The Road (Oprah's Book Club)
Cormac McCarthy

Vintage Books, 2007

A Fantastic Read

Hold Tight
Harlan Coben

Dutton Adult, 2008

Coben is Back on Track

As a long time fan of this writer, his last two works, Promise Me and The Woods were found to be disappointing. With this work, I was able to see a return to the writing that had been so good. The topic is oe of concern to nimerous parents today and the writer is able to skillfully juggle numerous ...
