The Terror Dream: Fear and Fantasy in Post-9/11 America
Susan Faludi

Metropolitan Books, 2007

It's time for all of us to wake up
This book has arrived just in time for the 2008 election. Along with the PBS program, "Bush's War", this should be required reading for all voters. We can change the future but we must understand the past. Thank you again Susan for your excellent analysis.

The Hunger Games
Suzanne Collins

Scholastic Press, 2008

I devoured it in one sitting.
I didn't really have high expectations for The Hunger Games. The blurb sounded interesting, but you never can tell with young adult fiction, particularly in the science fiction genre. Trust me: I've been burned before. I was pleasantly surprised to find a ...
  
  











  



  
The Family Under the Bridge
Natalie Savage Carlson

HarperTrophy, 1989

Great little novel
I didn't read this book until I was a mom, and that's a pity, because I would have loved it when I was a kid. I find the ending, where the family is provided with a home, particularly fine. Their new home is only a cellar apartment, but you know it is going to be a ...
