This book is about a football player who has been severely injured while playing in a USA league. After he recovers, no team here will hire him. He finds a team in Italy. This story is about the difficulties in the way the game is played, they play for love of the game, not money. He also has to adjust to a new way of life with people he cannot understand and they cannot understand him. There is a love interest, but the story is football. This is not like most Grisham books I have read. More human interest. Reading level: Adult

Vendetta by Fern Michaels
This is a story of seven young women who have had really bad things happen to them. They band together with Myra, an older woman who lost her pregnant daughter to a hit and run driver. This is a story of love and support for each other, but also about revenge. This story deals with the driver who killed Myra’s daughter. While some of it was a little unsettling to me, it is well written and held my interest until the end. There is a book for each of the women and I plan to read them all. I recommend Vendetta. Reading level: Adult
