Lord Archer is back with a bang!
Lord Jeffrey Archer is back with a bang! Doing what he does best. Writing fiction with revenge and justice as the major themes of his novel. I have not been as lucky as some as to meet this Lord in person. But I'm sure it would be an amazing experience just to hear ...

Another must-read for just about anyone
This book, and its partner "I'll Fly Away" by the same author, is at times both tough and uplifting. These are essays that women have worked on in a writing class inside the prison. They are their personal stories, which usually reveal so much about their ...

A lot going on
Lots of plots and sub-plots. Swain ties them all together in excellent fashion. Just the right mix of cop dishonesty and helpful citizens. Buster is a hoot. Eagerly awaiting the next Carpenter installment

AWESOME!
I purchased this book for my husband and he had written me several times quoting passages from it and told me he wished I had a copy so we could discuss it together. With that said, I purchased an additional copy and read it in one day. My son walked by and saw and ...

The Red Scarf
Kate Furnivall
Berkley Trade

Magnificent!
An absolute masterpiece from Kate Furnivall--hands down the best book I've read all summer. I read the first page sitting a Borders cafe, and didn't put it down until I'd finished the final chapter. Anyone who appreciates intricate, delightful storytelling and ...

WARNING! Don't Read This Unless You Are Already Rich!

Resistance: A Frenchwoman's Journal of the War
Agnes Humbert
Bloomsbury USA
, 2008
Heart-wrenching
Heart-wrenching and totally mesmerizing. I was completely engrossed, especially because it is all so real, all the mundane details, and all the big historical events. I didn't find a single moment where the story dragged. Completely engrossed by this book--highly ...

The Rape of Nanking: The Forgotten Holocaust of World War II
Iris Chang
Penguin (Non-Classics)
, 1998
An Emotive, Powerful and Well-Researched Piece
I had known about this book for quite some time, but only got around to reading it recently. You need quite a bit of mental fortitude to get through such a book; it is graphic in the extreme. I stealed myself for the effort, but got quite upset by about page 80. The ...

The Gulag Archipelago Volume 1: An Experiment in Literary Investigation (P.S.)
Aleksandr I. Solzhenitsyn
Harper Perennial Modern Classics
, 2007
The best book I have read in years! A real eye-opener.
For any who have any nostalgia for the Soviet Union, this book should put it to rest. This book is hard to categorize; it is more than one man's opinion, but less than an objective history. It is, as Solzhenitsyn puts it, "an experiment in literary investigation": a ...
