The Doctors Pulaski.
This is a series about five sisters who all become doctors. Their parents are emigrants from Poland and arrive in the USA with only their hard work ethic to support them. The father becomes a cop and often works a second job and their mother often works two jobs as well. Each sister has worked as well as going to school and they are mutually supportive of each other and their younger sisters. It is set in a fictional hospital, Patience Memorial in New York City. In the first book the three older sisters are sharing an apartment and car and as the series moves along the younger sisters come to share the same apartment. This series is written by Marie Ferrarella who is one of my favorite authors.
Book1: Dr Sasha Pulaski, OB-Gyn, first meets Detective Anthony Santini when a nurse is murdered in the parking structure connected to the hospital. When a second murder takes place and she is the one to discover the body it looks like maybe someone is trying to send a message to her. Tony needs to get to the bottom of this and along the way the two of them get together for more than detective work.
This was a great mystery. The two main characters each have their own personal baggage to carry around as they work to try and solve the identity of the killer. This was a great romance as well.

Hey, Kaelee You finished
Hey, Kaelee
You finished the series & logged all five of them also. Great job.
Enjoyed reading your reviews. Did you collect all 5 of them & read them one after the other? That must be fun!

Hi Orchid
Yes I have all five books and I read them one after the other in August so finally posting the reviews now. This catches me up on all the books I have read since I started in April but now I have to decide if I want to go for some that I read before I started posting. It was a good thing to set a minichallenge for myself as I now have my backlog caught up. Are you back at work again? Did you get lots of reading done in your time off?

Yes, I am back to work. Not exceptionally busy. I had used my vacation in good ways: clean out half of a room, 2 hall closets, half of the kitchen cabinets, half of my closet. Why half? I found a box of books hidden in the back corner of my closet, 30 of those books were HQ Presents & Superromance of late 90's. I believe someone gave them to me a few years back, so I have to read them (including some comics, mysteries) instead of re-organizing/cleaning, those can wait
.
Isn't it a good feeling to have caught up on your backlog! You can always give yourself a minichallenge on the books you read before April. I will be cheering you on.
BTW, I just received the package from Olivia Gates, that's my best highlight at work today!

That's so exciting
I guess I know what you will be doing for the next while.
Getting half of anything cleaned would be more than I am getting done right at the moment. What a nice surprise to find a box of books. I would have started reading too.
We went for a long drive on Saturday through the mountains to the west of us. Had a wonderful trip and then Sunday we did some work in the gardens but now I have to get busy and make up some tomato sauce as we finally are getting some tomatos.. Frost tomorrow night so we will have to cover and hope it doesn't go to low. We are also busy putting together birthday cards in Photoshop for the ten birthdays we are getting together to celebrate this coming up Saturday. My Dh does most of the work, I just pick out the pictures to use and we both try to come up with ideas so every birthday compilation is different. Takes some thinking when there is 22 altogether.
Happy reading!

Hey, Kaelee Seems like
Hey, Kaelee
Seems like you had a very nice weekend. Yum, yum, nothing beats homemade tomato sauce. Are you going the freeze the extras? Do you also pick the green ones before the frost comes? I remember I've seen a cooking show (or maybe from a cookbook I have) to pickle green tomatoes, then deep-fried them whenever.
One day to celebrate 10 birthdays? How big is the cake? Everybody gets the chance to blow the candles? (Will the cake be edible after the candles blowing?
Just kidding.)
Okay, must go back to reading. Talk to you later. Have fun doing the birthday cards.

Ten cakes!
or maybe five or maybe cupcakes. We never know what my sister has planned until we get to the farm. There is always way to much dessert but the kids manage to get through a bit and I do too! LOL.We all go around on sugar highs. The rest of the adults let us kids indulge.
We bake green tomato slices and they are surprisingly good. We started baking them as we have been cutting way down on fried foods in our diet. We freeze the extra sauce which may or may not have diced zuchinni in it. We have to make a least one batch of Greek beans up as well. It's green beans, diced onion, diced zuchinni, diced potato, all in a tomato sauce with lots of parsley. My dh has an unexpected day off so the two of us will be working at one thing or another all day.
