Nevada Barr

Nevada Barr's "Winter Study"
Anna Pigeon has a Winter Study (Anna Pigeon Mysteries)rather tumultous series of experiences in this book - more than "usual" but held interest and was a 'good read' --

Anna Karenina (Oprah's Book Club)

Leo Tolstoy

Penguin Classics, 2004

A deeply human book that repays many re-readings
Why on earth would anyone bother to write another review of so famous and exhaustively-studied a book as "Anna Karenina"? The world has changed immensely since the book was written in the late 19th century. Reviews have probably also changed over the years, ...

Cry Wolf (Alpha and Omega, Book 1)

Patricia Briggs

Ace, 2008

Mercy fans: This is a great read!
Previous reviewers gave excellent recaps of the story, so I'll keep this short and sweet: If you like the Mercedes Thompson series as much as I do this is a great read. Cry Wolf offers more insight into Bran (Alpha of the American Alphas), his enforcer/son Charles, ...

Seams to Me: 24 New Reasons to Love Sewing

Anna Maria Horner

Wiley, 2008

Love this book!!!
I LOVE this book! It is full of fresh, unique projects that I can't wait to get started on. The photos are beautiful and inspiring and the directions are clear and very detailed (unlike some sewing books). There is a pocket with full-sized patterns in the back of ...

Blood Memory (Berkley Prime Crime Mysteries)

Margaret Coel

Berkley Hardcover, 2008

Not quite Father John O'Maley and Vicki Holden
I am a long-time fan of the Windy River Reservation mystery series, and I was a bit disappointed when I got this book to see that it's about a different heroine. But Coel can write, and she sprinkles such fascinating native and Arapaho history in her books, so I ...

What Happened to Anna K.: A Novel

Irina Reyn

Touchstone, 2008

Smooooth as Butter
After reading some of the reviews of this book, I decided to take a different route with my review. I guess the plot and basic summary of this book have been made very clear, so there's no need for me to restate that the protagonist, Anna, is an unhappy 37 year old ...

Last-Minute Patchwork + Quilted Gifts

Joelle Hoverson

Stewart, Tabori and Chang STC Craft Melanie Falick Book, 2007

My go-to how-to book
I bought this book for the inspiration and beautiful photos, and it's worth having for those qualities alone. The author's taste is impeccable (without being imperious), and she often combines fabrics in fresh ways. I love the melding of modern and traditional ...

Elmo's Big Lift-And-look Book (Great Big Board Book)

Anna Ross

Random House, 1994

Stimulating, fun, and educational, too!
I bought this book for a friend's child years ago, and knew I'd want to buy it for my own child one day, too. So, my little guy just turned a year old recently, and happens to be a big Sesame Street fan. When this book arrived, he got so excited to see Elmo on the ...

The Becoming (The Anna Strong Chronicles, Book 1)

Jeanne C. Stein

Ace, 2006

A Pretty Good Read
I haven't read many Urban Vampire novels so I really don't have a 'ton' of books to compare it to but I have to say I will keep reading the series because I enjoyed it. The writing style is easy on the mind and the twists and turns in the plot keep me turning the ...
