The Private Patient (Adam Dalgliesh Mysteries)
P.D. James
Knopf, 2008
Ageless talent in modern times
Don't get me wrong; P. D. James has written characters specific to some of her books that linger in my memory to this day, years after having read about them in one of her earlier stories. Even the most minor of her characters practically walks off the page in front ...

The Living Dead
Stephen King, Joe Hill, ...
Night Shade Books, 2008
An Amazing Compendium
There are a bunch of good compendiums of short stories that have to do with horror topics, and even a few dedicated to zombies (the editor of The Living Dead even goes out of his way to list a few). But The Living Dead is probably one of the best rounded 'theme' ...

Sherry Argov
Adams Media, 2002
Every woman should own a copy of this book!
Yes, every woman! Come on, have you ever felt like you betrayed yourself a little bit when you agreed with what the guy was saying just to be liked?? Especially when this 'prince charming' is out of your life in 3 months time and you realise that he wasn't worth even a ...

John Adams
David McCullough
Simon & Schuster, 2008
Outstanding Read
This is the type of book that destroys the belief that history is mostly boring. McCullough has a gift for making history real. Best book of any type I've read in a while.

Serenity, Vol. 2: Better Days
Joss Whedon
Dark Horse, 2008
A huge improvement over the previous Serenity series
A few years ago fans of FIREFLY/SERENITY were given a rather lack luster series called THOSE WE LEFT BEHIND. There isn't a great deal of narrative squeeze space right now in the Serenity universe. The reason is that Joss Whedon and his stars still hope to make ...

Dilbert 2.0: 20 Years of Dilbert
Scott Adams
Andrews McMeel Publishing, 2008
Showcased Genius
Given the treatment you would expect of the collected volumes of Shakespeare, this is a large slip-cased collection of Scott Adams' genius.
While you do need to check the dimensions and weight, this should be a must have for any Dilbert fan. The cartoons and the ...

Dilbert: 2009 Day-to-Day Calendar (Dilbert)
Scott Adams
Andrews McMeel Publishing, 2008
Brilliant for anyone who's ever worked in an office!
If you're new to Dilbert, he's a small guy who works in a highly bureaucratic white collar office. The comics satirize office politics beautifully. The humor is similar to the TV series The Office, but Dilbert was the original.
I give the Dilbert day-to-day ...

Samuel Adams: A Life
Ira Stoll
Free Press, 2008
Even better than the beer.
This is a must-buy for anyone who loved McCullough's John Adams or Isaacson's Benjamin Franklin. Ira Stoll puts Sam Adams back where he belongs, front and center with the great founding fathers. But "Samuel Adams, A Life" is not merely a work of history, it is a ...

Scratch Beginnings: Me, $25, and the Search for the American Dream
Adam W. Shepard
Collins, 2008
Great American Story!
This is a great story for today's youth and older Americans as well. Sheppard works hard, sacrifices and lives smart. In less than half the time he set for his goal he reaches it. One could argue that he is a gifted individual and others couldn't do what he did. He ...
