The Iron Witch (The Iron Witch, #1) by Karen Mahoney
Numbers (Numbers #1) by Rachel Ward
The Chaos (Numbers #2) By Rachel Ward
Overprotected by Jennifer Laurens

Human.4 by Mike A. Lancaster
City of Fallen Angels (The Mortal Instruments, #4) by Cassandra Clare

Instead of a top pick, I'm going with my biggest disappointment.
The Land of Painted Caves (Earth's Children #6) by Jean M. Auel

This was not the book I expected and from the reviews I read at Goodreads and Amazon I know I'm not alone with my views.
I wonder if this was the series a younger Jean Auel had intended to write 30 years ago. I hope so; I want to believe she is satisfied with her work and doesn't care what anyone else thinks even with the review I wrote here.
I wish her well.
