This is one of my very favorite books ever. In fact I've gone through 2 copies already I read it so often. I'll keep buying it because each time I read it I find it more fascinating. I would highly recommend this book.

The Ivy Tree
All of Mary Stewart's works are good. This is one of her best mysteries.
Debunked!: Conspiracy Theories, Urban Legends, and Evil Plots of the 21st Century
Richard Roeper
Chicago Review Press, 2008
A Refreshing Island in an Ocean of Drivel
Roeper's "Debunked" is a witty, no-holds barred look at a few of the sacred cows of conspiracy theorists and believers in urban legends. Happily, he's an equal opportunity critic, skewering the icons of the left (Rosie O'Donnell and Oprah Winfrey) with as much verve ...

William Gurstelle
Chicago Review Press, 2001
Just Plain Fun
Being a parent and a science teacher, I really love this book. It takes me back to my younger years when it was fun to launch anything more than 10 feet and still have all of your hair intact. What fun this book is! Gurstelle is great!
The Winthrop Woman: A Novel
Anya Seton
Chicago Review Press, 2006
A city on the hill?
This book is a fascinating take on the origins of colonial America. I normally do not read historical fiction set in the United States. I selected this book because of my admiration for Anya Seton's Katherine and Avalon. This heavily fact-centered novel starts out in ...

I'm with the Band: Confessions of a Groupie
Pamela Des Barres
Chicago Review Press, 2005
Entertaining, fun, and informative!!
I got this book for Christmas from my mother, who knows that I have a great love for classic rock and roll. I couldn't wait to read it, and it did not disappoint in the least. This book wasn't a tell all, but a look into what it was like to be part of the "scene". ...
The Eagle and the Raven
Pauline Gedge
Chicago Review Press, 2007
Truly well written and fascinating.
I truly enjoyed this novel and could hardly put it down. It is very detailed and the characters are immensely ferocious.
Devil Water
Anya Seton
Chicago Review Press, 2007
Another great Seton novel..
Anya Seton's books never fail to impress me. She weaves stories that are intricate and beautifully written. Also, the research she has done to produce these novels is astonishing. This book is perhaps one of her best.
On Stage: Theater Games and Activities for Kids
Lisa Bany-Winters
Chicago Review Press, 1997
Great Mix of Activities
I love how all of the different skills are addressed in separate sections of the book. There are many, many games and tasks included in each so the variety never ends. I use this book as a warm up during the first couple of drama sessions and then as a filler when I ...
Jubilee Trail
Gwen Bristow
Chicago Review Press, 2006
Great historical fiction about the trail to California and the early pioneers of the country
Living out West I've always been into the history of the Oregon trail but I never knew very much about the history off the California trial (except apparently there was assign showing the turn to Oregon and on fork was a nugget of gold and on the other was the word ...
The Egyptian: A Novel
Mika Waltari
Chicago Review Press, 2002
The Egyptian - an earthly struggle for the ethical
There are a million reviews of Waltari's work out there already, so I won't plague the internet with yet another in-depth one. I will, however, comment on what I perceive to be the central question that the book asks: "Is it better to live a life shaped by ethics ...

love this book, my #1 recommendation for friends
I loved this book. My daughter lives in NYC and everytime I'm there riding the subways I think of this book, it's so interesting. I always recommend this book to friends. It's an easy read for any age. Even my son, who hates reading, enjoyed this book.

Reymundo Sanchez
,
Sonia Rodriguez
Chicago Review Press, 2008
It was OK...
I have read both of Reymundo Sanchez books and they were great! But this book... pretty much repeated it self over and over and over again. I dont want to say too much without giving the entire book but I'll let you be the judge. I read the book in 5 days and was just ...
