Adventures of Huckleberry Finn
Mark Twain

Prestwick House Inc., 2005

Ole Huck
You'll notice pretty quickly when you pick this up that Huck doesn't spell too good and his grammar isn't so hot either. But if you look a little more closely, you find that he sure knows how to use the semi-colon, and his sentence structure is picture perfect. Mr. ...
  
  











  



  
Living Dead in Dallas (Southern Vampire Mysteries, Book 2)
Charlaine Harris

Ace Books, 2002

Maenads and Vampires and Fanatics, oh my!
Okay, not as good as the first book in the series, I admit. Still, a pretty good story. Plenty of action, and the romance was toned down a bit, so it didn't so much distract from the main storyline. I know, I know, plenty of people like those bits, but I like my ...
  
  











  



  
From Dead to Worse (Southern Vampire Mysteries, Book 8)
Charlaine Harris

Ace Hardcover, 2008

Death and Destruction, but Life Goes On in Bon Temps!
Sookie continues to deal with vampires and their hunters, with weres and her troublesome brother, with deadly supernatural politics that mere humans shouldn't easily survive. But the one thing Sookie is, is a survivor. After the big explosion in the last book that ...
  
  











  



  
Animal, Vegetable, Miracle: A Year of Food Life (P.S.)
Barbara Kingsolver, Camille Kingsolver, ...

Harper Perennial, 2008

Eat me!
Barbara Kingsolver's lyric prose is so fun to read, and it's good for you too! It's heartening to see the locavore movement get such attention on a national scale. Maybe American food culture isn't doomed after all. The inserts from her family are entertaining, but ...
  
  











  



  
Club Dead (Southern Vampire Mysteries, Book 3)
Charlaine Harris

Ace Books, 2003

Give Me More Sookie
Simply addictive. Once you've finished you will be looking for your next Sookie fix. You'll feel like a starved vampire if you start reading this series.
  
  











  



  
Dead Until Dark (Southern Vampire Mysteries, Book 1)
Charlaine Harris

Ace Books, 2001

First Book of this kind I've read!!
Grabs you from the beginning and you can't put it down! I have since ordered the rest of the series! Shared the first one with my friend and she is pushing me to finish the next book in the series because she can't wait to get her hands on it. Never read this venue ...
  
  











  



  
Off Season
Anne Rivers Siddons

Grand Central Publishing, 2008

Her best book ever!!
I've read all of Siddons' books and this is her best!! A very moving story of a woman who loses the two loves in her life and how one affects the other. This is a must read for those who read Anne Rivers Siddons.
  
  











  



  
To Kill a Mockingbird
Harper Lee

Harper Perennial Modern Classics, 2002

Everyone's Favorite . . .
I honestly have no idea how many times I have read this book. I read it first as an assignment in the eighth grade; most recently, at the age of 41, I read it aloud to three of my children. As with the more recent readings that I recall, I choked up a bit at the end ...
  
  











  



  
Kindred (Bluestreak Black Women Writers)
Octavia E. Butler

Beacon Press, 2004

An Excellent Introduction to this Writer
Unfortunately, this inspired writer recently died. I encourage ALL to review her works. This novel was my introduction to Octavia E. Butler, and I would advise any enthusiasts of speculative and science fiction to investigate it, and her multiple works!
  
  











  



  
Georgia Cooking in an Oklahoma Kitchen: Recipes from My Family to Yours
Trisha Yearwood

Clarkson Potter, 2008

Good Old Recipes Like Mom Used to Make!
This would be a great cookbook for the new bride or a daughter just starting to cook. The recipes are pretty basic and mimicked a lot I had in my recipe files, but that must mean they are GOOD recipes! The brownies were very good, but don't over bake or they dry out. I ...
  
  











  



  
Dead as a Doornail (Southern Vampire Mysteries, Book 5)
Charlaine Harris

Ace, 2006

Sookie Stackhouse rides again!
Charlaine Harris has created some of the most interesting characters you'll ever hope to meet in her Southern Vampire series starring Sookie Stackhouse and a supporting cast as varied as any you could imagine. I was hooked after the first one and eagerly await each ...

Great vampire series
Definitely Dead (Southern Vampire Mysteries, Book 6) Charlaine Harris really knows how to write a book, if you like your vampire series with a bit of humor you will like these books, if you like your mysteries with a bit of what we call "Woo Woo" (in other words ...
  
  











  



  
Roll of Thunder, Hear My Cry (Puffin Modern Classics) (Puffin Modern Classics)
Mildred D. Taylor

Puffin, 2004

My Favorite Book
This was my favorite book in the world as a child. I read it over and over, beginning I think in the 3rd grade. It was deeply moving and probably shaped who I am today.
  
  











  



  
A Great and Terrible Beauty (The Gemma Doyle Trilogy)
Libba Bray

Delacorte Books for Young Readers, 2005

A terrible great read!!!!
I was finishing up with the Twilight series and wanted more. I bought this book a long time ago and was waiting to read it. I was hooked from the start! I love English history as well so I knew I'd enjoy it, but if it's mixed with mystery, magic and suspence as well as ...
  
  











  



  
All Together Dead (Southern Vampire Mysteries, Book 7)
Charlaine Harris

Ace, 2008

All Together Dead
This book was every bit as good as the others, maybe better. I just love Sookie Stackhouse, hope the series never ends.
