The Quilter's Kitchen: An Elm Creek Quilts Novel with Recipes (Elm Creek Quilts Novel)

Jennifer Chiaverini

Simon & Schuster, 2008

Enjoyed it, with low expectations
I liked it, but I read these reviews in advance so I knew what to expect. Anna has become one of my favorite characters, so it was fun to get a little more insight into her background and passions (plus some tantalizing speculation about Jeremy???) It was a nice ...

Love the One You're With

Emily Giffin

St. Martin's Press, 2008

4.5 stars
I docked this book a half-star because I didn't like how they used a pseudonym for Bono (Drake is obviously supposed to be Bono). I feel like if you're going to use a real-life star as a model, might as well use the real person! That said, it is a minor quibble in ...

The Jewel of Medina

Sherry Jones

Beaufort Books, Inc., 2008

Captivating read
I just finished "Jewel of Medina" and found it a quick-paced and captivating read. It's a wonderful window into the history and life of Aisha. I think it the uproar over this novel is uncalled for and unfortunate. "Jewel" will only encourage readers to learn more ...

How to Heal a Broken Heart in 30 Days: A Day-by-Day Guide to Saying Good-bye and Getting On With Your Life

Howard Bronson, Mike Riley

Broadway, 2002

Simplistic Title, Substantive Book
I thought this would be an easy read. Boy, was I wrong. Well, it *was* easy to read because it is very clearly written, and very direct and focused. It took me longer than expected to read because the SUBSTANCE of the book is so compelling. The chapters and ...

Girl With Curious Hair

David Foster Wallace

W. W. Norton & Company, 1996

DFW, Fiction and DFW and Fiction
Okay, so here's the deal w/ DFW: the guy is extremely intelligent. he is also overtly aware of his intelligence and displays it all over the place. this bothers people. some things to remember and know about DFW: he was a philo. major as an undergrad; his first book ...

Women Who Run with the Wolves

Clarissa Pinkola Estes

Ballantine Books, 1996

Gathering the bones
This book found me as my mother lay dying in the next room. I was just walking around her house and I came to the bookshelf and looked up and there it was, the title just jumped out at me. I picked it up and started reading it and it was one of the most eerie ...

The Nonrunner's Marathon Guide for Women: Get Off Your Butt and On with Your Training

Dawn Dais

Seal Press, 2007

Highly Recommended Fun!
I finished this book the day after it arrived. So funny, so inspiring. This author freely admits that she was committed to laziness and yet finished a marathon. (albeit in pain!) This is truly more of a memoir than a training manual, but it should inspire you to get ...
