The Memory Keeper's Daughter
Kim Edwards

Penguin (Non-Classics), 2006

Absolutely loved this book!

+ The Memory Keeper's Screw-up.

Well I'm shocked at how many have rated this book poorly and goes to show everyone has different likes in what they read. I have not been so interested in a book in so long. I could not put this down and became incredibly enthralled with each of the characters ... all for differing reasons. I ...

Salem Falls
Jodi Picoult

Washington Square Press, 2002

tantalizing

The Lemur: A Novel
Benjamin Black

Picador, 2008

Smooth oddity

I was half-way through this book in no time, came up for a breather, and thought that it was an awfully quick read. The cynical side of me wanted to ask if this were meant as made-for-movie book, sort of like McCarthy's No Country for Old Men. Maybe Banville needed to fulfill a contract or was ...

Dexter in the Dark: A Novel
Jeff Lindsay

Doubleday, 2007

Not as good as the first two but still enjoyable.

As most have said, this wasn't quite as good as the first two Dexter novels. I didn't dislike it as much as many though. Most people's biggest problem was the supernatural aspect to it. This part didn't bother me too much since it wasn't specific to any belief system that I am aware of. I think ...
