The Memory Keeper's Daughter
Kim Edwards

Penguin (Non-Classics), 2006

Full of twists and turns
This book was full of twists and turns, and it was a good and entertaining read. It is not a book that I would call a 'quick read' because of a lot of details in the plot, but it had a very nice ending. Definitely worth reading...it had a lot of substance and touched ...

Oil!
Upton Sinclair

Penguin (Non-Classics), 2007

An enthralling, epic piece of muckraking literature
I came to "Oil!" for two reasons. One, I had recently read "The Jungle," and became enamored with Sinclair's wit and prose; two, I had watched "There Will Be Blood," and found it such a thought-provoking film that I had better read the book that inspired it. (This ...

The Art of Seduction
Robert Greene

Penguin (Non-Classics), 2003

Robert Greene's books are work their weight in diamonds.
This is the most useful book on romance I've encountered, and I'll bet I've read fifty. Greene untangles the mystery of what attracts us: a fantasy of an easier, more colorful, more exciting life. Note that we are attracted to fantasy, not reality. Unlike reality, ...
